Tequila Rose

Got a new bottle of Tequila Rose yesterday, thanks to mom treating me! Found it at Stew Leonard's Wines. I had never been there before, it is a nice store and fairly new. At the checkout I was even given two shot glasses with the tequila rose logo on them. I will definitely go back there.

I'm using the drink as a way to keep warmer in the winter months, one shot and I feel warm and it tastes great too. Had it a few years back when one of my neighbors let me try it.

Online there are lots of recipes I may try some over the winter months, especially a Pink Russian and Capt Crunch. I hope I can find the other ingredients in those little bottles because I can't afford the big ones.

Have a great Sunday, and if you are starting in on Thanksgiving cooking or baking, I hope it all comes out delicious!!!

Happy Labor Day

Little Mamie is feeling in a bit of a funk these days, not even the beautiful moon can cheer her up. Meanwhile Ratsie is enjoying her 'Breakfast of Champions' which consists of coffee and cigarettes.

I have added some new items to my Zazzle store, above are mousepads printed with some of my earlier works, before I was overtaken by ratties. haha

There is free standard shipping until Tuesday for most items at Zazzle if total is $35+. Some restrictions apply, like skateboards and oversized items. It's all on their website.

I hope everyone has a happy and safe Labor Day! I am hoping to get a lot of drawing done.

Something a little different

Before I get to the something different I will show you what I came up with for ACEO theme week on eBay. (Search ACEO TW Sep). The theme is 'Harvest Festival' and the story is that before I could draw the harvest of squash, zucchini and eggplant, this rattie had grilled it up and put it in a roll with pesto. So I just had to draw her enjoying the harvest along with her soda and chips.



Now for the different. Below is an acrylic painting I did a few years back titled 'Death by Chocolate'. I have put it on a mug in my Zazzle store.



Zazzle has a lot of great items. If you love squirrels (and who doesn't?) you simply must check out the fabulous photography of poozybear. The shots she manages to get never cease to amaze me! She has other critters too.

Have a nice day and thanks for stopping by!

The Rats Start Summer

Although it is a bit on the chilly side here I decided to let my rats frolic like it's already a hot summer. I don't like the heat so would prefer to draw like it's hot than to actually be hot. So I have drawn Mr Rattie barbecuing at his grill and lounging in his wading pool.




Hope you enjoy the start of rattie summer. They are hoping to have a fun filled couple of months.

Happy New Year 2009

I'd like to wish you all a very happy and safe New Year. I can't believe another year has gone by already. To end my year on a festive note I have listed a one day auction on eBay, it will end tonight. It just seemed appropriate to end this on New Year's Eve, and to try out a one day auction.
