Friday Face OFF 6/29/23

 Welcome to Friday Face OFF. This is where you can show any kind of face in any medium. Let your imagination go wild. Then link your blog to this one, link up with MR. Linky and start leaving comments. Everyone who joins in shares such wonderful art pieces.

I should have made this post earlier in the day, like before I went to the dentist. I only had to have one tooth pulled. My dentist is the best I have ever had work on my teeth. However, having a tooth pulled at my age really takes it out of me. So forgive the short post. However, I want to thank all of you that join in. I will show the tutorial on this beauty next week.

 It started with a face like this. And I promis next week I will show you how I do it. It's so easy.

 

 

Here is one of the dead birds I created.

I can't tell you how much I love him.	Especially the burned meaty look.

I think I have to keep this one. 

Now for the featured artist.

This week is Gillena

 

I will also be linking up with Gillena

Again I appologise for the shot post and promise to make it up to you next week. Now it's time to show me your face. Thank you for joining in.

Hi Everyone!

I'm trying to get more active on the PC. It's coming back slowly. Today I'm joining Rain with TADD 

As for art, well you know what I am working on. Extremem Halloween for my upcoming show. I save those photos for my Friday Face OFF so you will have to come by tomorrow to see the new creatures I have made this week. I will also be showing how I take these faces and make them creepy.

I also started to sketch out a face this week. I'm afraid it is so light you may not be able to see it.

A bit of garden. We have had some sunshine and the garden is loving it.

These are growing in a pot on my deck.	The first Nasturtium bloom.
I don't know what these are but they are pretty. They came in a mix.	I have these growing in several places. Yes, I need to cut the grass here. LOL
Peas grow here in any weather. I am so thankful.	Next year I am going to grow them in a raised bed against the fence. That was Mr. M's idea.
I started these onions from onions. Got good roots started in water and set them in my window. You can see the post here.	I should have a great harvest of potatoes this year.
Oh and the onions are doing fantastic. They really love the cold spring.	These are just one bunch of carrots I have growing. The Borage is growing right on top of them
Finally some grey squash is taking off.	I should get some eggplant from this.

 The other night I had nothing for dinner. So I grabbed a jar of burger patties that I canned last year, along with some tomatoes and onions that I canned. I added some angle hair pasta with some carrots and brussles. We had the best meal ever. I was happy that the tomato and onions were a sweet taste. Not bitter at all.

Well that is it for now. 

Tomorrow I have to have some teeth pulled. lupus and especially sjogrens is very hard on teeth.

I'm thankful that I finally got into the dentist and he is a good one.

Bye Bye for now. 

Nicole.

 Hi Everyone!

Today we have sunshine. It has been a cold, overcast windy spirng and very hard on gardens. My neighbors and I keep notes together. All of our gardens are slow to yeild and all of us have lost many plants. However, in this cold weather the cabbage is doing great! It's a pretty plant too.

Since I took this photo the cabbage has doubled in size and almost ready to harvest.

A different cabbage from the one above that was ready for harvest.	Ready to cut and eat.
I cleaned, cut and fried the cabbage to along with Hungarian beef over rice. Just way too good.	I had to throw in this pizza because my half is all veggies. Mr. M'ms is left over Hungarian beef.
These carrot are laying over Fennel. The onion is so sweet, we can eat it like an apple. Uhhh I will put it into a dish. LOL	The was baked with the chicken with a bit of lemon, thyme, dill, and sage. OMG good.
Now for some art. Well, kinda. I have dozens of these faces. I get them at the thrift store.	All different sizes too. I have painted them and now I will create, yah, you know creepy faces out of them. LOL

 

 Now to get into Elizabeth's T-Party I must show a drink. This is fresh raspberry, frozen banana, frozen blueberry, fresh curly kale, and for the liquid I used Lemon Lime ICE Drink. I can't tell you how good this is.

I took 2 photos of my smoothie and they both turned out blurry. I mean hurt your eyes blurry. Google had a smoothie that looked just like mine. So, thank you Google.

I'm linking this up with Bleubeard and Elizabeth for a Tuesday Party. Stop by to see what everyone is doing.
