The Artist & Food

09/18/2008 07:43:35 / full of life

First thing in the morning, I stumble to the frig for juice. After I feed the dog, I have coffee at the computer. To the second cup of coffee (now getting dressed), I add a cookie.

After yoga, it’s off to the local coffee shop for iced chai and a scone.


Mid morning and my stomach is beginning to cuss at me. Let’s see what is left from supper the night before. Cold goulash! Mmmmm, my favorite. Scarf this down with morning vitamins.


Working in the studio, I need my trusty M&M’s and those really crunchy potato chips. Ooops! Need fresh coffee after missing the turpentine jar.


One o’clock and I need a break. How about lunch? Who has time to cook? A fist full of carrots and I’ll take the V8 to my work table to pack for the post office, after adding lemon, hot sauce and salt. Oooops!  Good thing paper towels are a fixture.


Hubby calls and he will be late for supper. Good, I can get more work done so I’ll need a cup of tea and a cookie. No, had one; I’ll have a cucumber - before the tea. There are some things that one must not mix together on one’s pallette.


Next thing I know, another painting is finished and it is time to consider supper. Have to run to the art supply store so we’ll just stop for pizza on the way. Get a large one to take left overs home for breakfast - another favorite.


Making templates for eBay, I need a smoothie. Cherry is my favorite and I make good ones.


Wind down in front of the TV with a movie. Of course cheese crackers and popcorn are just the ticket.


The phone rings and it’s a client calling to pay for an order and asks what I am doing these days. After I do this monologue for them, they comment on how busy I am and they just don’t know how I do it. I reply, "Well, I have to stay busy; it keeps me from eating so much."

LOL!!!!  I would call that a balanced diet!  You balance sugar and starches very nicely...and you do run through the cupboards before the expiration date on the package gives up the ghost!  But...a recent study has shown that vitamins may cause an agonizing early death with complications if consumed with good intentions.
