Food: Pumpkin Soup with garlic bread

Hello mothers and food lovers:-)
From times to times, I heard mothers complaining about their children´s appetite.  As mother of a 3 years old  boy I do research to find out the best way to make him eat healthy foods like this Pumpkin Soup with garlic bread. Find more tips to make you preschoolers children eat  here: http://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/bhcv2/bhcarticles.nsf/pages/Eating_tips_for_children_(4)_preschoolers?open 


The recipe for the soup was taken at http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/5175/pumpkin+soup and used my imagination to make my son eat cerise tomatoes:-)


Gudden Appetit,

Flor

Illustration: The Still Pretty Girl!

Thanks God is Friday:-)

Did I told you about my love for illustration? Oh, yes...I am a multifaceted woman:-)

Who said hair frames the face? Not in this blog, not with this young woman, fighting a breast cancer. From my point of view she can use my brand new design of make up using neon colors and a crocheted chic white flower in her bald head to become the prettiest girl on the block.

Take a look to the process:

1. I have a ritual to design and arranging all colored pencils by shade is the first step. In the meantime I can imagine, visualize what I am going to do.


2. Then I prepare only the material I will need at the moment.

3. Starting my "STILL A PRETTY GIRL"...


4...Finishing with a touch of chic crochet.


5. The Pretty Lady started to smile and said: "I really need to find a very nice frame".


6. I said: "Anyway, Still a Pretty Lady, with frame or without a hair frame".:-). Remember to fight cancer InStyle!


7. A close up to the chic crocheted white flower.


To all women in the world, fighting cancer now, I wish you all the best and get well soon with a flower in your beautiful bald head.

Still Smiling, 
Flor
