All in the Bag

I bought this grocery bag to sketch way back in October about Halloween and All Souls Day.  I haven't had the opportunity and "bag" was on the list today.  Perfect!

Number 3 bag - grocery bag from H-E-B  In the Ohuhu sketchbook with Pentel Marker Pens.  Of course the yellow and pink don't show well.  Sigh....  Colored pencil might be a solution.  The bag is nice for groceries about 24 x 16 x 8 inches.  

For Scavenger Hunt 93  https://creativespark.art/threads/scavenger-hunt-from-life-93-nov-27-%E2%80%93-dec-6.6310/

The real thing....

 

We had a surprise yesterday evening.  Gene loves gadgets and we usually have battery operated salt and pepper shakers.  He got Joanna a tiny pocket pepper grinder years ago and they started the process.  We had many grinders over the years but haven't had any for a couple of years.  Our recent squeeze shakers broke and Larry surprised us with this rechargeable replacement.  They are charging now and look pretty nifty.  I'll let you know!  Thanks, Larry!!

The old hand squeeze shakers.


The new grinders charging.  I will sketch them soon.


You remember cutting down the big tree.  I remembered to check.  It is 27 inches in diameter and about 7 feet in circumference.  I only had the 6 ft. tape with me when I went out.  The stump comes up to the top of my chest so it was hard to reach my camera high enough to get the rings.  Pretty old tree.
