all peppered up


















Pepper painting by Liz Coomes in a museum setting
My spice girl sister sent me this.  It is her spicy painting, a hot green pepper and some garlic.
She found this really fun site to add your artwork to a museum setting. (Click on Museum r) What a fun way to pepper up your work. (and to feel like a Master!)

  5. What adds spice to my day, you ask?

    When my Hubby leaves in the morning we hug. It energizes our connection cord.
    We he returns in the evening, we hug hello at the door, and it replenishes our connection cord.
    That "peppering" puts a smile on both of our faces.

    Purple Flowers,
    I love the way you pepper your day.
    I bet a "Piano" would pepper your day too.
    Enjoy!

  7. What spices up my days lately- is seeing that Liz is posting more of her gorgeous work! Painting with no guidelines and with wild abandon spices up a day for me.
    Can't wait to see a little spice and check out this site....

  9. Hmm... adding spice. I have to keep this clean. Well, my favorite spice is Old Bay. I can put it on anything and every thing. Even popcorn so that spice adds spice to my day. My other spice is a sweet kiss from my DH. We'll just leave it right there for public blog purposes:)

    I love this painting. Liz is so talented. It would look great in my kitchen. Any kitchen!

  10. Peppers are one of my fave foods.... we grow them, but it's a mystery as to what makes each one hot or not. Even from the same plant. Either way, I LOVE the painting!!!! xoh
    p.s...don't include me in the contest, since i just won the saki cups :-)

    Ok do I like spice. Hmm in my food I really can't tolerate a lot of it.

    I adore cumin, clove, cinnamon...

  21. I love spice and add it to almost all my food. The BF is from Sri Lanka so we like it HOT around here. And what peppers my day is when the BF's parents come to our house and cook dinner for us! Gotta love the in-laws for that (ok, future in-laws).

  24. This painting is HOT filled with FIRE! I love it!

    Oh dear, the hard part here is remember your questions (my short term memory is rusty). I'll give it a try.

    I am a spice girl, who loves when her jalapenos pepper walks through the door. It makes me go banana peppers with joy.

    Have a salsa of a day my friend! xoxo

  27. I love cumin, yet lately I've been ditching it for the fairer coriander.

    Can't do peppers :-( they don't like my tummy. But aren't they just the prettiest vegetable?

  28. As many of our grandmothers use to say, "Variety is the spice of life." To me that means the newness of everyday things from our April snow here in MN to a funny email sent from a friend.
