Lunchtime Entertainment

I hate to admit this, but I've been a little lax in making sure there's actually food in my house. As a result, we've been eating out a bit more than usual.

Today, ZBoy and I went to the bank to get some money for the weekend, and on our way back home stopped at Brooma's for lunch. It was quite the crowd, so we sat outside on the porch. It was warm, with a nice breeze and we were in the shade, so it wasn't bad.

But we were out there all alone, so we started playing hangman on the little pad of paper I keep in my bag. Four games later, we switched to tic-tac-toe. After two games, we decided that no one would ever win. ZBoy took the pad away from me and drew eyeballs in the "O"s and added a snake's mouth. Only it looked more like a duck. A really angry duck. He slid it back over to me and I added an outline for a head and neck.

Meet Cramb.

Well, that was fun. So much fun, we didn't stop. Z drew a couple of heads - Dr. Cheddar.


Then Dr. Cheddar eating cheese (with a straw, I guess). I took the pad away from him and drew a Mrs. Cheddar - a little irked that Dr. Cheddar was spending all his time in the lab eating cheese.



Then we started on other characters. The pig started out pretty well. Then I added what was supposed to be a body of a pig sitting down and trying to scratch its ears. Only it looked like he was looking with horror at a bad manicure and had droopy pig boobs. I really shouldn't be drawing bodies....

Yeah.
And finally, Princess Karaka - loosely modeled on Kida. Only with a really bulbous nose, evil eyes and a pointy backside. She looks like she's stalking something, but that's supposed to be her tongue sticking out

Maybe we should rethink this cartooning career...

Good way to take your mind off of waiting to get served.

That sounds like a fun way to spend time together. And I have to say - the pig with the droopy boobs is my favorite! LOL

Remember when you drew my outline on the furry wall?

I love those pics and I think it's such a neat idea for both of you to create a picture that way.

I thought Kila was wearing a princess hat!

I thought those were pig teats, too.
