Let me eat my spud!

This morning, my dog Smola stole a potatoe from a basket in the kitchen and tried to eat it. Unfortunately, my mother noticed the missing potatoe and darted in the living room to pick it up from Smola's mouth. It was not an easy task to get it back, Smola was growling and its fur was bristling. Eventually, both got tired of the potatoe and Smola forgot it and left it lying around somewhere in the flat.

New illustration! I think I'm going to stop drawing faces - I've become a little too obsessed with faces :) I'll start soon to make some cards for Easter - If I find time.

The Raven and The Fox

Perch'd on a lofty oak,

Sir Raven held a lunch of cheese;

Sir Fox, who smelt it in the breeze,

Thus to the holder spoke:─

"Ha! how do you do, Sir Raven?

Well, your coat, sir, is a brave one!

So black and glossy, on my word, sir,

With voice to match, you were a bird, sir,

Well fit to be the Phoenix of these days."

Sir Raven, overset with praise,

Must show how musical his croak.

Down fell the luncheon from the oak;

Which snatching up, Sir Fox thus spoke:─

"The flatterer, my good sir,

Aye liveth on his listener;

Which lesson, if you please,

Is doubtless worth the cheese."

A bit too late, Sir Raven swore

The rogue should never cheat him more.



Jean de La Fontaine





Maître Corbeau, sur un arbre perché,

Tenait en son bec un fromage.

Maître Renard, par l'odeur alléché,

Lui tint à peu près ce langage :

"Hé ! bonjour, Monsieur du Corbeau.

Que vous êtes joli ! que vous me semblez beau !

Sans mentir, si votre ramage

Se rapporte à votre plumage,

Vous êtes le Phénix des hôtes de ces bois. "

A ces mots le Corbeau ne se sent pas de joie ;

Et pour montrer sa belle voix,

Il ouvre un large bec, laisse tomber sa proie.

Le Renard s'en saisit, et dit : "Mon bon Monsieur,

Apprenez que tout flatteur

Vit aux dépens de celui qui l'écoute :

Cette leçon vaut bien un fromage, sans doute. "

Le Corbeau, honteux et confus,

Jura, mais un peu tard, qu'on ne l'y prendrait plus.

Satisfied

At last! I feel alive!

I told you in one of my previous articles that I had not the time to take new photos and that it was killing me. Yesterday, for the first time I pulled myself together and I gave up for a couple of hours my revision and homeworks to satisfy my desire for taking photos!! I'm so relieved now! I had felt as if I were dying of starvation. Here the two first photos of the new series "Oiseau" that you'll find in my Gallery.

Super Green Heroine

This is Super Green Heroine! Her favourite colour is green - of course. She is so fond of green trees and their colourful leaves that she has decided to save them from naughty people who kill them as they are too tall and hide the view from people's windows or because it is too tiresome to take care of them. These naughty people do not like trees! What a disgrace!!

Super Green Heroine turns red when she gets worked up so beware! When she turns red, she becomes very aggressive and roots every naughty tree-haters very deeply into the ground so they will not escape and they will choke to death! Her favourite tree is the Christmas Tree and she loves cinnamon like me! :)
