Eat at Your Own Risk


Illustration Wednesday: "Choose Your Own Adventure"
Nelson was hungry, and the cupcakes looked delicious. Little did he know, the moon monster waiting for him was also very hungry.
[Should Nelson go back to the spaceship? Turn to page 53. Does he choose to eat the cupcakes? Turn to page 68.]

Craving


When you are of average height and residing in a house of people who are far-above-average height, the good foods (like cookies and dried mangoes) seem to always end up on the highest shelf, the one usually reserved in average-height homes for seldom used kitchen items. I've become very skilled in the art of chair stacking / asking the giants for help.

Flying Pigs


A page in the bulletin was for "One Great Hour of Sharing" and had a picture of a man with a pig under each arm...so I drew a bunch of pigs.

Mean Ol' Cowboy


You can tell he's tough because of the barbed wire. And he's crushing some daisies.

Marta Solves the Tug-A-Jug Toy

video
The Tug-A-Jug is a treat dispensing dog toy that my dog Marta loves to play with. It has a narrow opening at one end (where only a few treats at a time can come out for a patient dog) and a screw-top lid on the other (which makes putting treats inside quick and easy for an impatient human). She usually can get a whole meal out of the Tug-A-Jug in about 7 or 8 minutes. But then Marta watched me put the treats in the lid side, and she decided it would be much more efficient for her to unscrew the lid, too. Turns out, you don't need opposable thumbs to do this!
