Is That Time Again.........

This year's cocoa
was dry and ready
to roast.
We had to wait for a
hot, sunny and breezy
day.



The trusty
Porkert grinder
was dusted down
and assembled.


and the
still warm beans
shelled,
 (by him with
the big hands)
ground.
 (by her with
the muscle)




and then
rolled into balls
in the palm of my hand.
The house was full
of the scent of
chocolate.
Our ears rang with the
sound of people passing
and saying
"I want some of that
when you're done."

Decisions Decisions

Painting
drawing
sketching
research
experimentation
illustration
construction
cooking
looking
erasing
finding
losing
thinking
doing
taking
 
 
all of the above, flicking through old magazines and making a scrap book to remind me of where to put the energy.
