The Unsanitary Chef


Chef: I a gonna make you a lasagna, and its a gonna be Succulent.

Patron: Can I kindly ask that you wash your hands.

Chef: It's gonna be Succulent!

Patron: O.K...I work for a Health Unit, and it's imperative that you practice cleanliness and demonstrate a sensitivity to being hygenic. Have you heard of our "Safe Food Counts" Program? It requires all restuarants to undergo a health safety inspection?

Chef: Succulent.

If I told you, you would've had to be there. Trust me. I was, and I wish I wasn't.

Illustration Friday - Pale

Choose to do a Victorian style illustration for this week’s IF theme. The PALE face was the inspiration to this porcelain beauty. Thought that if the fabric and hair were busy enough it would all mesh together and the simplicity of the face would pop out. Not sure it comes across though.

Enjoy,

The Farmer, The Pig and my Uncle?


This illustration first came about when I was discussing the Local agriculture industry and that not your every day farmer will enroll in a post secondary education. The selected few that do, are called an “Aggy”. While in no way does this represent an Aggy it does have some elements of hometown farmer charm.

 On a further note,

When my Dad (Kenny) gets out of form and shows his happy side that’s filled with joy, laughter and knee slappin hoe down, throw down, “bring it” type shenanigans, I can always count on him to say “ I haven’t had this much fun since the pigs ate my little brother”. When he first pulled that out of his repertoire, I was laughing uncontrollable ( note: he does not, nor has he ever, had a brother, only a sister) , it was definitely a “had to be there kinda moment”. So this goes out to you dad….and the pig that ate your little brother, we wish he could be here to laugh it up with us…

Loosey Goosey


Heard this phrase during a meeting today, made me think of this overly relaxed goose, down in the Caribbean, sucking on an ice cold mojito, jammin out to some old school Public Enemy with Spring being the furthest from his mind.

Wasn’t sure how it was correctly spelt, leave it to Merriam Webster to have a secured location for this forgotten phrase – Loosey Goosey  = notably loose or relaxed : not tense  loosey–goosey attitude>

Funny how some words have their place, personally I would like to see someone resurrect the word “Rad” start throwing that around during a meeting. Yikes.

From one night owl to another...


Was sent a Night Owl by text  [8>]< , was actually kinda funny lookin. Made me think about what else I could create with the symbols on my phone. Yes I do realize that phones are actually quite capable of sending pictures, videos and music. Simple as it was, It was fun to recreate the owl, although I must say, nothing beats the pencil!
