Broccoli Drawing
February 19th, 2008 by Leora
Here’s a drawing I did for a post I am planning. The post is going to be about getting kids to eat healthy. Or about giving up trying. Probably both. See “Broccoli for dessert“…

You are very talented!
Thank you. Now you have discovered the real reason I blog. The rest is just commentary.
Wonderful! Really very nice. Can’t tell what you used – pencil?
Gail,
Yes, pencil, though officially I think I should say “graphite”? I did this drawing in about ten minutes. When I scanned it in, it got a bit of light cast into it (which made a bit of a purple cast on it), so I photoshopped that out, but some of the cast was left on the drawing; see, for example, under my signature. The “cast” added a bit more shadow to the drawing, an effect that I like.
Looks delicious. It’s one of the most difficult foods to cook properly.

I used to hide veggies by making a vegetable base for soup – cooked potatoes, carrots, onions, sweet potatoes and zucchini then put it through the grinder and freeze in portions. Then when I’d make a soup, I’d add a block of the veggie base.
Also I’d cut the sweet potatoes like I would the carrots…
Did you ever write the post?
Mother in Israel,
I just added a link to the Broccoli for Dessert post. Thanks for reminding me that I need to add links between related posts.
