DAY 17 TILL DAY 20 OF THE 100 DAY PROJECT

From now on I'll be drawing the foods that I grew up eating (some only on special occasions..never mind).
They are not Vegan!



The names of the dishes will be first in Portuguese (original name) and then translated in English
Day 17: Arroz de marisco (Seafood Rice, with prawns, mussels and clams). Dislike mussels and clams and anything with this texture....blarggghhhh
Day 18: Lapas com manteiga de alho e uma fatia de limao (Limpets in garlic butter with a slice of lemon to drizzle over the limpets.... Delicious!!!)
Day 19: Bolo de Arroz (Rice Cake). One of my sons' favourite cakes. Too dry for me
Day 20: Espetada com milho frito (Espetada: Meat in a skewer made with laurel branch, to the meat is added coarse sea salt, garlic and bay leaves and is barbecued. Milho frito is a type polenta with dark green cabbage that is cooked first and 2 days after fried for better taste) Delicious!!!

DAY 1 TILL DAY 6 OF THE 100 DAY PROJECT

   This year I decided after last year fiasco of painting flowers (totally out of my comfort zone) that I should sketch the food that I make. 
   I love cooking and I like to convert all (not really...some are impossible)  the tradicional food that I grew with into Vegan food!
   There will be a mixture of british food and Madeiran (Portuguese) food and ...maybe from other places too!



Day 1: Cinnamon Rolls
Day 2: Focaccia with olives, onions and ketchup
Day 3: Chocolate Salami (portuguese: Salame de Chocolate)
Day 4: Bolo do Caco (traditional Madeiran bread) with mushrooms in garlic butter. This bread is not a daily staple. We eat in special occasions. They sell it with garlic butter spread (or without if you ask). It's delicious!!!!
Day 5: Salted Caramel Custard pie with biscuit base. The custard is made by scratch!
Day 6: Peanut Butter Fudge (my son's favourite) too sweet for me!



The materials used were: Winsor and Newton watercolour
                                         Sakura Pigma Micron 005
                                         Canson Art Book One (Sketchbook)
