I told Lance over at Weisser Watercolours that I have a slight obsession with squirrels and would post one today in his honor, so here it is. 🙂
And an older one:
Jodi (Life in Between) requested the recipe for the cake I made for my son. I thought I’d post it here in case anyone else wants it, too.
Happy Friday and happy baking!
Teresa Robeson 何顥思 
Oh yay! Three good things :-). Looooove the squirrels!!! And the sweet, trusting frog.
Hmm… I think your recipe is a sign that I need to get an electric mixer. It’s been ages since I made a big round chocolate cake! Plus, I’m not getting enough frosting in my diet at the moment.

Thanks, Kath! I haven’t thought of any stories yet, but I definitely will. Been busy finishing other stories first…and working on other art for contests. 🙂

….how delightful! I’m reminded of the stories of Mr. Toad of Toad Hall (is that the correct name?) and the books I read as a boy called The Burgess Books (Grandfather Frog and Sammy The Jay, etc) — you have a great hand for illustrations, Rebecca. Thank you for the mention and the post.

This did make me chuckle! Lovely sketch. I’m a little hooked on squirrels too, and love frogs (lots in and around the pond!), so this gets full approval from me. 🙂
