Hello, Kitten & Dawgs! My wonderful, late in-laws were big into gardening back much of their lives until it became too much for them to manage when they hit late 70s and early 80s. My MIL did a lot of canning and we benefited from the laborous works but it was truly labor of love because this is what gave them joy. Over the years, my MIL gave us a number of jars of canned green beans. Mmm, were they good. I usually returned the jars but I kept some and when she got to the point that she was ready to part with her stash of Mason jars she told me to take what I wanted and gladly claimed several. Today’s prompt, I sketedh JARS and JELLY.

I welcome anyone who wants to add their post URL to my not-so Wordless Wednesday linky party during the April A to Z Challenge!

April is National Jazz Appreciation Month. Are you a fan? If so what’s a favorite you’d recommend to someone new to jazz listening? I wouldn’t call myself a fan but I do enjoy jazz mewsic.

2. Mandolin, ukulele, harp, accordion or banjo…which would you be most interested in learning to play? Or do you already play one of the instruments listed? I think I’d like to learn how to play either a mandolin or ukulele.

3. Do you judge a book by it’s cover? Elaborate. You may answer in either/both the literal or figurative sense of the word. Yes, I literally judge a book by its cover. If doesn’t look right, I pass over it. Figuratively I do this all the time with people and it’s something I’m working through to not do, too.

4. According to a recent study the ten most nutritious foods are-almonds, cherimoya (supposed to taste like a cross between a pineapple/banana), ocean perch, flatfish (such as flounder and halibut), chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, swiss chard, pork fat (shocking! but I don’t think they mean bacon), beet greens, and red snapper. Are any of these foods a regular part of your diet? Any you’ve never ever tasted? Which would you be most inclined to add to your diet? Almonds would be the most regular of these foods that I eat but none of the rest appeal to me enough to go out of my way to add to my diet.

5. Besides a major holiday what is the most recent thing you’ve celebrated with your people? Tell us how. I guess I’d have to say the life of my late FIL. He passed away at the end of last month at the age of 95. Everything about this man is a celebration and we were so blessed to have him in our lives for so long. Now, he’s in heaven with Jesus and the love of his life for 67 years, my MIL. May you both RIP!

6. Insert your own random thought here. I thought with it being National Jazz Appreciation month that I shared this YT discovery of relaxing jazz mewsic. Enjoy!

Hopefully, sharing my sketches every day will encourage you to do something that interests you that you’ve put off because like me you just didn’t think you could do it. My advice is, just do it! Maybe, you’ll be surprised at what you can do like me! Thanks for making me apart of your day. Don’t forget to leave your footprints in comments with your signature (URL) so I can find my way back to you. Please let me know if you’re a new follower, so I can do the return favor. I realized the importance of building social networks. You might find me participating in my usual daily blog hops but right now I’m heading off to link up with other fellow AtoZers and you’re invited to come along. Join me tomorrow for more Creating iPad Art Sketches!
