DEVILED EGGS

I am sorry for posting this so late, but I cannot shake this flu!  

I hope each of you had a wonderful Easter Holiday!  I hope your Easter Baskets were overflowing with chocolate, and your day was spent with your family, hiding eggs with your children and grandchildren, and gathering around the table for your Easter Feast! 

The Holiday Dinner menu usually begins with a Brown Sugar Glazed Ham, Potato Salad, Green Beans, and Deviled Eggs. Wow, I am getting hungry as I type this!!! I have an interesting recipe to share with you while we are on the topic of food! One year for Easter, I fixed Pickled Deviled Eggs! They were delicious! They looked so pretty displayed with the rest of the meal. Everyone really loved them! 

Here is the recipe if anyone wants to try them for their next Easter Dinner or just for fun! I boil my eggs until they are hard-boiled. I let them cool and peel them, I put them in a jar of pickled beet juice and then in the Frig for a day or two, depending on the color they get from the beet juice. They usually turn a beautiful pink color that I adore! I remove them from the jar and make the deviled eggs as I usually would. Very easy and very pretty.

Our Theme this week is not very pretty, but just as fun! We are going to create Deviled Eggs with a little Devil in them! Think red, horns, fires, etc.!!!! And I dare you to serve these eggs for dinner!! I really can't wait to see what you will come up with for your version of Deviled Eggs! I have posted a page of images to help you get inspired to make your eggs devil-style!


Here is my version of Deviled Eggs!!

BAD GIRL

 OK.......MY BAD!!! 

First of all. I posted Deviled Eggs for the next Theme, but I intended to post that theme later this month. And also once again, late in posting the Theme for this week!!

 I have a good excuse!!  I have the flu so I am not feeling well, in fact, really "monstrously" awful from the murky crud that lingers and will not go away! I think when I get better this would be a great theme for the challenge blog...

The Creeping Crud!!!!  

So on with the Theme for this Week...

When I was a little girl, I had very long, curly hair and was a good little girl for the most part but at times, as children will be, I was very mischievous, prone to loud temper tantrums, and so very stubborn! So, when I was unruly and misbehaving, my mother would recite this little poem to me to remind me that I must be a good little girl and be on my best behavior because bad little girls were naughty and not very pleasant to be around! We would end up laughing at the end of the poem and I am sure she recited the poem to distract me from whatever made me misbehave and lighten my mood so that once again, I would return back to the good little girl I was!

Here is the Poem...

"There once was a little girl, 

who had a little curl,

right in the middle of her forehead.

When she was good, 

she was very good

but when she was bad, 

she was Horrid"!!!!!


Now it is your turn to create your Bad Girl! 
The artwork you have been creating for the Challenge Blog Themes are really amazing and so I have no doubt this week's artwork will be the same! 
Keep using your wonderful imagination to its fullest, as it is truly a precious treasure to see what others do not see, and then with colors and images, interpret what you envision onto your canvas!
I have posted a Page of images for you to use in your artwork! 
Now let's be BAD GIRLS!!! 

 Here is my 
Bad Girls Artwork!!!

DARK ROMEO AND JULIET

 

We all know the story. Two ill-fated lovers. A blood feud between two families. A sad tale of passion, violence, and death. With our Dark Romeo and Juliet Theme in mind, create your own version of their love and death in your artwork for the challenge this week. 

Go see the Dark Romeo and Juliet Page I created of Free Images and you will find a whole set of images that are from the Gecko Galz Challenge Blog. You may use them in your artwork for the challenge. I love these Rennaissance Images and thought they were perfect for our theme this week. A Big Thank you goes out to the Gecko Galz for allowing me to use these images!!


Here is my Tale of Woe, 
A story of Juliet and her Romeo






***Sorry I was late posting the Challenge but I
