pencil, brush pen and pen & ink - Moleskin sketchbook
This past Sunday I finally found the time to bake carrot cupcakes topped with cream cheese icing. The cupcakes were lighter versions of carrot cake and the icing more fragrant with the addition of lemon zest.

During a walk around my neighbourhood this past fall I happened to spy a couple of old rusted industrial tanks. The two tanks were sitting in the vacant West Don Lands. I thought they looked striking and interesting because of their textures and colours. And, also due to the vast grey, gravelly surroundings in contrast. The area is slated to become a large residential area with public green space and also home of the athlete’s village for the 2015 Pan American Games.
Gary and I walked past the area a little more recently and saw that the tanks had been removed. For now you can still see where they were in the Wikipedia link for the West Don Lands.
