Radish and Melon
Radish and Melon
About This Painting:
Watermelon meets Radish, fruits and vegetable painting. I need some green with all of this snow.
Red Radish Pickles:
Here is my red radish pickles recipe. You can mix the radishes with summer baby Kirby cucumber and/or baby eggplant. After 1 to 2 days of waiting - depending on the size of the vegetables that you are using; smaller vegetables are pickled in a shorter period than the larger ones – they are ready to eat.
These pickles area healthy, delicious snack anytime of the day.
1 ½ pounds assorted small summer radishes, thoroughly rinsed and leaves cut off
1 tablespoon sea salt
6 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
¼ cup mirin (sweet cooking wine)
2 teaspoons salt
In a medium bowl combine 2 cups water and1 tablespoon sea salt, and submerge the radishes for 4 hours at room temperature. In a saucepan bring the mirin to a simmer. Add the sugar, 2 teaspoons sea salt, rice vinegar and ¾ cup water and cook the mixture over medium heat until the sugar and salt dissolve, stirring continuously with a spoon. Turn off the heat and cool the liquid. After 4 hours soaking, rinse the radishes briefly under running cold tap water. Drain the radishes well and place them into a pickling pot or a glass or plastic container*. Pour the cooled pickling liquid over the radishes in the pot or container, press the radishes with an inner pressing board, and cover the container with a lid. Refrigerate for 2 days before serving.
*When you are using a glass or plastic container which does not come with a inner pressing board such as the picture with a special pickling pot shows, place a clean flat plate, which is slightly smaller size than the container, on top of the radishes, and place about 2 pounds of weight objects – a food can, large stone or exercise weight – on top of the plate. The weight objects should be placed in a Ziploc bag so that they do not have a direct contact with the pickling liquid.

Sleeping Bear Dunes
Sleeping Bear Dunes
About This Painting: The park is named after a Chippewa legend of the sleeping bear.
According to the legend, an enormous forest fire on the western shore of Lake Michigan drove a mother bear and her two cubs into the lake for shelter, determined to reach the opposite shore. After many miles of swimming, the two cubs lagged behind. When the mother bear reached the shore, she waited on the top of a high bluff. The exhausted cubs drowned in the lake, but the mother bear stayed and waited in hopes that her cubs would finally appear. Impressed by the mother bear's determination and faith, the Great Spirit created two islands (North and South Manitou Island) to commemorate the cubs, and the winds buried the sleeping bear under the sands of the dunes where she waits to this day.
The "bear" was a small tree-covered knoll at the top edge of the bluff that, from the water, had the appearance of a sleeping bear. Wind and erosion have caused the "bear" to be greatly reduced in size over the years. Today only a small remnant remains.

The 12 Days of Christmas
12 Drummers Drumming
About This Painting:
The ‘twelve drummers drumming" were the twelve points of belief expressed in the Apostles’ Creed: belief in God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, that Jesus Christ was born of the Virgin Mary, made man, crucified, died and arose on the third day, that he sits at the right hand of the father and will come again, the resurrection of the dead and life everlasting.
