WWC: sour and salty

i very nearly copped out again this week on the WWC, but decided to pull it together and snap some pictures this morning before work. since two MSPaint entries in a row would be pushing it a little. go see the always-lovely tink if you're interested in participating!

this week's words were sour and salty. at 8am - before coffee, people - i'm afraid i'm pretty darn literal, not very creative, and a slave to materials close at hand. so i give you sour:

and salty:

I KNOW. who would have thought to use SALT for SALTY? donations to the Alice's Brain Trust welcome.

to make up for it, i suggest you go peruse this set on flickr instead, which is an evening we spent flicking a chinese yo-yo around while bella practiced her circus techniques. she's got some air for a teeny little cat :-)

edited to add: boy pictured here is not The Boy

  7. I actually loved the salt & sour pics you took! Very nice, fresh colors.

    Bella is quite the jumper. I wonder if there's an olympics for cats. She could qualify as a jumper I think.

  10. I like the color composition you used in your salt picture. (I think we all used salt!!)

    Have you ever submitted a photo for LOLCATS? Bella's pictures look like good candidates. :)

  11. I went very literal with things around the house too. Then I added some bonus shots. Feeling guilty, who? Looks like you and I were on the same page this week.
    Your literal pictures are however beautiful.

  12. As Steve Martin used to say (before he got all sophisticated and started writing pithy plays about artists and all)

    Well, EXCUUUUUUUUSE ME!

    I posted salt too. Why not? What is saltier than salt, after all? Who are we to judge?

    Besides, I LOVE salt. There was even a fairy tale written about it.

    I think.
