Pasta Dreams in noodle pajamas - Happy Meal by Leticia Plate
Portland, Maine, USThinking about my happy meal, visions of pasta keep appearing... but how could I choose between ramen and spaghetti? So here’s a manifestation of my pasta daydreams 🍜🍝🌟
Margarita by Cornelia Duemling
Hamburg, Hamburg, DEFrozen Margarita is one of our go to cocktails. A long time ago we looked up a recipe which we liked very much. I made a screenshot of it and ended up sending hubs (who makes Margaritas for me 😍) every time he needed the recipe a message with the image of the recipe. Finally I got so tired of scrolling through my message thread or images that I decided to illustrate the recipe once and for all! Now he knows exactly where to look when he wants to make me a frozen Margarita! And you, too, if you like!
I decided to forgo the instruction for the salt rim on the glass, as I do not care for it. But if you want one, just rub the rim of your glass with lime juice and dip it into coarse salt, and voilá! Enjoy!
Chicken Pot Pie by Senia
Santa Ana, California , USIt’s hard to beat the warmth and comfort of a creamy, golden chicken pot pie. I didn’t have this until I was a teen, and I was immediately hooked! This illustration shows a basic collection of ingredients, but there are so many things that can be added to it.
Pickled Magnolia Petals by Olga Akbarova

Broccoli Soup by Alison Kolesar
