30 day painting challenge - trying to play "Catch- Up" but at this point I'm sure I've been "lapped"! I don't even remember what # painting this is. I'm still working out the details of my painting series "30 days Hath September" – it will get finished!  http://lesliesaeta.blogspot.com/

So, I love my ketchup (not sure when it changed from catsup) on meat - I rarely eat it with fries. The sweetness of regular ketchup with fries can be sickening. If you feel the same, I've got a solution for you. Heinz has now produced this balsamic vinegar (barely legible in the painting I know) option. It is a strong, more savory flavor than the other kind and I now prefer it, but still only on meat of course. 

Anyway, after using this bottle for dinner (hopefully you can see it sliding down inside the jar from the top) I sat it on the counrter. Then, as we artists know, the call of the light coming through the window lighting up that red made it almost impossible to eat (notice I said almost). I photographed it after dinner and painted it today. Sometimes it takes very little to make me happy - I like this one because I can taste the new flavor when I look at it! The glow in the background is the "kiss" of sun on the fridge in the background.

    1. Thank you Nancy - it's not everyone who can appreciate a bottle of ketchup!
