πŸŽ¨πŸ˜‹ Thursday Art and Dinner Date: Trains

 


Welcome my Friends, to Thursday's Art and Dinner Date! 😊😊

🎨For our 🎨 Art Date 🎨, today's optional prompt is Trains! Bugs Bunny is off his rails with that load of carrots he's hauling! Please feel free to share any art you've created, we would love to see it! 



For our πŸ˜‹ Dinner Date!! πŸ˜‹ I made a delicious Potato and Leek Soup! (See below for the video/recipe!)



I also made a skillet bread to go with the soup. Here's the very easy recipe:

1. Proof 1 & 1/4 tsp active dry yeast in 385 ml warm water (100-105 F).
2. In a large bowl, mix 3 & 1/2 cups bread flour with 1 & 1/2 tsp salt.
3. Add yeast mixture, mix with spatula until it forms a sticky dough. (Make sure all flour is incorporated)
4. Toss some olive oil into the bowl, turn the dough a few times, cover and let rise in a warm spot for 90 minutes.
5. Preheat oven to 400 F.
6. Lightly oil your skillet with olive oil then wipe off excess. (My cast iron pan is a 12" but a 10" would make a better fit I think)
7. Place dough in pan and press out to fit the pan. Cover and let rest 30-45 minutes.
8. Bake 30-35 minutes until the top is lightly browned.



Have you seen the new Donald Sutherland stamp here in Canada? I love it! I bought a pack!

πŸŽ¨πŸ˜‹ Thursday Art and Dinner Date: Potions, Chili and a Live Stream!



Welcome my Friends, to Thursday's Art and Dinner Date! 😊😊 I'm back! I took a well-needed few months off and now I'm back to blogging! I still have tons of work on my plate, but I'm much better able to manage it now.

🎨For our 🎨 Art Date 🎨, today's optional prompt is Potions! Do you remember the Looney Tunes short where Tweety Bird drank the Hyde Potion? That scared me so much as a kid! Those creators really made Tweety look terrifying!

Please feel free to share any art you've created, we would love to see it! 



I have an announcement!
On Sunday October 15th, I'll be πŸ’₯LIVE πŸ’₯on my Rain's Kitchen and Garden YouTube channel! I'll be premiering a short film I created (it's a funny parody) and then I'll be sticking around to chat with my friends and followers! Click here for the link to the live stream. You need a Gmail account and a YouTube channel to join the chat BUT...you don't need to create a YT Channel with content, just click on "create channel" when prompted and that will allow you to chat. You can always watch without chatting or watch the replay if you like. Hope that made sense!



For our πŸ˜‹ Dinner Date!! πŸ˜‹ I made a really comforting Vegan Chili (I'll have the video and recipe up on Rain's Kitchen and Garden on Sunday).


Jack is still stable, the meds are helping with his nose tumour. He's really slowing down though. Raven is doing well, though hunting season has started and she's terrified of gunshots. Sigh! Baby Oscar is doing very well, no issues ever with him!





Here are my latest videos:




⬆️⬆️ For Rain Frances Art For Kids : How To Draw A Cat

⬆️⬆️ For Rain's Kitchen and Garden : Mexican Chicken Lasagna

⬆️⬆️ On my channel, Spiritual Rain, I've been reading fairy tales. My latest "Bedtime Stories Podcast" features the fairy tale The Singing Bone.

πŸŽ‡πŸŽ‡ Celebrating An Achievement! πŸŽ‡πŸŽ‡


I just wanted to send a big THANK YOU to all of my friends who have been so supportive of my efforts with my four YouTube channels! I've fallen in love with creating videos! 

I started my YouTube journey as a business venture. I even took a 3-month course on how to optimize your YouTube channel - which has proven to be very successful! 

Once my disability pension dries up, I will need added sources of income. Once you reach 1000 subscribers and have over 4500 hours of watch time on your channel, YouTube will "monetize" your videos. This means some ads will appear before videos and YouTube pays you a teeny tiny small percentage of money per minute watched. At first, I'm sure I will make probably one or two pennies per month at most! But as the channels grow, they very well could provide me with that added income I will need in 10 years time!

✨✨ Rain's Kitchen and Garden reached 1000 subscribers this past week!!! And I have over 11,000 watch hours. This was a goal I thought I would only reach in a few years time! This is a big achievement for me! ✨✨

Rain Frances Art is chugging along at just over 100 subscribers. I know that art tutorials are niche, and I'm very grateful for all of those who continue to support this channel! When I started this channel over a year ago, I really thought this would be the one that reached 1000 subs first! Lessons learned!

Rain Frances Art For Kids is quickly growing! I have about 130 subscribers there. This is such a fun channel and I'm so happy I started it! 

Spiritual Rain, which is my personal spiritual channel, has started to gain some popularity at just under 100 subscribers. I've met so many beautiful and kind people through the Tarot community on YouTube, it's been such a blessing!

Besides everything else that is going on in my life, I guess this explains why I'm such a busy bee!! 😊 

So thank you again my friends!  πŸ’—πŸ’—
