Recipe Book, 5-6-7-8

As I have already mentioned, in a previous post, I have been experimenting in my kitchen lately and subsequently illustrating my recipe book. It fits the picture of the domesticated artist, a role on which I have not set my mind yet, although it appears, to me, to be less of a compromise considering the alternatives in a country of foul employers and economic crisis. Here are four more pages, three with cheek-pea recipes and one for broccoli. I remember being fascinated from the shape of the cheek-peas in 2007, when I decided to plant a few, on a piece of cotton soaked in water. Back then I was still making the big soft hanging sculptures in the school of Fine Arts. I wanted to make a full study on the shapes and make a small narrative, connecting it with the relevant princess. The cheek pea would be hanging from an umbilical cord, from the ceiling, as proof of the improper but sweet premise that she accepted it in her bed, and not under her mattress, as the silly tale tells. What would their offspring look like?
I never made it, but I am developing into an excellent cheek-pea cook.
I have modified the text so as to render it undecipherable, since this is not my cooking blog. For more info feel free to read the post titled "recipe book, first four". Click on image to ENLARGE.
