I’ve spent the morning getting rid of on-the-cusp bananas by baking them into things. More drawing should commence later - but at the moment I’m a bit frustrated because I tried logging into Tumblr via Firefox, but I can’t get it to get me to my dashboard - it kicks me right back to the log-in page.

I have ideas for watercolors, but whether I have the skill or time for them at the moment is another matter. Harumph.
