GAILS DONUTS + A GOOD-NIGHT! - 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 pastel

DONUT WAR!
GAILS DONUTS + A GOOD-NIGHT!
4 1/2" x 4 1/2" pastel
8" square archival white matt, glass + black frame
SOLD - PRIVATE COLLECTOR

Monday is here, so rise and shine with a gorgeous dripping, 
chocolate donut . . .  or two . . .  or three. 

But alas, good things come to an end and the War 
is at a stand-off with peace in Donut Land. I've had so 
much fun with my friend and foe, Kelley MacDonald,
but am off to other adventures. Plus I really have to get 
rid of a few extra pounds.

Many thanks to my sister-in-law, Gail, for these wonderful
props of homemade donuts! 

Sweet good-byes Kelley!

    Wait... home MADE donuts? I might just have to get in the Prius... I think I can make it there for just a few tanks full of gas...

    I will miss our War, too, my friend, but we'll keep the Cold War going... and keep an eye on each other!

    Thanks everyone for your comments and interest during the Donut Wars, but time for some needed changes. Kelley is such a wonderful playmate, so sure will sporadically come up with something fun and exciting with her in the future!
