I couldn't find a place to eat lunch yesterday

in #steemitbloggers5 years ago (edited)

I was practicing organ yesterday, recording a couple of organ videos, writing blog posts in my church as I felt the need to go find something to eat. Usually I have lunch at the Vilnius University cafeteria at the History department but it was closed. Then I went to another cafe which is next to my church which was also reserved for some celebration. Then I got impatient and decided to go to the restaurant...

At the the first restaurant down the street they told me that I'll need to wait a while to be served so I turned around and left to find a better luck some place else. And about 5 houses up the street in the old town I came into the restaurant "Dvaras" (Manor) which specializes in authentic Lithuanian cuisine.

The welcomed me into a cellar which even didn't have internet connection. I ordered potato pancakes with curd, put my ear piece and turned on Stephen King's narrated version of "On Writing" from Audible. Mr King told me a story in my ear about how he created Carrie, his first breakthrough horror novel. I then decided that while I wait I better start drawing.

The theme for Artstorm contest yesterday was Polar Bears. So I drew a frame in my pocket notebook, put a name and a date and started drawing a small polar bear in the middle. At first his face looked to me similar to Dietrich's but later it turned out better than I expected...

On the left side of the bear I drew Spiky and on the right - Pinky. She had her hands extended and had a tray with some food on it. Cornelius and Dietrich were fighting with each other and Betsy and Victor were biting the bear's legs. Now came the time when the characters started talking.

Since I was listening to how Stephen King wrote a horror novel, Spiky asked the bear, "Do you know how to write a horror story?" The bear answered in a way that you too would answer if somebody would ask you this out of the blue, "WTF?". But of course, Pinky wanted Spiky to be polite and offered the bear the best thing she could share - potato peals.

I hope this silliness will put a smile on your face...

Most Lithuanians traditionally love potato dishes so yes, potato pancakes were really good.

I love Iowa... One time Ausra and I got stuck in Iowa city in a blizzard.

My daughter lived only a few miles away from Iowa City at one time, Iowa city is a cool college town, lots of fun things to do there in the summertime it’s beautiful, I really like the old downtime area, lots of artists live there. Every year there’s a few blizzard that will happen, airports shut down❣️

Good old Midwest... Home to some of the nicest people I know...

@organduo, Here i want to say that, sometimes we face some situations where we become impatient and specially when it comes to food. But great to know that as you were waiting for your food you've ran your imagination and created this art piece for the contest. In my opinion this art piece came up beautifully and for sure you have the Artistic Imagination. And keep up and keep exploring your art.

Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

Thanks for your kindness!
