Illustration Friday - Burning

Ginger knew she had to change jobs,
she couldn't keep burning Santa's favorite cookies, anymore...

  8. Cute illustration. Gingerbread seems to be a common thread lately.
    Been really busy and trying to catch up. We had snow last night. Afraid Winter is here.

    You are such a cutie Ginger that I'm sure Santa won't mind a bit of charcoal!
