if: Stir

When this weeks Illustration Friday topic 'Stir' popped into my inbox, I imagined a pleasant afternoon printing my way through the growing spoon collection in my studio. Then I remembered Nigella's cookery series, the most useful tip I picked up from five episodes was "Never stir rice with a spoon, always use a fork." I now use a fork to stir all sorts of rice and pasta pots. I have bought some lovely old dictionaries from the charity shop to use for collage, adding my fork which stirs.
