FFO And Smiles

 
 
I was thinking, hmmm... what face have I not sketched yet? 
All frogs, done, the pigs... didn´t feel like it... you get the picture.
 
Picture... The Little Giant Girl? That would be fun.
So, browsed my folder Perth 2015 and found this first.
Do these two count as faces?
 
I hope so and join Nicole´s FFO.
 
Australian Geographic has moved. We love that store and I look forward to hopefully find it in Joondalup again come February! Luckily our friend Grace took a pic from their entrance in time so Ingo could get their Platypus as tattoo.
 
Makes me still smile. With which I join Annie´s Smiles, too.
Also: After a really cold week (needed my microwave Tiger!) it´s finally warming up again! 
 
More to Smile:
 

 


 
 And finally, even if you had a rather non-smiling week:


Henry 🦁

 
To a hopefully good weekend...

I love the pure bread dog and sent the pic right away to family. I was sometimes Big Bird at work too with all around me being grumpy.

Iris Flavia said...

Spread the word, ummm dog 😀🐶
And to Big Bird(s)!

...Iris, I hope that you are always optimistic. It's the only way to fly!

The drawing of Ingo at Australian Geographic is great. It does look like it was fun.

Definitely 2 faces! Thanks for the laughs!

Debra She Who Seeks said...

Hahahahahaha, love the dino and his snack!

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

You and I are on the same wavelength with the pure bread dog. That was funny. I loved seeing Ingo at the Australian Geographic Museum. Lovely face and great smiles, dear.

Lisca said...

What a fun post! Yay! I smiled at the funnies and also at Ingo (don't tell him).
I had heard of the Australian Geographic as a magazine, but didn't know they had a museum. Sounds like fun.
Have a great weekend,
hugs,
Lisca

CJ Kennedy said...

Iris Flavia said...

Christine, thank you and you´re welcome!

Debra, LOL!

Elizabeth, that dog... ;-)
Oh, that is a store where you can buy science stuff for all ages!

____

Lisca, LOL, I won´t ;-)
No the Australian Geographic is a store! Not a museum.
To a great weekend, hugs

My name is Erika. said...

Now this is my kind of drawing Iris. I love it! Sorry I'm behind but I'm down with a head cold and dragging today. But I wanted to finish Nicole's Face Off posts before it was suddenly Monday. Have a super weekend. hugs-Erika

Iris Flavia said...

Thank you! :-) It was fun to be back on memory lane.
Sorry about your head-cold - hope it´s over by now!!
So far: Great weekend - hope you have one, too!

I am retired so I have no Work jokes to share, but I like Big Bird's Attitude:) Black and Decker should use your Black and Pecker picture in their advertising ... I am sure they would sell a lot. Your Pure Bread Dog is a classic and no, I don't have one around anymore, sadly, but love the cleverness of the piece. And I believe in Optimism, but one has to be realistic at the same time ... not as much fun :( And love Henry ... he is the cutest (in pictures anyway ... not sure I would want to meet him face to face:0 Fun post, Iris, as always ...

Iris Flavia said...

Andrea, I do believe we work our whole life, no?
If it´s the darn cleaning job ;-) With which I have a hard time to be Big Bird...
Maybe we should address Black and Decker and get rich?
That dog, LOL.
My Mom said I´m a pessimist, I always considered myself a realist - we should just let the turtle come through from time to time (and more often).
A real Lion. Um. No, better not. Though I saw so many clips on FB - they are great Dads...
