FRIDAY QUESTION (and InkTober)

This year I'm doing InkTober and for 31 days I'll draw a new cartoon. At some point I'd like to have my art on little notebooks and mugs.

So fun! 

In other news, way back when the land was flat we used to do Friday Question here on the blog. I'm bringing it back in October. 

Friday Question: On the breakfast table are banana nut muffins and chocolate chip cookies. Both fresh from the oven.

Which do you go for? Muffins or cookies/biscuits?

And that my Boogerbutts is all that's fit to print. Here are two of my InkTobers. More to come. 

Until next post ....

  1. Cute!
    Love the question idea. Now, usually for breakfast, I would eat a muffin. However, your muffins have nuts in them and I really don't like nuts. I guess that gives me an excuse to eat a cookie for breakfast!

    1. lol. I should have left out the nuts. I forget not everyone likes them. That's my bad. Love the jump to the cookie though. Wishing you a fun weekend, Mari!

  3. So awesome that you're doing Inktober! I've never had the nerve to try it -- such a big commitment to do the art prompts every day for 31 days! I'll have a banana nut muffin please!

    1. Hey Debra. Cannot recommend doing this enough. It's so fun. Though I'm doing the prompt-free way. I actually didn't know about the prompts until later and really, I just wanna do my own thing. Hey, it's not too late. I promise it's fun!

    1. Cookies by default then. Or we can remove the nanners and make a muffin of your picking.

  8. For breakfast, the muffins first, cookies second, but since they have nuts in them I might pass...

  9. cute cartoons. Since it's breakfast I'm probably going to grab the muffin first. Chances are after I finish it I'm gonna go back and get a cookie though.

    1. Much thanks, Sandra It's really nice to be posting again and more often. I forget when I'm away sometimes how much I miss it. And how much I enjoy when I'm here. If that makes sense.

  17. If I couldn't have both, I would have to take the chocolate chip cookie. They are SO good when still warm from the oven.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hmmm, hard choice but I think if the muffin is nice and warm from the oven I would slather some butter on it and chow down. Maybe I would have the cookie for a "snack".
    Love your cartoons for Inktober ... love that name.

  19. I would do both... with a cup of coffee please.
    Okay, I know I can only choose one.
    It will be the muffin, with butter and a cup of coffee please.

  20. Dear Ivy, I absolutely love your sketches, dear friend! Hmmm....I am not a big fan of either cookies or muffins. Not at all sure! Let's choose oatmeal cookies! Those I really like. Chocolate chip, too. :)

  22. I love your cute figures, they always make me smile, so enjoyable! I fixed a beef stew and had a savory biscuit with it. Hanging head in shame, I cheated as though the stew was homemade, the biscuits came out of a can :0

    1. Hey, that's good too. No shame in that game. Not all all. In fact, I've been playing with Dolly Parton cookies because it was recently Dolly Parton Day AND these were on sale.

  26. Muffins for me as well, Ivy, even with the nuts included. My favorite muffins are pumpkin or blueberry should you be in another muffin baking mode. The cartoons are spot on for October and very cute too.

  27. I always enjoy an egg of some sort for breakfast but out of the two choices you give I would go for Muffins!

    I like your cartoons.

    Have a great weekend.

    All the best Jan

  29. I am late to this party...but I will take a muffin, please. Butter on the side. Maybe a cup of coffee with some creamer. If I'm being honest, I'll prob snag a cookie, too. They used to make an amazing Butter Rum muffin at HEB long ago. So good!

    1. Hey Gina! You got it. Boy, I wish we had a HEB. I had their salsa once and I think a girl brought it to work years ago. Not sure where she got it. Was soooo gooooood.

  32. Hi! Oh, this is a tough question, as I love both! I'd probably say a muffin, though, slathered with salty butter. YUM!! Have a great week ahead, Ivy!
