steve wallet architect 2014 hanukkah latke recipe cartoonThis year I combined a recipe with cartoons. As you read the steps of my father’s recipe for latkes, the traditional fried potato pancakes eaten at Hanukkah, the cartoons tell a story. Like all holidays, this story involves food and family.steve wallet architect 2014 hanukkah wallpaper

And my string of wallpaper designs continues with a Hanukkah pattern. It is made from the pieces that make up Hanukkah – food, games and love.

“Ah lichtige Hanukkah”, a bright and wonderful Hanukkah to all!

Try your hand at some latkes if you’ve never had them, they’re great!

Time Change ‘Toons

time change cartoon steve wallet architect 11-2014Just for fun, and to prove to myself that I can make a cartoon about ANYTHING, I made these cartoons about us changing our clocks yesterday. This is something we do twice a year, ahead an hour in spring when we go on Daylight Savings Time, and back an hour in the fall when we go back to regular time. No one seems to know why we do this.
