Perhaps mother knows best in the Tangled version of Rapunzel, but the version of Rapunzel would disagree. When in doubt, go with your gut, right? 😉
Kind of excited to have already made five pieces in Hungrily Ever After, a hand lettering and illustration series that puts a foodie twist on popular fairy tales. 🍽
Side projects are great, but also notoriously hard to keep going when the only accountability is yourself, wouldn’t you agree? Thanks for all of you who are following along and rooting me on. It means a lot. 🥰

This is dedicated to all the foodies who don’t like to cook. 😇 Poor Sleeping Beauty must have been SO hungry when she woke up, and probably a little hangry that the food took so long, in this version of the story. 🤤😆

I know some of you enjoyed my lettering series last year, so you can probably relate.
Who would also rather be napping instead of cooking? 🙋🏻♀️

What would Cinderella eat at a royal ball? Would she be crashing at the epic dessert bar or prefer something more savory? Either way, all the treats would probably exist as recipes in this conceptual book. 😋🥧🧁🍓
