I have for you a tale of woe. And a spoiler if your name is my mom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upon a time not so long ago, my parents moved. And in that move, a box went missing. And in that box was a Candyland game my mom had played for many years. In my research, it was the 1962 edition, for reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were able to find a new board for it though! Huzzah! And my mom was pretty sure she still had the cards and pieces! So all was well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Except a twist to our tale- the cards and pieces, thought to be in one of the boxes that arrived, turned out to also be lost! Alas! But then I thought, hey, Candyland pictures aren’t all that complicated, right? I bet I could draw some of those…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"The<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So I did some research, got some reference photos, and went to town. The squares were easy and the other cards were just fun. I’m pretty pleased with how they’re coming along. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

So hello Mom, get ready for a new pack of cards coming your way. I suppose I could<\/em> make copies of the originals since, well, I found them online and that might actually be simpler… but I’m having fun with this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, I’m discovering new limits to my WordPress knowledge that should probably be remedied as and when this site goes on to be more than just a blog and actually a landing page for my writing endeavors. I’ll get to it soon (add it to the backlog!) but for now, I’ll bring new writing prompt meanderings at you again next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’d offer to share more of the files but I’m honestly unsure of the legality thereof; lemme check with a lawyer and I’ll get back to you on that. (Add that<\/em> to the back of the backlog \ud83d\ude09 ) (Or message me and we’ll see what can be done.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
