Pears	13 May 2024, 0:22	I started this at least three times before I finished it. Quite challenging even with xs. I'm glad it's not cherries.
Girl and saxophone	11 May 2024, 14:51	You gotta put down the ducky ...
Bison	11 May 2024, 14:00	Remarkably easy to do without xs and good picture. Must be a Eurasian bison - doesn't look quite like American species - which makes sense given artist's nationality.
Amphora	10 May 2024, 15:22	Thanks, seans
Sunrise in the mountains	10 May 2024, 4:42	I love this one!
Still life	9 May 2024, 16:43	The ironic thing is that in French one of these kind of pictures is called "nature morte", literally "dead nature". They do sometimes have dead ducks or other game animals in them.
Fawn	8 May 2024, 23:46	i love that poem, too
Little ghost	8 May 2024, 23:31	yes

Tsunami	4 May 2024, 17:16	Like in Minecraft
Sushi	4 May 2024, 16:58	You might like Dave Brubeck. I'm not a big sushi fan myself, though I like kimbap.
Bird	4 May 2024, 6:07	Charming!
Calculator	4 May 2024, 4:04	thank you!

Farmer	2 May 2024, 17:30	Thanks!
Water skiing	2 May 2024, 16:10	Ha ha!
Inkwell and pen	2 May 2024, 15:42	This reminds me of how people used to communicate by writing letters all the time. I wrote hundreds of letters myself. Now I have a very hard time making myself write even a short note rather than send an email or other electronic communication. It does tend to hurt my hand (and did even in my young adulthood) and tends to be illegible, but I think I'm bothered more by not being able to easily edit it. Of course, one can write a second draft. When I do send a handwritten note, I often draft it first in a word-processing program.
Pacifier	30 April 2024, 4:52	This invaluable object took me a long time to solve
Factory	29 April 2024, 16:12	Very fun, thank you

Man Holding Boxes	27 April 2024, 15:14	Fun!
Mouse	27 April 2024, 3:30	I accidentally had the titles turned on and saw the title of this one and was disappointed that I had spoiled the surprise. But while solving, I forgot about it and then discovered I had pictured a different sense of the word.
Ordinary witch	27 April 2024, 3:13	I believe those lines are the outlines of two boots
Sneaker	26 April 2024, 15:23	This is not allowed to be a sneaker. It is clearly a cheerful, round-bellied creature wearing a sort of ancient Chinese hat or crown, like the emperor in a kids' book I have.
Girl with an umbrella	26 April 2024, 15:01	Fun to solve
Masked	26 April 2024, 14:44	My family and I have been wearing masks in public indoor spaces off and on since 2020. We watch the COVID hospitalization rate for our state and act accordingly. We've felt free to forgo them for the last month, but this could change. I got COVID once and was miserable for weeks, though not seriously ill. My husband hasn't caught it, which is good since he's at higher risk.

Koala	19 April 2024, 21:26	My mother used to call them cola bears. This was before we got a TV and watched nature shows, so she'd only seen it in print.
Koala	19 April 2024, 21:25	fast and fun, also charming
Dinosaur	19 April 2024, 16:27	Not your best picture, but a fun challenge to solve
Daisy Bumstead	19 April 2024, 3:56	I recognized her before I was finished, because of the previous puzzle. Good girl!
Dagwood Bumstead	18 April 2024, 21:16	I've loved this character since I was a little child, and that's about 60 years. Thank you, mindscrub!
Spinning in dance	18 April 2024, 4:51	Thank you!
