Wheedle Noodle

A close-up profile of a stylized woman with pale skin, rouged cheeks, closed eyes, and a blue kerchief tied in two peaked points atop her head, set against a mottled teal-and-white textured background under a band of pink at the top edge. She holds wooden chopsticks lifting noodles from a "CUP NOODLES"-labeled cup while a yellow kettle pours a stream of water down into it from the upper right, her tongue extended to catch a dangling noodle; she wears a rust-red patterned garment with a pale yellow-green collar.
