Cookies

A lot of my posts have been about food. Not only do I love food, but I like photographing food...maybe a crazy future career? I don't know. But food is an interesting subject to photograph because of the various colors, textures, shapes, forms, and lines. Today I made cookies, out of the Pillsbury cookie dough bucket.

Bookworm

Okay, so maybe not quite a bookworm yet...but I just read a book in 3 days. At work there is not much else to do, so I finished off "The Soloist" by Steve Lopez. I got a lot of book suggestions on my Facebook, and I am still looking into those, but B. Dalton bookstores was closing and everything was marked 50% off and it was about the only thing decent left in the store.

Cereal

I love my cereal. Any time of the day. Any kind. But I especially love these frosted mini-wheats. Malt-O-Meal brand of course. So technically, they are "Frosted Mini Spooners."

Daylight?

So I worked another 10 hours today. I am grateful for the hours, but so much for "easing" back into work. So since I arrived before the sun rose and left JUST as the sun was past the horizon, I didn't see any daylight. BUT this is what I saw! It was much more beautiful in person and it got quite a bit darker by the time I could even take the picture. But there ya go!

10 hours

Today was my first day back to work at the Rec Center. Ugh. Long day. 10 hours...I'm not used to that kinda thing anymore. So I'm cheating today because I forgot to take my camera with me...but I was happy to have been wearing my trusty flip flops all day. I haven't been able to wear sandals in what seems like forever, since ya know, it's cold outside! But here is a fun photo I took for my Photography class last fall, staged at Monkey Rock in Rexburg. Reminds me of summer. :)

Hmmm...

Today I tackled my bedroom. After unpacking and doing all the laundry, I never got my clothes put away. So for the last couple weeks I have been digging through piles on my floor to find the necessary clothing items I need at the time. I never really realized how many jackets/sweatshirts/hoodies I really owned. I love them. And will I quit buying them? Doubtful.

Zebra

Two photos today. Not because they are so spectacular that I have to post them, but because I don't even feel like the both of them put together is good enough to amount to one decent photo. But I didn't have any good light and really I just wanted to show off my latest of projects.

This photo/memo board used to be covered in fabric that was blue with white stars and moons all over it. Now, it has zebra print fabric! Lately I have really been into anything zebra print, I know it is kind of a trend right now too, but I have always LOVED black and white. Anyway, here it is, maybe someday I will make one of these from scratch.

Fishy

This is our purple/blue Beta fish. He has been living for over a year now! He's a trooper! And yes, I know that it is a boy because female Beta fish don't have long fins. Even though we have had him for over a year, we still haven't named him. Any ideas?

Oh and P.S.: It is extremely difficult to get a decent looking photo of a fish in a fish bowl.

Dinner

Chicken, rice, and veggies...slaved over the hot stove all day. Okay, maybe the microwave for like 5 minutes. Not bad.

Oops!

So I took yesterday's photo but then I forgot to post it! Oops! Well here it is. Yesterday I attempted going to the gym. I walked a half a mile and ran a half a mile and thought I was going to die...and then couldn't stop coughing afterward...guess I'm not quite over the illness. But I was sure grateful for my Camelbak water bottle. Hence the inspiration for the photo.
