Okay, so I gotta give some major props to all you food photographers.
I’ve noticed that every time I attempt to take a photo of something really tasty, it comes across as super nasty.
Case in point: this photo.
Yet, I see pics all over the web of cooked food, raw food, half-cooked food and it all looks fantastic.
Not so much with my food choices….did you see my Superfood post? Yummy in my tummy, gross in the post!
This is straight up turkey breast goodness and it looks pretty much like I am grilling up some grubs.
But trust me, mix this lean ground turkey with some black beans, squeeze of lime, some sliced avocado and an all natural corn tortilla and you, ma’am, have a mighty fine lunch! Can’t wait for noon tomorrow!

I decided I’ve had enough of my hair feeling and looking like straight up straw.
So I headed my frizzy-funky head over to Ulta in search of a hair mask.
I came home with several Ojon products: the once a week treatment, the daily pre-treatment, hydrating shampoo, 2 minute conditioner, and the leave in treatment. They have a few other products (the daily hydrating conditioner , the detox shampoo and conditioner, and the leave-in styling cream that I want to try, but they were out of them when I visited Ulta).
I am crazy excited to wash my hair in the morning – I am wearing a shower cap with my hair coated right this very minute!
After I’ve used it for about a month, I’ll give you another update.
Have you tried anything that makes your hair feel scrumptious? What’s your favorite product?

Spent about nine hours in the checkout line at WalMart. I always forget why I avoid going to their stores until I am in one.
Well, while there I whipped out my trusty camera and got a pic of water jugs all lined up in a pretty row.

Been really busy lately, so I’ve had little time for blogging. I’ve been dying to tell y’all that I’m auditing Karen Russell’s famous Snapshots of a Good Life photography class. I started this blog with the intent to improve my photography and part of that includes taking photos each day, but also actually enrolling in classes and studying with both books and dvds. We’re only a couple of weeks into the Snapshots class, but I can already tell that I’ll gain a tremendous amount from this class. Not even over, but I highly recommend for any of you newbie photogs out there. Also you get this really cool pen!

I stopped by Thrive on Wilmington Island tonight to pick up dinner. Man, I wish they had a place like this in Pooler!
Here’s a photo of their Superfood Salad – yum, yum, yum!

Typical Saturday – - – ran around town.
Went to the grocery store.
Stopped by salon and got some shampoo.
Swung by mall to pick up some my multi-vitamin capsules.
Went to pet store to get dog & cat food.
Oh, and did I mention I ran in a 5K this morning around Forsyth?
Nearly slipped my mind that I beat my previous time by nearly 6 minutes to come in at 38 minutes…and some odd seconds (but who’s counting?)!
Hehehe!
But I was the next to last person to finish. Police motorcycles and cars blocked traffic on Whitaker & Drayton so that I would not be hit by traffic.
Really very nice of them.
Just a tad bit embarrassing.

Hitting the bed early tonight after a long and tiring week, but wanted to share a quick pic of one of my most favoritest-bestest things I own: My mass-produced, non-one-of-a-kind, Denyse Schmidt quilt. I love it nonetheless and one day hope to buy one of her originals. (I wasn’t brave enough to post a pic of my entire bed as it is totally a jumbled mess. I mean, seriously, who makes their bed unless company is coming over?! I know I am not alone in this….c’mon, don’t leave me hanging…admit it…..crickets….chirrp….sad, lonely chirrp.)

Night, night…

Have I told y’all how much I love sweet potatoes?

I eat blueberries every morning.
I know, I know, I should only eat fruit that is in season and local to my area, but I love me some blueberries. Love ‘em, I tell ya! What’s a girl to do?!?
Several months back, I picked up this berry colander at Krogers, and since, my life has been forever changed.
It collapses, it’s small, and it’s purple!

Okay, I’ve got 5K madness.
I randomly heard about the Critz Tybee Run and I signed up.
The 5K is tomorrow. Yeah. Tomorrow morning. I heard about the 5K at 4:30PM, left work at 5, signed up at 6:50PM, and will run/walk at 8AM.

Really sleepy tonight, so definitely none of that.

Finally got around to watching my latest Photovision DVD in between rounds of laundry.

Don’t ever know exactly what to do with my lens cap. Thinking of buying one of these boogers…Hufa
What do you do with your lens caps?

Pic of my earrings on my bathroom vanity. Short & sweet tonight people….going to be early….zzzzzzz…..

I’m trying to start being more consistent with my knitting. You know, not going 6 months between knitting projects, that sort of thing. So I’ve started the ever-popular Gap-tastic Cowl found on Ravelry. This yarn has a weird sheen to it making the photos look a tiny bit odd.

Had plans to ride my bike as soon as I got home….but…..it’s a bit cold and damp out tonight. Bummer.

Today’s been absolutely beautiful with the temps warming up quite a bit from yesterday. I took advantage of the good weather and put my feet to my bike pedals.

Jason and I were out and about most of the day, so we had to eat both breakfast and dinner out. We naughtily skipped lunch which is a major no-no considering I am trying to lose some pounds. We did eat dinner at our favorite place in Savannah, The Noodle Bowl.
Jason had Pho while I tried the Singapore Laksa which was to die for, really, I mean this Noodle Bowl place rocks. If ever in Savannah, you gotta go.
Oh, and I included a used up tea bag from this morning’s breakfast….just because….

Building on one of my previous post featuring the light of my mirror, I went in close on a light bulb filament.

I’m coming out.
Out of the pantry.
I hate cooking.
Absolutely hate it.
Luckily Jason seems to like it well enough to keep us both fed.
Here’s a peek into my pantry. We’ve recently made the switch from canned tomatoes to these.

My daily fish oil pills

Picked up my new specs today….I was really hoping for x-ray vision, but I guess I’ll settle for 20/20.

Got a flash of inspiration while plucking my eyebrows…

Snapped a quick pic while at the knitting shop, The Guild in Pooler, GA

Sunday = Laundry
