Day 27/365: The Food Blogger in Action

Had a tasty lunch at Fuel with Lesley. There was vegetarian meatloaf, applewood bacon, hot tea and baked brie. Ahhhhh, the luxury of getting out of the house. [Project 365]

Day 16/365: Chocolaaaaate

Why yes, this blog is now officially a food-photography blog, why do you ask? Just kidding! Although being a food photographer is on my short list of dream jobs. My friend Ashley gave me this bar of Olive & Sinclair salt and pepper chocolate as part of my Christmas gift, and I think it’s so cool that it’s made by a Nashville company. Not to mention their snazzy package design. The chocolate itself? Well, it’s…

CUTENESS ATTACK … AGAIN!

Krissi and Jeremy and Piper let me tag along with them to the Botanic Gardens again this year for a family photoshoot. We went in mid-October, which turned out to be perfect both weather-wise and scenery-wise. I don’t know how the Botanic Gardens managed not to completely burn up this summer like everyone else’s gardens, but I suspect a whole lot of chicken blood and brick dust might be involved. I’M SAYING THEY USED VOODOO…

Sports and leisure and science and nature

When Kristin came to visit last week and we needed a way to kill a Wednesday afternoon, we ended up at Lichterman Nature Center, where I’m fairly sure I went as a kid on a field trip once. Faaaairly sure. Anyway, being there as an adult is weird. Supposedly it’s how this area of the country would look if not for urban development. I think about those giant lily pad things being everywhere and it…

Aunt B’s book

Y’all. I read Aunt B‘s book. I loved it. Like, really, really loved it. I couldn’t read it in one sitting, however. Because it kept creeping me the fuck out. I figure that is the hallmark of a successful book of ghost stories. I can’t remember the last time I read something that was both very beautifully (and funnily, at times) written that was also quite unsettling and made me see things in shadows and…
