Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, what a story you tell. Tall and green, glowing glory, crowned atop with an angel. Decked with ornaments, current and past. Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, what a story you tell. One year I went out and bought giant department store style ornaments, ribbons and other trim […]

Food Photo Tips from a Buffalo Blue Elk Burger
Look at that, don’t you just want to take a bite out of that big juicy burger? Although I think that the burger looks appetizing I made some errors in photographing it. That’s what happens when you are a starvin marvin and want to snap the shot and get on with eating. It’s a fabulous […]
Cream of Mushroom and Turkey Soup
It’s one week after Thanksgiving, how are you doing on your leftovers? Have you gobbled them all up, did you stash some in the freezer for later? This year there was only three of us and the smallest organic fresh turkey I could buy was nearly 14 pounds. That’s a lot of turkey for 3 […]
Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup–Do Over
Ever wish you could get a do over? Where you could magically go back in time and right the wrong? Burnt biscuits…do over. Doing 80 mph in a 65 mph zone…sorry Mr. Policeman…do over. How about that conversation where you should have had a great comeback, but it only comes to you later. Wouldn’t it […]
Lucky enough
There are so many things in life that I wish were just a little better. Life is often not what we imagined it would be. By this time I was supposed to filthy stinkin’ rich and living the high life. On a more basal level I’d like to have less weight on this old body, […]

She’s teaching us about setting up blogs, websites, and the importance of networking. Then she gives us our homework: Need two headshots, one that can/is […]
Photography School and a Sandwich
I thought it was high time that I finally posted what I’ve been up too. My last two posts have been for Secret Recipe Club, just because I’m a commitment gal, and I love the club and sadly nothing else. Rocky Mountain School of Photography has been amazing! The more I learn the more I learn […]
Brigadeiros
I can’t even express how crazy my life is right now! I’m in the last couple of weeks of part one (Summer Intensive) of school and it seems like I have way more to do than I have time for. Even as I say this, I think, how many times have I said this to […]
