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 […]
Macro Food…it’s beautiful
Hello all, just a quicky post as I still have mucho homework and a 6 day school week looming over my head…sigh. I can’t wait till I have more time to share with you what I’ve learned and what I’ve been cooking up. I presented my final last week to my instructor and the response […]
Freeze Frame
Just a quickie post to update anyone who might be interested on my school shenanigans… I can’t believe how much I’ve learned in such a short time…almost 4 weeks to be exact! I also keep learning how much I don’t know! Some of you heard me whine mention the rigorous school schedule I have. One […]

I heart Strawberries
It’s been an unusually warm past few days, it felt more like the dog days of summer than the usual dreary spring so oft experienced here. Something about the warmth, the thought of picking a fresh strawberry and eating it immediately, unwashed, made me feel nostalgic.
Lavender Love
It is not regal or royal, like it’s sister purple It is not deep and moody, like it’s brother blue It is soft and delicate, it is romance Lavender Love
Maple Rum Pecan Cupcakes with Candied Bacon
No, you’re eyes aren’t deceiving you. It’s a cupcake. See I told you, just because I’m on Weight Watchers doesn’t mean I’m going to turn into a tofu eating, kale munching health freak. Actually the whole cupcake thing was NOT planned. I realized on Saturday that I had to make a dessert for the Golden […]
Maple Wheat Bread and Black and White Wednesday
Baking is not my thing, baking with yeast is even less than my thing. But sometimes I get the yearning to bake fresh bread, usually in the form of my bread maker. Then I saw Amy’s recipe for her weekly bread and I got a hankering for skipping the bread machine. Amy is a local, […]
