I got some new toys for my camera. Unable to afford the crazy expense for a real macro lens, I bought magnifying lenses (1+, 2+, 4+, & 10X). They aren’t infallible, but they make me happy.

The Choice
*My Family has a tradition. On the first birthday, three items are set in front of the child. Whatever they chose determines the future. Book. Coin. Shot Glass.=Smart. Rich. Drunk.

Reaching – I was reaching for my camera more. Reaching for the exit to my funk. In the process, I reached out and captured some beauty in the every day.

Unfortunately I totally spaced out and didn’t get pictures of us ACTUALLY playing (on family game night…either of them) – but this is me just goofing around to get some pics. Once in the beautiful snowfall and once w/ food as I was prepping lunch for the hubs.

All of my absolute favorite pictures from 2010. Luckily I only got really photo crazy in the past couple of months or this would be far more insanely long than it already is.

This weekend started the Christmas Crazy Cookie days. With the exception of the first pic, these were all taken on Saturday (more cookie pics next week where you can see the many many I made)
Taste of Home
Unless you’re down with the B’lo you don’t know the beauty and deliciousness of a “Beef on Weck”. I was feeling homesick so I attempted to make this Buffalo staple for the first time. It wasn’t perfect, but it was damn good…and I will be forced (the horrors!) to try again and again until I get it right…
