For The Blog

26 Aug

I’m willing to do a a lot of things for RER. For example, I’m willing to set a timer on top of my car and take a picture with a watermelon in the Costco parking lot. Hey -It takes effort to hold a 56 pound melon while ignoring the whispers, “What is that girl doing?!proud mama

I’m willing to take pictures of the green plums I found at the Farmer’s Market today. IMG_8109 (800x600)They’re ripe and sweet too!IMG_8114 (800x600)Even though the lady next to me said, “You’re taking pictures of it?! Why?”

Me: “Because I have a food blog.”

Lady: “On the internet?”

Me: “Mostly…”IMG_8110 (800x600)

IMG_8112 (800x600) IMG_8113 (800x600)

IMG_8118 (800x600)

I’m willing to restrain myself from eating all 6 plums I bought at the FM in one go so I could change up my fruit consumption. Yes, for RER my “all watermelon all the time” habits will have a plum thrown in for good measure.IMG_8120 (800x600)

I’m willing to take pictures of myself post-Zumba while driving so it feels like we saw each other today. Who needs “safety first”? I say – friends first!IMG_8125 (600x800)

But, apparently I’m not willing to reheat my leftovers on another plate. Nope. washing one more dish would kill me.IMG_8127 (800x600)

I’m also not willing to stop my myself in the middle of a bowl of PB Puffins to take a picture. And those were even in a clean bowl!

But I am willing to make myself late for my doctor’s appointment to post this though. Says something about my priorities I guess…

    I’ve had multiple people stop and ask me why I’m taking pictures of _____ or give me weird looks… Oh well, we can’t always make friends wherever we go 😛

    P.S. Have you tried a plumot- I had two today [first time trying them] and wish I bought a dozen!

    LOLOLOL! Now that I’m a blogger, I get the same stares when I’m taking pictures of random things, like my food. I also feel like people have the tendency of thinking I have a “big head” for the constant pictures of myself. But hey, that’s what being a blogger is all about. What fun would it be if you didn’t post goofy-faced pictures of yourself?! Entertainment, people! 😀 I love your blog dear, keep being amazing!

    Green plums are so good! I haven’t found any good ones. Trader Joe’s had awesome plums last week, and pluots are my new favorite thing at the moment.

    Also, I am trying to master the art of one dish cooking because I absolutely HATE cleaning extra dishes! Anything to cut back is a-okay by me!

    Random question, speaking of a doctor’s appointment (not asking if your pregnant, don’t worry)- what ever happened to thing stuck in your foot? I may have missed that post, but for some reason am oddly interested…

      That’s what I went for! They had to do another treatment, and I’ll probably have to go again.

    Lady: “On the internet?”
    Totally made me chuckle.

    No, lady… on the moon! It’s made of cheese. I blog about moon cheese. 😉

    I love the weird comments I get from people when I take photos of food. They think it’s so weird!

    I needs to go to Costco and get one of those watermelon! The ones I have are toooo small.

    Love the obvious question, ‘on the internet.’ Um, no, just in my head. I’m writing a comment about you right now. Duh.
