april fools! – more snow on the way!!! big fat sigh.
it feels like groundhog day all over again… 😉
{by the way – i took this foto last week and the next day, it was literally a blanket of white…}
even though we have a ways to go yet before it’s in season…
i’m totally craving asparagus lately…
and sometimes i just take pictures of produce… in case you haven’t noticed 🙂
watching me at the grocery store in the produce section is pretty hilarious, no doubt. i take a long time to pick out my vegetables, mostly knowing that i’ll eventually have them in front of a camera… so i like them to be pretty 😉
happy wednesday!
i had never seen anything like this and i was so happy to get immersed right in the middle of it!
remember last friday i wrote about the coolest cattle?! well, as i was fotographing them that day, i inadvertently got stuck behind the twice-a-year cattle round-up that takes place here in town. i was pretty much cracking-up the entire time and also felt so privileged to have witnessed this event, camera-in-hand.
it was the day of the eclipse, too… and the sunset was unbelievable!
i know they’re “just cows”, but i love them. and what i want to know is…
how the heck did they round up all these cows without me noticing? one can’t get off this road, so-to-speak, and i had just turned around to head back down the hill when i saw this… Continue reading

i’m visiting NYC in three days… and i actually kind of got a little nervous. for real legitimately nervous… what?! i lived in manhattan for 3 glorious years, and i ran the LES. why am i nervous?! it’s like i’m going to rekindle a former relationship or something. haha
i’m definitely bringing my camera with me, and although i won’t get up to bear mountain park {where these images were taken}, i do hope to catch a glimse of a few of these colours throughout central park or the like.
for now, i’ll share these with you… oh how i love the autumn!
i am fully aware that “buttercorn” is not a word… remember how i like to make up names for my dishes?! well, this was no exception.
and i’m so fully in autumn mode it’s not even right. and it’s not just because we got hit with some snow this week. i’ve been ready now for weeks. i thrive in the fall, i love this time of year!! and yes, part of it is because i have a birthday approaching! 🙂 but i just love the food autumn brings. i’m finally ready to put away the salad fork and bust out the soup spoon more often… i’m ready for root vegetables, squashes, potatoes, yams, and soups!!!!
squash was on sale a couple weeks ago – 10 pounds for 10 dollars. so i snagged up 3 different kinds – spaghetti, acorn, and butternut. i always use my spaghetti squash as pasta, so i knew what to do with that… and i was going to try to make the butternut squash as soup anyway – then i thought, well why can’t i just use BOTH kinds of squash in the soup?!
and so i did. Continue reading
i have seriously been sitting at my computer all morning – i started 3 different blogs, got distracted, ate breakfast, cried a little {good cry}, and then started all over. i blame nicki minaj. i have been listening to the song “fly” on repeat since i woke up. it’s my new theme song. my favourite lyrics :
“Everybody wanna try to box me in
Suffocating every time it locks me in
Paint their own pictures then they crop me in
But I will remain where the top begins
Cause I am not a word, I am not a line
I am not a girl that can ever be defined
