The coffee station/bakers rack in the kitchen was immediately available

    I did that when we got our new XSI, didn't put it down for a week. Every thing in the house was a subject.

    Great shots though...enjoy it!

    That's the same camera I've been looking at for a while now. I can't wait to hear (and see) more about it from you in the coming weeks.

    I hope it's all I've built it up in my mind to be.

    Hehehe, stickers on the dinosaur. :) I love seeing what others do with their baker's rack. Mine is my favorite thing in my home, I think. Love those cookbooks. Kitty, too.

    I love the dino photo. There are stickers all over my house. Sometimes I walk around with a sticker on my butt and I don't even know it.

    sigh.

    I want a nikon. I want to trade in in my canon. Or sell it. Or just throw it out.

    Why can't I just win the lottery already?

    What are you using for your post processing?

    (To off load, store, edit, and upload to the net?)

    I'm curious...and looking for something better myself

    (LOVE the photos! The stickers crack me up, I have a little one who would so totally have done that too!)

I thought I was too late to sign up for it because I was a couple days behind on reading Mel’s blog, but then she contacted me and asked if I could do a post about punctuation. Punctuation? Yes. Punctuation. or perhaps I mean: Yes…punctuation. The first response is clear cut. Yes. It is about punctuation. The second is slightly less certain.  Yeeessss. I suppose it is about punctuation, of all things. It’s kinda rambly & disjointed but still, you must admit punctuation is the focus. Punctuation is very important when communicating on line – we have no sarcasm font or snarky response font – so punctuation helps fill in the gap. At least for me. I use ellipses … all the time. Sometimes they mean “and yes, here is the punch line” or “here is the sarcastic bit”. Usually they just express a general dubiousness about the whole thing, such as in my example, which is in line with their accepted use to suggest faltering or fragmented speech accompanied by confusion, ...

This takes the cake. Or, actually, it eliminates the bread. We all know I am a lazy slacker when it come to cleaning out and/or rotating the food in my house Much to my mom’s intense embarrassment I have shared the results of this particular failing numerous times on this blog The freezer The fridge The pantry The surprise Milanos So no one will be  at all shocked to learn I have done it AGAIN! And I outdid myself rather spectacularly this time. You might recall the 3 year’s expired bag of tater tots in the freezer last year, or the 3 year’s expired bag of pasta from the pantry back in January. Pshaw! 3 years? A mere 3? Amateur effort. Ladies & Gentleman I present my greatest find to date 7 years expired yeast! Go me! I switched over to bulk bag yeast around the time this expired & I keep that in the fridge rather than the baking cupboard like the packaged stuff. This must have fallen behind the baking soda or the Karo syrup or something ...
