Week 119
L - Where Christmas Trees Go to Die - I kinda thought this was funny as our Christmas tree has been dumped at the bottom of the garden till we can get rid of it. I hate seeing my tree all dying and sad. Its so pretty when it's in its prime.
R - First Saturdays at the Brooklyn Museum - Not the best photo in the world because it's from my phone and it was dark, but this is the Brooklyn Museum and the first Saturday of every month they are sponsored by Target and have free entry in the evening, bands, talks with artists, movies and a dance party! Was fun!
Week 120
L - Sunflower Envy - I posted a sunflower photo a while back, in fact almost this time last year of some sunflowers that Shane gave me. You see I am a big fan of the sunny happy flowers and I have developed serious Sunflower envy. The house behind us has a wonderful crop of the beauties and I am always plotting ways to snaffle one. I know, i know I am not going to scale the fence to grab one in the dark of night. Or am I....???!!
R - So we've been doing a Slow Carb Diet as featured in the 4-Hour Body book! No sugar or fruit, no dairy and no carbs! it's tough, we've been eating eggs, meat, beans and veg all week. The exciting part is that you can eat whatever you want one day a week - Saturday = Dieters Gone Wild Day! So this is a photo collage of everything I ate on saturday, it's really gross after eating so well during the week. The best part.......6.5lbs lighter in just 5 days! can't believe it! we're going to try and do one month and then start to incorporate this diet back into our normal diet, not sure I can eat another egg white for breakfast!
Week 114
L - Tis the Season - I did take a shot last week similar to this but it was no good so I took another. The reindeer decoration from Ikea is my new favourite decoration, but the tartan bauble in the background is a close second. Yay....I love Christmas!!
R - Christmas Tree is up! thought I'd try a wee bit of lensbaby blurry action!
Week 115
L - Handprinted Wrapping Paper - I may be a little mad to even think about doing this BUT I did it anyway. I carved out a snowflake stamp and went to town with some white paint and a roll of brown kraft paper. I am pretty happy with the results.
R - Frosty Mornings - The colder mornings were drawing in and ice is beginning to form on the glass brrrrrrr
Week 116
L - Joyeux Noel - As part of my rustic and homemade theme I made these little tags for the wall. I also decided to go a little European with the lovely french version of Merry Christmas. Joyeux Noel everybody! Check out the full view at my Little Letters Blog
R - Hi London, it's been a while....I was in London to renew my visa and wish I had my real camera with me! I did however manage to get this photo of Tower Bridge in the afternoon sun and used a lomo effect to give it that old-timey look 'ello guvnor!
Week 117
L - If I look cute, I won't be in trouble - Little Missy 'found' a Christmas tree bauble and was enjoying some frantic fun with it I appeared in the living room to investigate what the noise was and she dropped and rolled into the "if I act cute, I won't get in trouble" pose! Too funny, although glass baubles do not mix with wooden floors and cat entertainment!
R - Back in Brooklyn - a wee bit of street art with a bow-tie to remind me I was home
Week 118
L - Sparkler fun - Happy New Year, we said goodbye to 2011 and hello to 2012 in the mountains which was fantastic. Despite having a very quiet night I still managed to get the sparklers out to accompany glass of fizz. Here's to an awesome 2012.
R - Mwah-ha-ha I got a TTL off camera flash cord for christmas and seeing as I was slow in taking a photo this week I tested it out on my trusty model Diego! His expression is HILARIOUS, love it!
