1st Day of Christmas

Two years ago, I did an entire year of taking a picture every single day (what is often referred to as a Photo 365 project). It's  incredibly difficult to find a photo subject every day when real life has so many distractions, but I succeeded. This past summer I attempted a shorter version, 99 Days of Summer. I missed one or two days on that one. Not on purpose, just because I forgot to take a picture. I didn't have a good support system to remind me and I was traveling a lot for work. The support system, I've discovered, is crucial for this type of project.

Well, the boy has promised to help remind me to take my picture of the day for my new project: 25 Days of Christmas. We'll see how well he remembers. I can say, though, that the more comments and encouragement I get on my pictures, the more likely I am to remember to keep taking and posting new ones. So if you want to see more pictures, let me know what you think of this one.

I just got back from a business trip yesterday and the boy bought me an ornament while I was gone. What should I name him?

Black Cherry Delight Popcorn

One of many awesome wedding gifts we received was a cookbook titled 101 Things to do with Popcorn. There are some interesting recipes inside and some really fun ones. I've made a couple and decided to try something new tonight. I didn't have the right ingredients for anything specific from the book, so I mixed and matched and came up with my own concoction.  To start, you need some popped popcorn. We don't want the special butter or movie popcorn you can buy in the store because we're putting our own topping on it. So we want to start with about 1/3 cup of unpopped kernels and we're going to dump them in a regular old brown paper lunch bag.  Fold up the top of the bag so the kernels don't come out as they pop.  My microwave has a popcorn setting. If yours doesn't, just put it in for about 3 - 4 minutes and listen for the popping to slow.  After the popcorn is popped comes my least favorite step. It's a little awkward, but necessary if...

So far so good, but it hasn't even been 12 hours yet, so we'll see how it goes. Man, am I glad I hold on to these things! If you like my photography (and many of you tell me you do), PLEASE leave comments on my pictures throughout this year. I don't know if I'll be able to continue without that encouragement. Also needed will be suggestions for photography subjects or locations. I'm always looking for ideas!

Fair after Dark

We stayed late at the fair last night so I could get a couple pictures of the rides after dark. I love the lights!
