Project 365 2012 – Week 7 – A Photo a Day Journey

February 12th, 2012: 1am… this is when the good stuff happens. On our Blogger Ambassador trip to New Orleans with Zatarain’s, after a fun filled day of food and Mardi Gras parades, we sat around in the hotel lobby and chatted, talked shop, did what bloggers love to do when they get together – talk blogging life with people who get it. It is always when the real conversations happen and you truly get to know the people you’ve been spending time with!

February 14th, 2012: Jacob decided he wanted his Valentine’s box for school to be a Words With Friends theme (which makes sense since his friends and him are obsessed with that game now!) Copying off of many aspects of the game, this is what he came up with! Not as elaborate as some, but I thought it was a cool idea.

February 14th, 2012: Nick and I never go out on Valentine’s Day. Instead we make a really nice dinner for the kids and we serve them restaurant style, with candlelight, soft music and drinks in fancy glasses. They love it and so do we!

February 15th, 2012: Some of the prizes from KitchenAid and LeCreuset arrived for SoupaPalooza! Make sure to link up your soup recipes next week for a chance to win. Details on this post.

February 16, 2012: I adore my positive affirmation socks from Notes to Self! I had a really hard work out this day and kept having to remind myself that my socks told the truth… I Am Strong! Check out Notes to Self and their awesome socks here!

February 17th, 2012: I spent today at Applebee’s International learning about their delicious Under 550 Calorie meals. When I came home I met the sitter at the very busy park to discover Leah in the above outfit. Oh my… she is at a “always wants to wear PJ’s or leotards” stage. Luckily most people at the park totally got it as they’ve all had 2 year olds before!

February 18th, 2012: I had a busy day of recipe photo shoots for one of the magazines I work for.  My models (Thanks Bree & Stephanie for letting me borrow your kids) were messing around with the tomatoes. I just loved the look of the white and red contrast with their little hands playing around!

That’s it for this week! For outtakes and other pictures, make sure to follow me on Instagram and Flickr! Thanks!

    As always, I love every single picture. Leah looks like a little future gymnast in the leotard picture. Of course, the pajamas at the park picture is quite possibly my favorite. That photo is absolutely priceless.

Can’t believe we’re doing the college tour thing already with my second baby! 

So question for any of you who sent your kids to out of state schools or went to out of state schools...how did you do it? She wants to get the heck out of Kansas (I’d like to go with her!). We have money saved, she’ll most likely get a scholarship or two, she’s paying and has money saved as well...but even with that out of state tuition is a beast of an amount. So, did you just assume that student loans were going to be part of that life? And is that worth it to give your kids a shot at a new life outside of your home state? I wish I would have left Kansas for university, and have been here since I was born 😩. I want different for her if that’s what she wants but also just don’t have any experience with how people do out of state college! Any tips?

J is for...jam!
.
My friend @wakschmale makes the best strawberry jam...and I completely forgot about a jar she gave me last year until this morning. Which then inspired me to make my favorite buttermilk biscuits. So so good. Are you a jam, honey, just butter or plain biscuit fan? I love biscuits allll the ways, except with gravy. I have super bad memories of biscuits and gravy growing up. 🤢
.
I’m still slowly making my way through the alphabet for @kimklassen_innercircle a-z photo challenge. I’m bound and determined to finish. It may just take me a little longer than I originally anticipated 🤗.

It took me 2 months to get this Crispy Chickpea Pantry Pasta recipe up on the blog. 🤦‍♀️But it’s there now! You can find the link in my Instagram profile.
.
Also, just noticed Instagram took away the like count on posts. I kind of like that...what do you think?

I is for Inspiration!
.
The “long haul” effects of having Covid back in December are really presenting themselves lately. The continuous persistent headaches are taking a toll and the connection between the brain fog and word retrieval function of my brain has been extra challenging. I had no idea a couple months out, the cognitive effects would still be hanging around.
.
With that said, when I get a burst of inspiration I’m grabbing on for dear life. I made our favorite chocolate chip cookies recipe yesterday and felt the desire to update the blog post photos from 2007! We make these cookies all the time, so I’m not sure why it’s taken me so many years to give that poor post some new photos.
.
If you’re interested in the recipe you can find the link currently in my profile. Enjoy!!

H is for...high!
.
It was so strange being on a plane again. I’m so thankful I have the antibodies because the flights were full, which seemed wrong, but everyone around me did seem to keep their masks on, so that was good.
.
I can’t wait until travel becomes a regular part of life again. I’ve missed it so much!

G is for...oh so grateful!

I flew to South Texas yesterday to visit my parents whom I haven’t seen in 2 years. They live around 17 hours away from us. We typical get to see each other a few times a year but with the pandemic and other health issues it just wasn’t able to happen and I’ve missed them soooo much.

Grateful to have had COVID last month. Although it was not at all fun, it gave me the antibodies to make this trip possible. My dad is having surgery tomorrow so I’m helping with my mom so my dad can recover without having to worry about her.

Kansas is enjoying frigid temperatures and snow. I picked a great week to head south.

F is for...food photography.
.
This time of year especially, food photography (and I guess all photography actually) is a tug of war with time and light. I had planned on making and photographing a delicious pasta recipe, but my grocery delivery ran a couple of hours late because of snowstorm. So, at the eleventh hour I decided to make a cake...that took over an hour to bake and I had about 90 minutes of natural light left...leaving me with about 30 minutes of ok light to work with.
.
Anyway, this wouldn't work for a client shoot because the cake, although delicious, didn't turn out looking so great. But it will work great for today's F photo for the @kimklassen_innercircle A-Z photo project:) Lemon Citrus Yogurt Cake from this weeks @cabotcheese newsletter. So good!

E is for...Excitement!
.
There’s a lot of excitement in Kansas City as our beloved @chiefs head back to the Super Bowl this weekend! #runitback 🏈
.
It’s so strange because winning the super bowl last year was the last “normal” thing that happened before the pandemic hit. We went from a city full of excitement to shutting down and sheltering in place. Maybe when we win and bring the trophy home this year, it’ll be the start of something great. Let’s hope!
.
Who are you rooting for Sunday? Chiefs, Buccaneers or tacos? 😂
