Not a creature was stirring...not even a mouse....

As a food photographer, I rarely get the time to take pictures of the actual food prepping/styling part of my job, so I thought I would pull the camera off of the tripod and bring it into the kitchen for a bit this afternoon. This time of year is traditionally candy-making time for me. I have been making chocolate covered Christmas goodies for several years now....and somehow it's just not Christmas around our house until both the peanut butter & coconut balls have been dipped in chocolate and the little chocolate mice have been assembled. It's just a little tradition around here. I hope you and your families are enjoying this wonderful time of year carrying on whatever traditions you might have...whether they take place in the kitchen or elsewhere....here's wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!

Let's Say Thanks...

Are you looking for a way to send a simple "thank you" to our U.S. troops? Check out this great site hosted by Xerox. You can choose a card design (created by children across the country) and Xerox will print the card and send it to our Troops. What a great opportunity to send a free personalized postcard greeting to deployed servicemen and women.

Merry Christmas and God Bless America!

Purse Angels

Need last minute gift-giving ideas? A friend of mine makes these adorable "Purse Angels". The details on each one are very unique. I had the pleasure of helping her out with a few shots today and I just kept saying "these are so cute!"....
