Hello!

Years after my former blog withered into obsolescence, I envisioned a rebirth: Less overshare (after all, there's always Facebook), and more focus on one of the best things of life--homemade food and baked goods! I've quickly become familiar with several challenges of the practical sort...how to photograph food so it actually looks as good as it does in person, and remembering to take pictures of all the dinners I cook. I've been contemplating this for a good while and taking the occasional picture of food I made because I seem to have become obsessed with taking pictures of food (witness vacation photos of the last couple years where I almost have to remind myself to take pictures of people too), but after a pleasant night tonight with the family, enjoying many fine grilled meats, I've decided to take the plunge. Here is the first set of attempts, starting with Christmas 2008 cookies. It might take some time to catch up on the backlog of food pics, but here we go...
