Workshop

A few weeks ago I took a photography workshop (Sierra Studios) and had such a great time! I learned so many new things and was able to practice shooting on live talents! :)

This is one of my favorite shots of the day.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Well, sort of. Since our temps in AZ have dropped down to the high 70s-80s I am officially in the Fall/Winter holiday mood.

I recently started my Christmas shopping...slowly but surely I hope to have a good handle on my shopping so I'm not doing any crazy last minute runs.

In an effort to keep on track I plan on attending this craft fair on Friday, Nov. 5 after work. I hope to score some pretty nifty gifts for everyone!



Check it out here!! I'm so excited!!!

Take a...


This is AMAZING!!!!! I have only tried one flavor thus far, but let me tell you--- this is some GOOD stuff! :)


Starbucks carries the Blackberry flavor (which I've tried), but there are many more flavors to choose from. Looks like they can be found at Whole Foods and Sprouts.


Zero sweeteners, zero calories, zero preservatives---unsweetened flavored water!
