I've decided that I'm finished with snow pictures. Except for these, because they teach a lesson. Remote control helicopters are bound to land on the roof when used outdoors. Especially in winter, when climbing up on a ladder becomes hazardous. I love that my kids are always learning new things.
From now on, until I can get outside and take pictures of something green, I'll be looking around the house for things to focus my camera on.
Like a rare shot of the sun shining through the window.
Or the mess I make of my kitchen. It's been a hot spot of activity lately.
I made one of my best batches of chili ever...plus corn bread.
And this creamy vegetable rice, just like those instant rice packages but better, and minus all the processed, packaged, instant ingredients. I was inspired by this recipe.
A cookie jar that is as old as our oldest child, filled...
...with my attempts at healthifying treats. Some good results, some not so good.
Hubby brought home a 22lb bag of flour. He saw that I was on a mission.
And someone was so distracted they left half a bagel sitting in the toaster. All day.
I'm done with snow photos too! Kinda. I find myself looking for inspiration elsewhere. Like our one nice day on Saturday! Sun! And above freezing!
ReplyDeleteLove the helicopter. Love the creamy rice based on the creamy pasta recipe.
Love the cookie jar and its history.
Wonderful idea for color ~ great shots ~ love the little boy ~ he is adorable ~ thanks

You look as though you were on a mission with all that cooking. Great to see a kitchen such a hive of activity. Those cookies look great by the way.
ReplyDeleteLove the bagel shot Jenn and, incidentally, I've seen kitchens FAR worse than that be described as tidy!
ReplyDeleteIf that's the messiest your kitchen gets, you're doing great! Enjoyed your photos.

ReplyDeleteWhat no more snow photos? Awwww. Of course I'm kidding, I'm so done with snow, snow photos and this winter period. I'm love with your kitchen! Mine is in great need of a reno. I don't think the kitchen has changed much since the house was built 135 years ago. Well its not that bad but almost.

I definitely understand being done with snow. I was done after having only 1 snowfall. LOL Your kitchen looks perfectly clean compared to mine!
ReplyDeleteMy sister just came down from -5 degrees and is loving our South Florida weather. Our traffic down here is horrendous from all the snow birds coming down. Thank you so much for sharing it on Four Seasons Blog Hop. Pinning Now.
ReplyDeleteYou definitely told a story with those first three pictures! I think everyone is tired of snow. I'm always up for some good food pics. I'm hungry now!
ReplyDeleteYour desserts look delicious! I'm trying to eat more clean but sweets are definitely my downfall lol

ReplyDeleteamen to the snow. -44 last night and a blizzard today!. the food looks yummy!
ReplyDeleteDone with the snow too:) I love the way your kitchen looks, mine usually has every door and drawer open and flour all over the flour:) But when it's still, you know what, outside...there isn't much else to do:) Thanks for joining us this month on The Great Blog Train Ride and our trip to Windsor~ Lynn @ Turnips 2 Tangerines
ReplyDeleteHi Jenn,
ReplyDeleteWOW...I hear ya about all the snow, I'm so tired of it! We got more today! I cannot ever remember a winter worse than this one. We have very cold temps in New Hampshire, but I think you might be colder. Spring will be here soon, and we turn the clock ahead this Saturday. Do you change clocks in Canada?
Take care and think Spring :)
