Monday, Monday. Back to the real world. Drove home from Philadelphia last night with a lovely friend and Sandi Doodle. I do adore that city and all of the entertainment options it provides.I had been tracking my mail lady online all day on Friday because I had a special package headed my way... I got a new lens for my camera! I've been experimenting with it the past few days. Trying different settings, figuring out the lighting, taking pictures of silly things just to see how they turn out. For example: (Honeybells. Super juicy goodness!) (Extra strong coffee with my...

Happy Friday, everyone! The end of the work-week has finally arrived. I hope you all have big plans, or at least big plans that include relaxation, for both Saturday and Sunday.

Staying in bed allll day on...

 Last weekend, my dear friend, Jillian (of Jillian McGrath Photography), came to visit for the weekend. I had such a nice time taking her on an adventurous tour of my little coastal town. We toured a historic house and hotel that were built in the mid-1800's, at lots of delicious food, shopped locally, and explored to island of Assateague. I know that I've talked about Assateague on the blog a few times before. (If I'm on the beach in any of my photos, that's most likely Assateague Island. It's kind of my home away from home.) Assateague is both a...

Enjoy a little pick-me-up midweek. Free positive thoughts! I printed this image and hung it on our work refridgerator, my own refridgerator, and my friend, Tracy, hung it in her work office, too. Spreading some positivity in December. Take one!
