May is always a busy month and this week was no exception to that rule. Monday was my mother’s birthday, which always falls around Mother’s Day (and often times on it) so there was a lot of celebrating going on. Tuesday I found myself feeling pretty sick and I am still not 100% sure what the culprit is. I started to feel better on Wednesday and I also had to play catch up with work.
Not only have I been working on my blog and my photography, but I have been working on something that I am extra excited about and I can’t share with the world just quite yet. (It is NOT a baby!)
Wednesday evening, John and I attended our second Advanced Cooking and Baking class. This time we made tiramisu, which I hadn’t made since 2005. Amazingly enough, it was even easier than I remembered. I will be sharing the recipe and my tips on making an awesome tiramisu on Tuesday!
Thursday was a busy day of work followed by an awesome evening of working out with friends. This weekend I am looking forward to shooting a wedding on Saturday, shooting a family session on Sunday, and relaxing and writing every chance I get in between.
As usual, the internet was filled with interesting ideas this week:
Pop Culture
What would Regina, Cady, Gretchen, and Karen wear today?
Editing SNL’s The Beygency sketch.
The Onion on Mother’s Day.
Who Run The World? GIRLS!
Countries with the most and least number of female legislators. I’m not very happy with where the USA is currently located on this list.
I’ve always liked Barbara Walters and I love that she can make fun of herself!
Karen Lum is definitely an inspiration.
I love Melissa’s thoughts on what direction she would like to see the body positive movement go in.
This Weekend
I can’t wait to sip on some ginger, mint, and lemon water this weekend!
I think I should rock these to The Roots
concert this weekend.
This weekend will be a busy one so I will be using some of these all natural energy boosters to keep my energy levels high!
Smartphone cameras are really stepping up their game. Capture something amazing this weekend!
