great food + amazing outfit = awesome day!

It was one of those really normal days. Wake up, run, get ready for work, work until lunch, eat lunch, work some more, go home. 

At least there's fun clothes and tasty food to make the day exciting! I love my black and white sweater, especially with a belt to give it a bit more form. I also love a work sandwich, especially when there's grainy Dijon, black forest ham, Havarti cheese and toasty 12-grain bread.

  I wanted to make dinner something a bit more special!

A tasty ginger teriyaki stir fry with lots of veggies. With that I made amazing Spicy Peanut Tofu and Quinoa. It definitely made my day!

Leave it to food and clothes to make an everyday awesome!

aerial photo experiments

I've been reading a lot about photography and cameras lately (especially since the "accident"). In food photography one technique is the aerial shot when there isn't a lot of height to your subject (don't quote me on that, I'm not a professional! Google it!)

My meals today were the guinea pigs for testing the theory out:

Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal with skim milk and banana slices.

Broccoli and Carrot Stir Fry with Spicy Asian Tofu (marinated in soy sauce, cranberry/apple jelly, chili flakes, rice wine vinegar and sesame oil). On the side- a tomato, avocado and walnut salad.

Salads make great close up shots too! I messed up my close up of the stir fry by not focusing enough.

I have a pants theme this week. I only packed pants for my outfits and it's quite comfy! I guess I'm putting off buying nylons!

Do you have any photography tips?
