It's a sign

I didn't get a picture of the one that went up after this one came down, but it was a good one too. "Sign broken. Message inside."

Special Surimi Salad

Here is the very technical recipe for my special surimi salad. It's what I like to have when I feel like cutting back on calories, but can't bring myself to eat lettuce.


Ingredients:
Some Krab
Some Red Onion
Some Black Olives
Some Fresh Tomatoes
Some Frozen Corn
Some Frozen Peas
Some Italian Dressing

What to do:
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and eat.

Delish! You really could add all sorts of things.

I think she may be getting used to the camera!

She is such a sweet dog.

On February 16, 2003, I wrote a short entry in my journal about the pretty and sweet lost gray tabby cat that no one was looking for. Five years later, look who is still here!

The baptism

It was strange being back in church for such a serious and intimate event. Both mom and baby were baptised in a dark corner of the church behind a large hanging drop cloth--the rest of the altar area was wreck! They are busy constructing a set for the Easter cantata. Immediate family came, along with a few friends. It was very sweet and I'm happy I was invited.

The pictures are okay. A lot of them aren't as sharp as I'd like, and I can't tell if it's because my focus is way off or if it is the shallow depth of field that I need to get used to. The church was A LOT darker than I expected and that was a challenge. Correct white balance is also proving to be tricky for me. But I was able to get a few good shots and that makes me happy. I'm not going to post any here, though, since I didn't ask for permission. Sorry!

In your face

Here is our camera shy dog, Dixie.


Right now, I am getting a lot of noise that isn't very pretty. I guess because of the high ISO?
