While running my usual day-off errands, I decided to swing into Target to entertain my shopping addiction-- and look at what I found! Definitely worth the $7 I spent to bring this little guy home :)

It's a warm, sunny morning in Chicago, and after a long night of working, and another long night ahead of me, I needed a good cup of coffee to get going! My new project as of now is to master the circular polarizing lens filter I purchased, and it's proving to be a little tricky. The filter is great for scenic shots and still life, but it can't seem to keep up with the dogs while they're running around. I have some work to do.

The past two days have been gorgeous, and it's definitely starting to feel and smell like summer around here! Maybe it's the freshly cut grass and the smell of barbecue that fills the air every night! After a little yard work this afternoon I couldn't help but to get the camera out for a bit. The summer decor is out, but I swear if my plants keep growing at this rate, my little gnome is going to disappear very soon!

Finally I have a day off from work, and time to cook something delicious! On the menu for tonight: slow-cooked corned beef, potatoes, and carrots. Should be ready in just a few more hours :)

Finally the warm weather is back- sunny and 80 degrees! I had to get the camera out today!

After being neglected for a couple months, the site has finally been renovated and new photos have been added! It's a completely new layout, and you can expect to see more consistent updates from here on out!
