The last day of my '20s
It just hit me that today is the last day of my twenties. Wow, time just flies by.
Things I have appreciated about my 20s:
Discovery
Openess
Learning from trial and error
Learning in general
Taking risks
Connecting with my passions
Big picture dreams and a sense of destiny
Seeing the world as a bigger place
Owning what's mine, figuring out what I want
Deeper relationships
Finding kindred spirits
Finding support networks
Healing
Forgiveness
Learning to say no
Learning to say yes to the right things
Learning to accept my limitations but also embracing strengths
Finding a voice
Empowerment
Respecting myself and others
Caring for others in deeper ways
Learning that it's not always about ME
Initiating my own growth
Counseling
Traveling
The feeling of being untethered
Possibilities
Suffering is not always bad
Sometimes you need to choose to suffer
People are complicated
I'm complicated
I'm okay
God really loves me
So I take all these things with me into the next stage of life, ready to embrace what's waiting for me.

Been in a cooking mood--less eating out, more eating in.
 |
| I've been trying to make more dishes with beans. |
 |
| Red beans with andouille sausage from Everyday Food. |
 |
| Steamed lentils with spinach. |
 |
| Kalbi style steak salad. |
 |
| Butternut squash and mustard roasted chicken breast. |
 |
| Farmer's market finds. |
 |
| Roasted chicken with roasted apple onion fried rice. |
 |
| Roasted vegetables . . . the best. |

Prop styling?
One of the things I've enjoyed about this blog is getting a chance to post my "styled" photos of food, flowers, and plants. I've been thinking lately how fun it would be to work as a prop stylist. I'd love to style for catalogs and magazines.
I've also received feedback that a lot of my pictures make people feel peaceful. I'm glad . . . I think I'm a pretty peaceful and calm person in general so it's nice that my photos and vignettes communicate this part of my personality.
Here are some quirky photos from two summers ago . . . it's not even spring but I'm already thinking about summer . . .
