321/365-2 Give Thanks for Comfort Food

“Comfort Food” The suggestion with today’s prompt was to photograph a can of soup.  Nothing says comfort like chicken noodle or tomato soup, right?  But, after photographing oatmeal yesterday as my lame response to home cooking, there was no way that I was going to photograph a can of soup today.   Chicken and sausage jambalaya was on the menu tonight…from scratch!  It was warm and hearty and comforting.  Since the intention of today’s prompt was to challenge ourselves to…

“Oatmeal for Dinner” I am truly chuckling as I post today’s photo…of cooking from scratch???  I do enjoy cooking …from scratch.  I do cook most of our meals…from scratch.  Today just didn’t happen to be one of those days.  After church this morning we had a fantastic lunch with a group of our most treasured friends.  Lunch was delightful and filling.  When dinnertime rolled around, neither of us was particularly hungry.  Finally I decided that I should eat something…and oatmeal…

“Perseverance” After a morning rehearsal, I “took the day off.”  I didn’t do anything today that resembles work in any way…no work for school and no household chores.  Right now this feels really good.  Tomorrow when I have to do laundry and prepare for school next week, I may be sorry for my day of irresponsibility, but right now I am feeling pretty darn good! It was cold and wet here today.  I didn’t have much inspiration or much incentive…

“Sleepy Boy” Our boy likes to talk – mostly about food.  He also likes to tell us how happy he is when we get home, which usually takes at least an hour.  He likes to talk to the critters outside.  He also likes to tell us how much he loves us.  When he finally finds his quiet place, the rest of us can also enjoy a quiet place.

“Making Memories of Pumpkin Bread” At this time of year my mom always used to make pumpkin bread, a favorite treat of mine.  When I got married (the first time) she copied by hand many of my favorite recipes from my childhood (and of few of her favorites that have never made it on to my favorites list).  For many years, I pulled the card for the pumpkin bread straight out of the box and used it as it was,…

“Time To Zip Up” Our 80 degree temperatures of today are going to become freezing temperatures over the next couple of days.  Like most of the United States, Texas is preparing for its first blast of cold air of this season.  I am ready for it!  I like the cold.  Tonight I dug out my warm clothes wool coat.  I am looking forward to the days when I can come home from school and put on my sweats and flannel…

“Us In November” Today’s photo was supposed to be a portrait using interesting light.  Truthfully, I was uninspired.  There is not much creativity here and there certainly isn’t any interesting light. Each month I have attempted to take a photograph of each of the girls and one of Weber and me together.  Amidst the chaos of the month of October, I didn’t get a photo of us, so today was the day.  Everyone has to break the rules every now…
