I've been "tagged" by Jenna of About Image Photography, and am now to share five reasons I blog...
5. Less formal and intimate atmospere for sharing than say flickr or other bulletin boards.
4. It's a window into my world of photography.
3. It's a record of my learning and growth.
2. I'm not faithful about updating the family page and one post every couple of days is less intimidating than updating 30-40 pics.
1. I want to "slurp" my blog into a book after one year with Blurb. Hopefully the improvement from day one to day three hundred and sixty five will be dramatic. If I had to come back and recreate the year, it would never get done.
Off to tag some others!
I'm not nearly html literate enough to figure out how to put active links, but labled differently in the thread... I'll leave that to you young cool kids!

Chilean Sea Bass with a Lemon Grass Slaw
Coated with a Rice Crispie crust, pan fried and finished in the oven. Delicious!
White House Food Service Garnishes
The swans are turnips, the red flowers are beets, the purple leaves are eggplant, and the large rose is a watermelon.
Lunch with the White House Food Service Staff
Just in case my Friday wasn't exciting enough, I spent Saturday at the US Naval Observatory attending a conference for spouses of Naval officers who have been selected for command. At the third module, the chefs from the White House's East Wing, presented us with recipes and cooking tips for 10 recipes from the menu at the White House. There were beautiful garnishes on display. It is clearly evident that these young men enjoy what they do, and are very good at it! We had a great time talking with them and asking all sort of questions regarding the first family and life as their chefs. And of course, all the yummy food wasn't too bad either. The Master Chief and another Chief presented aprons to the Admirals' wives who hosted and planned the seminars.
