Oh, it has been a looooong week. Everyone in my house has been sick. Well, not our cat Hannah, but that's the only exception. I am still under the weather but I think I will be feeling 100% again by Monday, fingers crossed. Thank you to my understanding clients! It's not easy being sick *and* taking care of a sick little one home from school in the tail end of the busy season. Nevertheless, I have many, many things for which to be grateful. [Insert clever segue of someone not delirious on DayQuil here.] Today I picked up my camera for the first time in a week, but only to photograph a non-moving object. :) We got a tiny shipment from Japan this morning, and it undoubtedly just made it through customs for nearly exceeding the legal limits of cuteness. Since my daughter started pre-K in the fall and has been taking her lunch every day, I've been bemoaning the wasteful plastic baggie use going on. Solution? A little Tupperware from Target? Um, no. I gotta be me, folks. Bento boxes from Japan! Cutest. Things. Ever. We didn't exactly have a full refrigerator this week since we were shut-ins, but we played around this afternoon with what we had available--a little pre-Monday school lunch practice/Friday afternoon snack. You can imagine that M's is the one with popcorn. Voila. No more plastic baggies, and a good chance of mixing in some veggies soon and hoping that the little miss eats them simply because there's a cute little fork in them. Fingers crossed! :)
And now, prepare yourselves. Seriously. Can you stand the cuteness? Little soy sauce and mayo/catsup holders. What a bright little end to the week. :) Have a great weekend, all! It's the first weekend in 10 weeks that I haven't had a shoot, so there's no telling what trouble I might get into. ;) (and a p.s. to my photographer friends--how do you like those tomato catchlights? LOL!)
