Instaphotoshoot Me

Having a lot of alone time on my hands equals playing around at home. I´ve always wanted to try out the self-timer mode of the Nikon D70 and to try using a tripod to take photos.

Here are the ones that I liked from the hundreds that I must have taken! They aren´t perfect, check out the feather behind me which I needed to help the camera focus, needless to say I had a lot of fun doing this shoot.

P.S. All photos where taken in the bedroom where the afternoon sunlight is brightest. The walls at home are all white and makes the perfect backdrop for the shots I like to do.

From the Kitchen: Spicy Roasted Chickpeas

What a productive day! (If I may say so myself). I woke up early and since then I´ve done yoga, prepared lunch, taken photos and now writing this post while watching the news in Spanish (Hahaha). I still have a long ways to go as I start teaching at 7pm until 10.

I am excited because the other day I found a recipe (Spicy Roasted Chickpeas) from Brewedtogether´s page that I knew I was going to have to try and prepare myself.  (Before anything else, I want to say thank you for sharing, M&K). For the complete list of ingredients and preparation instructions do check out their page and along the way find inspiration, like I have!



I added a new ingredient, Iberian Patatera Spicy Sausage, to make the dish a little more heavy for lunch and to feed a hungry B when he gets back from class. I´m also serving the dish with some couscous. Just writing about it is making me hungry!

To prepare everything (including the coucous) took about an hour. I think this is perfect if you are looking for something quick and very tasty to chow down on.

What´s keeping you busy today? 

Bisous, bisous
