It has been so nice these past couple days. I was surprised when I walked out to my car. My door wasn’t frozen shut, and I didnt have to blast the heat. Nice huh?
I’ve been seeing green everywhere. Im very ready for spring and summer.

So I dont have much to share. Its been one of those weeks. My cold came back worse than before. ( like woah bad) my computer broke, and honestly I havent picked up my camera since last weekend.
But I did make a great chocolate bread pudding. It was seriously good. I had been having a craving for some, so I took all my old bread and whipped some up. Its quite easy actually.
I am hoping to pick up the camera this coming weekend. Im going on a few small trips and want to take lots of pictures.
Have a great weekend.

Here are a few more shots from some B&W rolls I shot a few weekends back. They are nothing too special, but I think they all look good together. This roll doesn’t look as expired as the previous one. I’m really liking difference in the snowy window image posted here, and the one I posted before
I had a pretty nice weekend. Food and drinks, movie, friends, a concert, all good times. The head cold is still hangin’ around, but Im feeling better. Thanks to those of you who posted great remedies.
( My favorite was putting whiskey in my tea. Very good)
See you all here tomorrow.

Feeling a bit under the weather. Drinking lots of tea and consuming an abundance of vitamin C.
I have people coming this weekend. Excited. Lets hope I can shake this bug.
Have great weekend.

Making lunch from last nights dinner has to be my favorite type of lunch. Its quick and often the food tastes even better the second time around.
I had a leftover chicken breast, so I had chicken salad with toasted almonds, apples, extra celery, and a dash of relish.
I then used last nights roasted yukon taters’ to make a cold potato salad. I added some red wine vinegar, feta cheese, dash of dill and black pepper. ( its a new favorite, seriously–try it.)
Have a good Thursday.

As I mentioned before, I have been working on a new project. I wanted this project to feel a bit more personal. An exploration. I think Ill call this project …Inside.
I love seeing daily routines, lifestyles, things. The way people live, their constants. I also love seeing what they live in, their space.
Interiors and food have to be my two favorite things to photograph. You all see what I eat, a lot ( maybe too much?) So to switch gears a bit, I thought, why not show my interiors/lifestyle through a series of post. A journey through my house.
I find my photography style constantly changing, so I wanted this project to be a bit more abstract. Very simple photos, moments if you will, sometimes just of light or texture. I want to capture the details that I find most appealing. To show the space in a pure raw form. To explore.
To start, I will share my bathroom. A very small space, but it is one of the brightest spots in the house. The light changes through this space constantly. I love it.
I hope you like them.
Also, since you are getting a peak into my world, go ahead and find out a bit more here. Catherine, over at Parismages has posted an interview with me. Check it out. ( Thank you, Catherine)
So I finally got my B&W film back last night. (one roll at least)
I have been wanting to shoot black and white for a while now. You notice the light in a picture so much more.
The film was expired. I found it under my desk and thought I’d give it shot. I think they turned out ok. The color seems way off, not to mention I have a cheap scanner. But I like the texture with the almost sepia tones.
These are just are a few. I will share more in the coming week.
Have a great one.

( images dont go together, but they sum up my weekend well.)
Whew, what a weekend. It was beyond nice. ( seriously, be jealous) 63 degrees and sunny. I spent almost the whole weekend on the back deck.
Went out with some great people on friday for a birthday, ate some great mexican ( fajitas), made breakfast ( biscuits with honey butter) took riley on a walk, made pizza (on an asiago cheese baguette), and bought girl scout cookies ( 3 boxes!)
Awesomeness. So nice for the middle of February, right?
Hope you all had a great weekend.
Thanks for the nice comments here and on flickr lately. They mean a lot.
Hoping to share my black and white tomorrow, if they ever call and say its ready. Stay tuned.
I thought these 2 photos here turned out pretty cool. Its kinda like winter and spring mixed together.
I plan on hanging out this weekend. Reading, cleaning, interneting… napping.
It supposed to be nice out tomorrow ( about 60 degrees) so I am excited for that.
Have a great weekend. Ill see you back here Monday/Tuesday to share some film.

This week has been one of those weeks. You know when you barely have time to eat? The work has finally slowed down and Im very ready for the weekend.
So I thought I would share the few photos I took lately. Some food and things I am currently loving.
- I got these great fingerling potatoes for roasting and some awesome yukon golds for breakfast. So good.
-I finally got a plant for the house. Its leafless, succulent, and requires little or no maintenance. Im not sure what it is, but its pretty awesome looking, no?
( you might think it is dead, but its not. promise.)
-Chocolate chip pancakes with milk. Need I say more?
Hope you all had a great week.
Have a good weekend.

Well I made it to the mountains. However, an unexpected snow has fallen. ( its still falling as I type)
Its nice, but its sorta putting a damper on the plans we had. ( i like this image though)
I also put a bunch of B&W film in my camera. Excited to get them developed.
Hope you all have a good weekend. Ill be reading, watching the Olympics and seeing friends.
See ya next week.
So I have this huge window in my shower. Its great for light in the bathroom, but not so much for privacy. So I’ve placed a small plastic curtain half way down. It creates a great glow in the afternoon.
I like the light. Thought you might too.
The week is half over and I am excited for the weekend. Headed to the mountains. Hoping to go on a photo hike and have a few drinks with friends.

You know those meals you had when you were young? The food that was very simple, usually included cheese, and you dunked it? Well this weekend I had just that. I always forget how much I love grilled cheese. Its even better along side a bowl of tomato soup. Call me 7 years old, but it was super.
Crunchy sourdough bread around melted swiss and provolone ( sprinkled with a little bit of sea salt)
Canned tomato soup. I know, how lazy of me, but I doctored it up with lots of cream, fresh cracked black pepper, and sprinked with a bit of rosemary.
I am working on a themed project. I hope to share it real soon, so be on the look out for that. Otherwise, hope your week is off to a good start.

Another day of snow around here… When will it end? Seriously, is it April yet?
I’m not much of a breakfast person. However, if you give me potatoes with eggs, I’ll eat.
Today I made pan potatoes with rosemary and garlic–slow cooked til crispy brown– and 2 fried eggs with a dusting of curry.
See you all back here next week.
-tim
Just a few more engagement photos of Lauren and Ben. See the others I posted here.
Have a good weekend.

Lunch has been a quick routine lately…but its still been pretty good.
I got this great lebanon bologna. (seriously, if you have never had it…go buy some. very good.) Worked great on an open faced sandwich with some gruyere.
Was even better on greens with a dijon vinaigrette.
Busy rest of the week. Hope to get back here soon.
Cheers

Here are some images from a snow adventure around the neighborhood this past weekend. I really like these photos next to each other. Its something more than just the snow that ties them all together but I can put my finger on it.
Anyway…the snow is starting to melt and everyone seems to be crawling out of their homes.

Also, check out these photos from Payne and Franklin. They are right up my alley. Espeically this one and this one. Good stuff.
Hope your having a great week.

I know, a lot of my posts have been centered around my kitchen lately, but I did make some goals, remember?
Well, we got quite a bit of snow this weekend. ( about 8″ ) So we did the only thing we could do; watch movies, eat and drink.
I made a slow cooker beer beef stew. Carrots, onion, celery, sweet potatoes and of course, some beer. It also called for a great homemade bbq sauce that turned out better than I thought.
Over all a great dish for a snow day.
The rest of the day we sipped on cocktails, ventured out in the snow and watched tv.
Will share some snow pictures tomorrow.

Not much going on. I have been quite busy. So Ill make a simple post.
I got these awesome glasses lately. Not to0 big not to0 small. The kitchen was casting a great pocket of light. So I figured I’d take advantage.
I also am noticing I have a small obsession with cutting boards. ( Lame?) I also love wooden plates and bowls. You should see my house… I have wooden bowls everywhere.
It is supposed to snow again this weekend. Im not sure how I feel about that…

We have had quite a few rainy days lately. A constant flat light with bits of sun. Makes for good naps.
On another note, I finally joined Flickr! ( well, I am finally uploading to flickr) I know, I know, I am really really late on catching the flickr bus, but ill catch up.
I’ll be honest, its a bit overwhelming. So many photos, so many styles. Its so easy to get sucked in for hours and hours. Its nice though.
Thanks again for all your comments lately. Hope you all are having a good week so far.
