Handmade by each of them. Adelaide did the plate (her handprint is in the center although it's hard to see) and Magdalena made the cup and teapot which sits cozily in the cup!

87-366 Daffodil-such a silly name for a pretty flower
Most of my neighbor's daffodils are definitely on their last legs, but mine are still hanging in there. I must have a slightly different variety, but I'm sure mine won't last much longer.
Of course, I'm not really sure if this is a daffodil. It could be a Narcissus or a Jonquil. I tend to forget which one is which.

85-366 turnpike
Driving across the PA turnpike trying to take pictures from a fast moving car on a cloudy, rainy day.
Cars, barns, birds and "good eats".
And no, I wasn't driving!
84-366 birthday dinner
For my son's birthday we went to a restaurant called Tre Famiglia in Haddonfield , N.J. I really hate to use flash in a restaurant and this place was pretty dark, so I decided to try using my X10 on the EXR mode. I hate letting my camera make too many decisions, but didn't have time to trust myself with a camera I'm still slightly unfamilar with.
It did pretty well, other than the white balance seemed pretty far off. My son's arm still looks a little pink in that top right image even after some adjustments in camera RAW.
83-366 pink flowering tree again!
LOL, same tree as the day before. Not sure how long the blossoms will last this year.
82-366 pink flowering trees
We had a freeze last night after all the beautiful warm weather. Blossoms are dropping :(
81-366 Hawk
I am not a good bird photographer, not sure I have the patience. But when a young hawk sets up a vigil in your backyard it's hard to resist. His interest in our fish pond kept him on the branch a little longer than normal while I attempted to sneak up on him, but as you can see, he kept an eye on me.
80-366 "flowering trees"
I'm so excited about the early spring this year! I have a feeling I will go overboard with spring flower pics, but what can I say? They make me happy :)
78-366
Once in awhile you just have to go for a dinner that tastes good, but alas, is not good for you. So a trip to Five Guys for a burger and fries and then a stop next door for gelato (the real thing) on a warm, sunny day was perfect.

76-366 miniature daffodils
These were our first spring flowers up this year. They only grow a few inches high and would be easy to miss if not for their bright color.
75-366 spun sugar
My daughter spinning threads of gold for a dessert garnish.
Sorry, no after shot of the dessert. All the little curls went to work.
74-366 the trees are budding
Another quick shot out a window no less! All this lovely weather and I'm still uninspired! Still have shots sitting in my camera, too :(
72-366 Button, button, who has a button?
I keep saving all the buttons that come attached in little envelopes with new clothing. I don't believe I've ever used one. But I know for a certainty that the one time I don't save a button, I'm going to really need it and there won't a single match in all the others I've kept!
68-366 Pink!
I've been good about taking a daily pic, but not so good about getting them off my camera and onto flickr. I have some catching up to do!
66-366
Poor amaryllis, losing it's fourth and final bloom. It certainly was showy for a few weeks, though.

64-366 baby spoon
Mine from when I was little; a bit tarnished but I decided not to clean it up for the shot.
61-2012 holgaesque
Playing around with a little plastic lens attached to my 7D that produces Holga-style images. Unfortunately, not much to shoot on a dreary day.
62-2012 holgaesque 2
Another try with the holga-style lens. It needs a lot of light, so outdoors is the only place to go.

59-366 Pink Tulip
In another day or two this will droop and drop it's petals, so I'll get the most out of it with my macro lens :).
57-366 Sunday Breakfast
My husband and I decided a somewhat unhealthy breakfast was okay for a weekend morning, so we headed off to Panera's for a treat. Of course, you know how it is; you're hungry, everything looks so good, you can't make a choice of just one.
