Take a picture

How many photos do you take of the same dish before feeling like you adequately captured the meal’s deliciousness?

Sometimes I feel like a nut job circling the table taking a million and one pictures of the exact. same. thing.

Dancing around doing laps like a hawk stalking it’s prey.

Until I finally feel satisfied that I got the perfect picture of breakfast.

Who would have thought the lighting of effing oatmeal would ever be so important to me. 

I hope I’m not the only one…

Anyways, clearly this morning’s breakfast was oatmeal.  Nothing new or ultra revolutionary about it.

  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 banana
  • TJ’s peanut flour
  • NuNatural’s vanilla stevia

I added in carob chips as an afterthought.

As they melted, I stirred them in.

Stirred, stirred, stirred.

Now that’s a bomb a$$ bowl.  And I have 73 other photos of it as proof…

I usually only take 1-2 pictures of a certain dish (unless it’s unusually gorgeous) because I’m so hungry I just want to eat!
