January Miscellanea....

Each month I seem to have a number of random things that I want to share, so I thought that I would have a monthly Miscellanea post.  Here is my first one for the year.

Foodim

A girlfriend put me onto this wonderful App for your phone that lets you take gorgeous photos of your food.

It is the brainchild of famed English TV cook, Nigella Lawson. The story goes is that she was sick and tired of people putting up very ordinary photos of her food on IG and FB, so she developed this app to allow us plebs to photograph like the magazine professionals.

Here is one of my photos - it does look good, doesn't it?  (And the cherry pie was delicious).  You post on the Foodim App (which has its own social network) but you can save the photo to your phone so that you can then share on IG or FB easily.

... and here are some more of my pics....

You can read more about it in this article.

Floral Bouquet

My girlfriend kindly brought me these gorgeous flowers after my nose operation.

Family Photo

My daughter's boyfriend gave me this photo of the two of them (I can rarely get DD to allow me to photograph her) at a wedding.  I popped down to TK Maxx and found this perfect frame for only $10!

Brand New Garden

TraderVic and I are so proud of our new garden. Over the past year we have turned nothing into something. What a feeling!

Freebie

I came across this rather sweet freebie, from Stitching the Night Away

Movies

TraderVic and I have been to see a few movies over January.

1917 - absolutely phenomenal. I so felt that I was there in the trenches.

JoJo Rabbit - oh, my goodness, what a brilliant film!  Who would have thought that a story about a ten year old boy living in a small town in Nazi German, whose imaginary friend is Hitler would actually work?????

Knives Out - this nod to Agatha Christie was a lot of fun although I did find Daniel Craig's channelling of Kevin Spacey's accent a little off putting.

Well, that is it for my January Miscellanea.

Thanks for visiting and please don't forget to leave a comment as I do love a good chat,

hugs,
