Last week went by so fast and I didn't get done as much as I was hoping to. Monday I had a tickle in my throat, that turned into a full-blown cough. My energy was low and things got put off. I hate that. I'm still fighting a (what sounds like) smoker's cough, but my energy is way up today!
I've done the dishes, cleaned and swept the living room, edited photos for this entry and now I'm blogging. It feels good to be productive again. I did manage to snap a few food photos from last week and this weekend. What I did get done last week was design a new logo for my new fine jewelry line (lorrielizabeth), got my portfolio site started (coming soon), finished some design work and sold jewelry at Floyd Jamboree this weekend, all was not lost.
Here is what I ate:

I'll be the first to say that this doesn't look very good, we don't have a lot of natural light in our house and I was too lazy to go outside. Whole wheat bagel, local sausage, local eggs and possibly cheese of some sort.

This is grilled smoked sausage with onions and mustard with a side of pasta salad. I bought this from Oddfella's; they sell food at the Artisan Market that I attend on Friday's.

This is Josh eating, notice his new haircut! woo, I cut it myself, how handsome is he? Also notice that he is with me selling jewelry, he helps me set-up and often sits and reads while I sell jewelry. He is a good egg, he truly is.

Our groceries from the Floyd Farmer's Market. How cool is this? We can walk there too! We picked up peas, cherries, spinach, tomotoes, chicken, steak, eggs, sausage, broccoli and cheese.
















Gosh looking at your food pictures just made me hungry! I’m sorry about your cough it seems to be going around. I hope you feel better soon!
Your pictures look sooooooo tasty!! Especially that pink smoothie!!!
Are you going to be at any shows July 4th weekend? I will be in your area (I think) and would love to come and see your jewelry.

oh! and for those asking what camera I use it’s a canon rebel xti, I’ve had it for a couple of years now and still only use about a 4th of what the camera is good at.
Love the photos! Too bad I am stuck in a computer lab for another hour+ with no hope of food.
I would never think to mix fruit with savoury dishes. I can’t even imagine what strawberries and bacon are like together. But they do say that bacon goes with everything
You’re a gifted lady, jewelery, photography and hairdressing as well, is there no end to your talents??
I love your food pics – thinking I may try something like that. Not sure I could post daily – but maybe once a week post a few of the better ones. I enjoy your blog…

that last wrap looks delicious, especially so close to lunch! just a tip, when i get a cold (and with allergies, i do all the time) i like frozen fruit bars, like the ones dole makes or something. at least it’s healthy, but it soooooothes my throat.
also, is your site up yet? i just discovered this blog today, and it looks like cute jewelry!
that wrap looks delish and the smoothie too
My little brother played at the Floyd Jamboree! He was playing with a band called Johnson’s Crossroads. He’s only 18 and just graduated high school… and I am so proud if you can’t tell!
The farmer’s market goodies look awesome!
