A couple weeks back I got together with some incredibly talented ladies who share the same love for food & pixels that I do. Which is kind of ah-mazing when you don’t have to apologize for indulging in some cold grub post picture snapping…… (yes, I’m one of those, but not publicly, or at least […]

Ahhhhh it’s September (way to point out the obvious Julia) and I’m 100 percent pushing summer out the door like it ain’t no thang. Goodbye sweat stains in strange places, you have been anything but kind to me, and I blame you for my nonexistent dating life (kidding, I blame a ton of other stuff […]
