Project 365 Saturday: 1-14

by Stephany on June 4, 2011

One of my goals for 2011 was to complete Project 365, taking a picture a day for an entire year. I failed miserably after February but I’m not giving up until I see this thing through! Therefore, to give me further motivation and incentive (and a way to remember!), I will be posting my photos here on Saturdays. As the weekends are notorious for low blog traffic, it’s the perfect little series. Enjoy my first two weeks of pictures!

001 – The Sunshine Skyway Bridge, taken as my cruise ship was sailing underneath. We only had 6 inches between the top of our ship and the bottom of the bridge! Quite close!

002 – What a storm looks like from a cruise ship.

I LOVE salsa chicken! It is SO good!  We always pair it with rice and tortilla chips.

And your new cut is AWESOME!

Good for you! I attempted it twice, failed both times and have just accepted it :) the only bad thing is I bought these P365 scrapbooks that I'm now stuck with, ha!

I WISH I still had the willpower for project 365. Your pictures are kinda making me feel wistful about it though, I had fun when I was seeing it through! Maybe I'll join you next week or some Saturday soon in this weekly post thing? PS: I think this might be the nicest I've ever seen your hair on you, it keeps getting more gorgeous!

I got the "recipe" from a blog – maybe yours? Easiest dinner ever!

I'm so pleased with the cut. I didn't know I was going that short but my stylist is a master and I didn't want to mess with her genius. Ha!

Yep! He's a miniature – only 11 pounds. Just a little guy. :)

Ha – this is my 3rd or 4th attempt. I'm hoping that making it a blog series, it will keep me focused. Let's check back in 3 months, though.

Yes, do it! I'm hoping that putting it on my blog, it will help!

Oh 365. I have made up all kinds of excuses as too why I stopped! lol. I'm blaming a lack of variety at the moment. Cute new "do"! :)

Oh fun!  What a great challenge/idea! 

I love your new haircut!  And your bedding!  I don't do well in Ikea as I get super duper overwhelmed.  Like bad.  But I know I need to go there after I move!

Thank you! It's pretty fun to work with. :)

Ikea is crazy! It would be nuts just with all the STUFF…but add all the people & employees and it's a crazyhouse. And you could easily spend so. much. money on things you didn't know you ever needed. ;)

It's super easy: just plop the chicken in the Crock-Pot, pour salsa on top, and let it cook! That's it. :) It gives the chicken an extra kick of flavor, I think.

I didn't know my stylist was going to go that short but I'm sorta glad she did! It's fun and perfect for the summer. :)
