I’m Blushing…

My entry for Click! Metal 
My entry for Click! Metal photo event.

…or maybe it’s just the sunburn I got in Portugal!  Yes, that’s right, I’M BACK!   But am unfortunately short on time today as I come back into orbit from what was a truly amazing trip to Portugal.  I will definitely be filling you in on all the details and showing off a bunch of atmospheric photos in some upcoming posts. 

But right now, I wanted to toot my horn just a teeny bit and tell you about being awarded two wonderful (and prestigious among food bloggers) food photography honors in recent days!  What a lovely homecoming surprise!

Thank you!    Obrigada!    Merci! 

Also lovely to come home to were all the comments everyone left while I was gone - I promise to make my way through responding to them all as the week progresses.  I might also blush a bit to admit that I missed this little dialogue thing we’ve got going here…   Let the good times roll!

Gee golly, I’m flattered!   Here are some kind remarks made about the blog:

The Arizona Republic’s  style reporter, Jamiee Rose, gushed about the pumpkin pop-ups, calling them the gooiest, most glorious pumpkin dessert I’ve seen this season.”
