Another Mithing Toof!

Wow! What a week. S lost ANOTHER toof today (contrary to the picture, he is happy about it. His movie was starting and he could not be bothered for a picture).

This site lists some Tooth Fairy customs from around the world - most are pretty standard - though, I now have another reason to be happy I am not a Mongolian dog.

In this pocket you will find

A teensy, tiny tooth of mine.

So while I sleep where dreams are made,

Let's see if you can make a trade.
In this pocket I will lay,the little tooth I lost today.

Please, dear fairy,tonight as I sleep

leave me a coin.

My tooth you can keep.

Tooth Fairy Templates

Click here for a copy of the templates I have used for the Tooth Fairy.
I did not create these, they were a share from one of the photography sites I visit - I so wish I could remember where I got them so I could give credit.

If the creator happens by, please post so I can credit and thank you appropriately.

Santa And The Tooth Fairy On The Same Day? Oh my!

S is more excited about losing his first tooth than any of the presents he got from Santa.

I Know What I'm Getting Phil For Christmas

North Pole Reprazent

Yes, Virginia, Santa Claus is keeping it real.

"Mommy, the kitty wants his picture taken"

How To Shoot a Stuffed Pepper and Other Things I learned About Food

My G, Lisa (aka Babs, aka Super G, aka Super Fuzz, aka ...), is creating a cookbook of cherished family recipes. She asked if I would photograph some of her dishes.

I don't know nuttin" about food styling or ANYTHING about taking pix of food - but I thought I would give it a shot anyway.

Believe it or not, it may actually be easier to take pix of six year olds than it is to take pix of shrimp dip. Shrimp dip has no catchlights! I know how to dress a kid for a portrait - how the heck do you dress a stuffed pepper?!

All in all, it was not a failure - I certainly learned the boundary of my knowledge and skill set. Click on the image below to see the gallery.
