During the last half of the August Photo A Day Challenge I was thrilled to have one of my photos – Breakfast – chosen as part of the “Fab Nine” on the FMS Photo A Day Facebook Group. It’s the sort of thing that happens very rarely for me, so when it does it totally makes my day! It’s certainly not the reason why I participate in the challenge each month, but it’s so nice to get that extra shot of validation now and then.
I’ve been sharing my photos on Instagram, Twitter, Flickr, and the FMS Photo A Day group on Facebook, but thought I’d also periodically do a round-up of my photos here on Alphabet Salad for the benefit of my readers who aren’t active on any of these platforms.
Hope you enjoy!

I’ve already started the September Photo A Day Challenge… and you know what? It’s not too late for YOU to join in! Just one photo a day, no special camera equipment required (I do everything in my iPhone) – so I say go for it. What do you have to lose? You might just surprise yourself with what you produce and how much you enjoy it!
So who’s doing the September Photo A Day Challenge along with me?
Please share!

What a great photo for “Dull” – and I wish I had the recipe for “sweet”!

Thank you! The dessert is from my favourite restaurant back in Victoria, Pagliacci’s. It’s called Turtle Pie, and it’s amazing! It’s probably a very good thing that I DON’T have the recipe, LOL!

Gosh those are breathtaking. Loved Breakfast and frangrant and before bedtime. Actually they’re all lovely… except maybe dinner – we’re used to huger dinners!!

LOL – that dinner was a day I cooked for myself (Peter usually does the cooking) and couldn’t be bothered doing anything more than grilled cheese!

Laurel, I love the simplicity of your photos. I was surprised to see that ‘dinner’ looked like breakfast to me!
Keep on photographing!

Thank you! Dinner was kind of like breakfast that day – just a grilled cheese sandwich on the weekend when Peter wasn’t cooking. It was awfully tasty, though!

Your photos are incredibly appealing. I have already cooked lunch but I am now craving a large bowl of cereal and some peanut-butter toast, thanks to your pictures
I hope you’re happy
