On The Blog | March 2017

March was the first month of 2017 where I actually blogged on a regular basis. I even surprised myself with that one!  After being in a creative funk for a few months, it was nice to get back to writing again.  Here’s what was on the blog in March:

Netflix Picks | March 2017 

At the beginning of the month, I shared my picks for Netflix shows/movies for March.  Unfortunately, I didn’t watch anything on Netflix this month, so they’ll have to go on my April list!  Also, do you notice in the graphic above that the line at the end of the ‘s’ in ‘picks’ is a different color?  Well, I only noticed that a few days ago!  Such professionalism here!

 

The Best Thing I Made This Week // 01 // 02 // 03 // 04

I started a new series this month:  ‘The Best Thing I Made This Week’.  I ended up doing 4 of these posts this month.  I love doing these and the most difficult part is trying to decide on what pictures to put in!  I’ve been loving my food photography lately and am getting better at it everyday.  I’m by no means a professional, but it’s something I’m excited to learn.

Because I couldn’t let these sit on my computer, here are a few pictures that didn’t make the cut on my posts.    The reason a lot of my pictures don’t make the cut is because they end up all looking the same. I take a ton of "just in case" pictures because I usually eat/drink what I photograph immediately, so it leaves my pictures looking similar.

 

 

Link Love // 05 // 06 // 07 // 08 // 09

My absolute favorite thing to do on the blog right now is the ‘Link Love’ posts.  I love finding new blogs to and reading what other people write.  I read so many blog posts this month!  Reading other blogs helps with my creative flow.

Also, I mentioned in one of my link loves that I signed up for some freebies.  So far, the only thing to come in was the Jiffy Recipe Book.  I’m going to be blogging at least one recipe from it in April!

 

 

My workout routine
Workout Jams // 01 // 02

I started the month out strong with my workouts, but it faded quickly.  With the weather warming up, I want to take my workouts outside with walking.  I do miss the energy after working out, so I should get back to doing some sort of workout ASAP!

 

Rainbow in a Jar

This was a last minute St. Patty’s day idea that I had a lot of fun photographing!  So much fun that there were 5 pictures that didn’t make the cut, but I’m going to share them now because they’re so colorful!

I didn’t put the last one on my blog originally because you can really see how much I suck with the paint pen!

Nature

The waterfall we visited was so cool!  I can’t wait to get back!  It will also give me a chance to practice my outdoor photography.

The Squirrels of Niagara // Niagara Falls

We took a super short trip to Niagara Falls, NY and it’s another place I can’t wait to get back to!  I even randomly came across the story of Nik Wallenda on TV the other night, which fueled my desire to get back there even more! 

Aaand we’re done!  I loved recapping this month with you and showing some of the stuff going on behind the blog!  I’ll be sure to take more photos next month for an even more behind the scenes experience!
