Vice

 

 

 

Ok, I do see a pattern among us.....but I admit it, "music" soothes the savaged beast.  LOL.

Vice - still strong enought to admit it :)

I went to Africa with my mom and some friends a couple of years ago, and found this.  Amarula...  It's so yummy!  I could have some every day. 

Vice

Some vices are best kept as a secret... especially if you are a dietitian.   My vice is wrapped up away from even my own eyes and hidden in this bag.  To be opened on Easter Day.

Vice

The bookies still keep going in the rain - great umbrellas

Vice

My vice? I watch too much TV. Oh well, there are a lot worse things I could be doing!! Here I am in my recliner watching my favorite show.

The vice in our garage. I was making chalkboards.

Vice

I have a weakness for gummy candy - sour, sweet, bears, worms, you name it. So when this Swedish candy store that specializes in gummy candy opened up right by my work, I knew I was in for some trouble!

Pam and I had a conference in Las Vegas this week.  Perfect timing for "Vice".  What else can I say??

Vice

We have sweet tooths as big as a sabre-toothed tiger!

Vice

Bookies at Cheltenham Races where £157million turnover of legal gambling in a week.  Interesting to note in USA $350 billion yearly turnover of illegal gambling - if legalised think of the tax the Government could collect!!

Vice

"Vice (noun) Definition: Wicked or immoral behavior."

...yep...Vegas seems to fit......

Vice

If I could eat some form of sausage every day and know my arteries could take it, I would!

Vice

The only thing missing here is a pack of cigarettes! Racing at Cheltenham where plenty of drinking/smoking and gambling go on for a week!

VICE

Our part of the world continues to be in the VICE-like grip of Winter.  After a few days of Spring we have had heavy snowfall and bitterly cold, strong winds.

I have a problem when it comes to potato chips. I try hard to leave them in the store but unfortunately the Kettle Sea Salt and Vinegar were not removed from my cart.

Vice

Too much of a challenge . Went to the library to see about 'Vice- President' and the librarian only directed me to these 2 books ! !!

The college books and papers on the floor sum up where my attention has been the last few weeks but I hope to give my photos more time in the near future

A bus bench I passed today with the words 'Patchogue Shores' in cut-out letters on the back where you sit.  Behind is a berm with a rock wall.

Two Point Perspective

I love how the windows on this building along with the sidewalk view create three different photos in one.

James constructed this framework (not to scale) in his Tech class.

This was a hard challenge - I think I have 50 different pictures!

New kitchen in a box, perfect for this weeks blog.

This was a hard challenge for  me and you all have taken fabulous photos! Here is an old building I spotted on  the way back from a hike in the mountains east of San Diego.  It is quite "country" not far away.

Two Point Perspective

This was tough as I was trying to capture my little 3 month old while still getting the two point perspective! We also have a dresser directly left which was nearly impossible to keep out of the photo. But alas, meet Libby and my attempt at two point perspective.

I was totally uninspired this week but finally decided that I would go into town on Friday (today) and take pics of the street corners.  But guess what?  We got half a foot of snow (at least) and my car can't handle our hill.  So we stayed at home all day and I had to make do with what I had...

Perspective reflective, snowy/rainy Apple cube as I left the office this evening.

Well my wander was round non-sunny London with some interesting perspectives taking my fancy and thought this cherub added to it - so here's another - guess where.  

Two Point Perspective

I had such fun with this theme.  Having no idea what photo to take, I decided to wander around my neighborhood yesterday during the one day of sunny weather we've had in a while, looking for inspiration.  I even started to experiment with different functions on my camera for the first time after having been given a lesson by another fellow blogger a few weeks ago.  This one was taken using a "fish-eye effect."

Two Point Perspective

Well what a challenge this week has been - purely because I wanted to get an outside the box photo - so here it is!! Almost got run over doing it.

Two Point Perspective

Only a few of my many Post-it note pads at work. Greatest invention that happened by mistake!

Two Point Perspective

A second posting this week? Gemma pointed me in the direction of using my iPad for posting Project 52 photos away from my computer. She suggested practising.....so....blue skies and the coming of Spring in the UK. Hoping this works and thanking Gemma.

                     Went to Costco and took my photo of the magazine rack.

Pipes

I thought this was a clever use of a pipe. It is the foot rest at a restaurant bar.

Pipes

Down memory lane for Gemma - in the background 'pipes' of churros to dip into thick drinking chocolate. Now for next week!!

Pipes

I'm thankful for the pipes in this drinking fountain year-round, though especially so during long winter runs when the running water here is a welcome oasis in the otherwise frozen city... and I find it quite funny to explicitly instruct people in New York to wait.

I will admit this was not my favorite assignment, I guess I don't find pipes very interesting 

but I know someone who does...   so I followed him to work one day!

Even the square shapes are considered pipes!

James has two new cousins, Madeline and Brady.  Madeline has a strong set of "pipes" as you can imagine from the look of her in this photo!

Pipes

PVC pipes made into 'whisper phones' for kids to read quietly to themselves without distractions. This is only one end of three 'phones' because I thought the photo was more interesting than the photo of the whole 'phones.'

Pipes welded together to keep my husband safe while he is racing in his race car.
