Gringalicious Thursday Things - FOOD PHOTO SHOOT

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

Happy Thursday again. So the flu season this year has been ridiculousness. Anyone else? I’ve been trying to pretend I didn’t have this annoying cold all week, but to be honest it’s got me feeling pretty crappy today. Also, the temperature here is supposed to reach the 50s, that’s so crazy for February here. I know I keep mentioning the warm weather but it’s just so unusual. Also, my nephew is turning 3 tomorrow. Wow, how come no one ever tells you how old these things make you feel? I’m not sure I feel old enough to be an aunt “Doh-Dee” to a 3-year-old.

Oh, and if you’re wondering about the waffle photos. I used my Chai Spiced Buttermilk Waffles recipe and topped them with chocoalte syrup, pom arils, mangoes, and whipped cream.

Anyway, today’s Thursday Things ->

1.Valentine’s Day is now less than a week away so if you’re looking for some recipe inspo, this cake and this cake are both ones I’d suggest.

  1. Okay, so I mentioned that my sister recommended that I start The Shanara Chronicles and now I’m totally hooked. I’m not far enough into it to know how highly I’d recommend it, but I’ll let you know if it stays as intriguing.

  1. I’ve been having a moment with mangoes recently. I don’t know why, I guess I just hadn’t bought them in a while and I’d forgotten how delicious they can be when they’re at that perfectly ripe stage. This recipe is only the first of many that will probably be showing up on the blog soon.

  1. You know those times when you find things you didn’t even know you needed? Well this is one of those times. Yep, top of the list right here. Uh huh.

  2. Haha, but in all seriousness I actually do need some new active shoes because my favorites are getting pretty threadbare so when I saw these I was like 😍😍😍 I just might have to place an order.

  1. Okay, and this fail is just too epic not to make sure you’ve seen it. I mean, how often does your sister catch your brother-in-law on video with this kind of fail? It’s on Youtube.

  2. My San Diego trip is only days away now. I can’t wait and I’m still open to hear any specific must-sees from you guys. I’m also already thinking ahead about where we want to go on the next trip.

  1. I’m pretty sure it’s official that the New Year’s resolutions for the gym have pretty much died by now because my last few times there have been getting steadily less crowded. Not gonna lie, I’m totally fine with that because it makes me crazy when there’s someone standing around waiting for me when the gym is a zoo.

  2. These last 2 things I’m pretty excited about. Firstly, I’m looking at designing a new logo for Gringalicious because I just feel like something fresh.

  1. Okay, and this is a big one you guys, I’m shopping for my first car!!! Not sure yet which one but my criteria is that it has to be fairly economic on gas, have 4-wheel drive because # ->northidaholife, and have at least some utility space for whatever shenanigans I’m up to.

Hope your day is going well and you’re starting some fun plans for the weekend.

I love it when you make waffles, and when you go crazy with chocolate, that's lit!

cok guzel bir yazi olmus umarim kisa surede iyileşirsin 😊

the first,
your cake looks so good.
very delicious.

that is very focus and sharpen.

this is my favourit lens.
i have this lens, but 50mm f/1.4G.

good job @gringalicious
like your post.
and thanks for sharing.

Great comment, thanks @baimatjeh81!

Seriously, can we all OD on Vitamin C?

Oh, for the first car I'd recommend a Ford Pinto Wagon. It's fuel efficient, and it has plenty of room for some lucky guy's mullet and empty Bud Light cans.

that made me laugh out loud. Unfortunately, I had a friend that had a pinto, it wasn't a good thing

Haha, I will only go for this plan if it comes in a shade of bright hot pink and you agree to put a liftkit on it. Thanks @drobinson!

@noboxes..."friend"? Is this one of those "asking for a friend.." type deals? Actually, I think my day had a Pinto.. he hated it.

@gringalicious, oh yes! It's game on! @rigaronib can hook you up with a sick paint job.

Wow. Thats very sweet to celebrate the valentines

ya terimakasih atas resepnya kawan.

good foods with best photography

This looks soooo TASTY, I am reading this whilst eating a boring apple...(Mehhh) You give me food envy everytime @gringalicious good job! And love the logo :)

it looks great :)
I wanted to eat amazing chocolate the other day. and the best waffle came to mind.
my husband took me to a dessert. There were too many chocolates on the waffle I ate. and I ate it all, I do not have to move as results already. I slept and slept :DD:

Haha, well I do love chocolate too @artizm!

They look amazing. Although they're making me sad now. Its near impossible to find really good waffles here in Ireland (its more an American thing). Last time I was in NY I had some of the best waffles ever so I may have to give these a try now and see how they compare ;)

so sorry for making you sad. tell me, what dish can I prepare that would make one in Ireland inspired? I hope to go to New York before 2018 is over, perhaps in the fall. Great commenting @davekavanagh, thanks so much for your continued support. Oh, by the way, I'll be in San Diego next week, so excited!

thanks so much for the comment @becomingpaloma

Looking very deliciuous

Ok, that mousse moose cake? So North Idaho! I love it! It's been ages since I've had Nutella in the house (darn allergies again!) but that looks just scrumptious! On the other hand, I made a decent vanilla cake for my son's birthday last week with cooked frosting.

It was just a single layer, but it happened to be gluten free and egg free, but had a pretty nice texture and even the picky hubby liked it, so yay me! We should celebrate the little things, right?

And those leggings? I'm just thinking of the wind flapping those little balloony parts around. I was giggling thinking about it, but seriously, that would be just too much sensory input for me right there! Lol!

Anyway, thanks again for an entertaining post and for making crave waffles! Which reminds me, now that our kitchen is almost done ( no counters yet, but we'll get there soon!) I need to pick up a good waffle iron. Do you like yours enough to recommend it?

actually, I do like my waffle maker, bought at Costco, not so sure they have it right now. Hope to see you at the meetup

i really really want them NOW. Thank you for sharing your waffles with me - all the best from cold austria

Mixture of all healthy items :)
Looking freaking yummy.
