Been quiet over here…hiding out and being domesticated as the clock ticks down to my first day of classes.
And baking. There has been some baking.
Courtesy of Joy the Baker, deep dark mocha cupcakes with coffee buttercream frosting. Mmmmmm. If you haven’t subscribed to ENJOY!, you really, really should. Surprises like that in the mail are way more awesome than bills and store circulars.
And I solved the problem of how to safely transport one cupcake:
Just put a takeout tub lid on the counter, throw a cupcake on the lid, and then snap the tub over it. Easy!
And I am loving how photo editing is coming down to the level of effort I want to expend doing it! I have an amazing camera but I think I sometimes avoid using it because I am lazy about editing photos. And I really love Instagram with all of the cool filters and stuff! But I don’t love the quality of the pictures when I print them…they’re a little grainy. Conundrum!
SOLVED!
Have you tried PicMonkey yet? It’s free!
Yes, I know I could do most of this stuff in Photoshop…but it is so tedious and time-consuming. NOT relaxing!
I played around with PicMonkey and some photos from Puerto Rico and hey! Way cooler than Instagram! See!?!
So much faster than Photoshop! The quality of this photo is so much better than those grainy Instagram photos in the beginning of the post.
LOVE! And now I can go back to loving my “real” camera.
