Trip to Genoa, Nevada

This is about a week late, but I went to Genoa, NV with Gina and Erin last weekend for the "Candy Festival". I failed to see that much candy, but there was plenty of festival.

And plenty of photos...

Making Windows 7 Purrrty

For quite some time now I've wanted some sort of relaxing Windows 7 theme. Maybe one with cats?

But alas, while there is no end to the cat photos online, I was not able to find a themepack that I was comfortable applying to my Windows 7. So I gathered some photos from Google Images. Only one of the photos belongs to me (I didn't want Tilly to be jealous of all the other cats on my laptop), but I apologize because I didn't keep track of the sources for all the image I incorporated. Luckily, I'm just giving this away, and not selling it, so it shouldn't be an issue. I also managed to change my login screen because the default blue-wavy-image drives me nuts. Images below.

Spring Break Visit to Reno, NV

I took a trip to Reno over spring break to get an idea of what the city is like. I may potentially have a job in that area after I graduate. I'm not going to go into detail about my thoughts on such a move, but I did take a couple pictures on the way back because it was snowing around Truckee.

Food: Homemade Potstickers

A couple weeks ago, after deciding that food can be art, too, I posted several meals that had been long overdue. One of them was about potstickers for which I could not take credit. I can, however, take credit for these potstickers.

I've Decided that Food is Art

I've been thinking. I have two voices on the internet (well, two that I care about, anyway); I've got this blog, WeberShots, and I've got Thoughts (of a 20-something-year-old engineer). The tag-line for WeberShots, up until this point, has been "A blog of just about anything related to WeberShots or photography." Admittedly, I've been fairly sparse in my postings on either of those two topics.

I excuse myself because I'm a college student, and even if its a year later before I do, I will eventually post on here again. On the flipside, Thoughts has had many a post about various food ventures for this college undergrad, including breaded fish, grape pie, rice-noodle potstickers, pizza-dillas, and banana cinnamon buttermilk pancakes. I'm not saying they don't belong on that blog, but I do want to switch things up for a bit. WeberShots has been emptier not because I've given up photography altogether, but because it has taken a different role in my life as of late.

So I'm going to liven up my WeberShots blog a bit with another form of art: food photography. I'm not going for amazing here, I'm just indulging my tendency to be a foodie. Here are some food items I've failed to post for quite some time, even in my Thoughts. They won't include recipes at this point, but I wanted to share some photos.
