I drilled a hole in a slightly chipped tea cup so I could plant an African violet. The hole provides needed drainage.
This tree in my garden is lite at night. This was shot just after a snow storm using my 18-200 lens at 90mm, f5.6 2 secs from a tripod compensated down by 2/3 stops. ISO 500 Shot in raw with a little color and exposure tweaking. Not sure what else I should have done.
I was really excited to make the thin mints recipe by honeysuckle catering since it didn't contain partially hydrogenated oils like the real ones. However, I didn't end up liking the recipe. Here were my main 2 issues: 1. Bittersweet chocolate was not nearly sweet enough to coat these cookies. This is the main reason why I didn't like them 2. 1/4 inch is too thick to slice them. I started out slicing them 1/4 inch thick, but realized that is about double the thickness of regular Girl Scout cookies, so I started doing the rest 1/8 inch. They were better & crisp all the way through. Overall I think it's worth it to pay $4 for the box of thin mints from the Girl Scouts. These are just not the same :(
