Another week of photos for your viewing pleasure.  I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed each moment.

Day 307 – May 9, 2015: I had so much fun trying out my new Sigma 150-500mm lens in the park tonight. My favourite photo of the evening goes to these two duck butts! Seriously, how cute are they?

Day 308 – May 10, 2015: After a hard day’s work in the garden we enjoyed an evening mojito. I can’t wait until I can use fresh mint from the garden!

Day 309 – May 11, 2015: After a less then lovely trip to Ikea, Mr. MPB helped me start putting together my little home office. A touch of girly pink put a smile on my face.

Day 310 – May 12, 2015: After my evening run I couldn’t help but smile at our 4 little zucchini plants. The ones we planted from seeds should start popping up in a few weeks.

Day 312 – May 14, 2015: Tonight I decided to play with my macro lens when I noticed our little owls from Machu Picchu. Our hotel gave us each an owl figurine to watch over us for our visit and we’ve kept them sitting on a shelf in our living room ever since. They make me reminisce and smile whenever I notice them.

Day 313 – May 15, 2015: We spent the evening with friends which means I spent the evening with their puppy dog sitting right next to me. Good food, great friends and a snuggly dog always makes me happy!

I’ve fallen behind on the blog awards, so today I thought I’d catch up on a few. So I’m combining nomination from two awesome bloggers into one post.

My Brain’s Escape and My Pink Champagne Life both nominated me the Versatile Blogger Award. I adore both of these blogs. My Brain’s Escape might be one of the most supportive individuals I have ever met – she encourages me and loves me through everything. While we have never met in person, I feel like we’d be best friends if we lived in the same city. My Pin Champagne Life is a more recent blog to me that I fall in love just a little bit more with her every time she posts. She is an amazing women who is doing amazing things!

The rules of the award are pretty simple:

  1. Thank the person who nominated you for this award – Done
  2. Include a link to their blog – Done
  3. Nominate 15 blogs that you’ve recently discovered, or follow regularly
  4. Share 7 facts about yourself

 Seven Facts:

  1. Recently The Common Ostrich shared this quote with me, and I think it is absolutely beautiful:

“I believe that in the same way we need species diversity to ensure that the planet can go on, so we need this diversity of affection and diversity of family in order to strengthen the ecosphere of kindness.” – Andrew Solomon

  1. I wear glasses. Without them I’d probably walk into walls and other random things.
  2. My favourite cheese is Brie (and now I think I need to go get some brie to bake and enjoy this evening).
  3. My first job ever in my life was at a shoe store. This is when my shoe addiction and dislike of other people’s feet both started. Based on this quick scan of my happy photos, I really do like shoes!

     

  4. I have a weird love for clocks. Not watches though just clocks that hang on the wall. The clocks in our house are all unique and I love them.
  5. One of my all-time favourite TED talks is:

 

7. I do not drink coffee, and in fact have never had a full cup of coffee in my life. Instead I have a slight addiction to non-fat, extra hot, chai tea lattes.
