Photo Dump: iPhone Shots That Didn’t (Originally) Make the Cut

Hey, hey!

So, I’ve seen other bloggers do these “behind the scenes” and photo blooper posts lately, and since I don’t feel like blogging about anything that requires too much brainpower today, I figured it was the perfect time to do one myself. These photos haven’t made it into blog posts (well…until now!) for one reason or another. Many of them just didn’t make the cut because too much else was going on that day or week, and a few are a tad embarrassing. Here we go!

Harley-bread risingWhen I was recently baking bread I put it outside under the hot sun to rise, and Harley would not leave it alone. She kept sniffing it and I didn’t trust her alone with my rising yeast!

PB & J Greek yogurtAnyone else try this TJ’s peanut butter & jelly Greek yogurt? I can’t really hate on anything PB&J, and like it with sliced banana.

Bird in kitchen

Look closely… It’s hard to see but there’s a bird perched on my wine glass wall! Since there are a lot of birds around in my backyard and I leave my sliding glass door open a lot so that Harley can go in and out, a bird has made its way into my kitchen a few times since we’ve moved in.

In this particular instance, I heard Harley barking and came in the room to find a bird perched on my ceiling fan and my pup patiently sitting as if she was about to get a treat. It took awhile for him to safely find his way out as I squealed at him flying around!

dipped ice cream cone

I kept seeing chocolate dipped ice cream cones around and decided to try one. Verdict? Yum!

dog park buddies

I caught this funny pic at the dog beach recently as Harley and her new buddy were running around like maniacs together.

Joshua Tree outtake

This one was taken during our trip to Joshua Tree Park. I asked my hubby to take photos of me doing yoga poses, and I didn’t know until later that he also took these very zoomed in photos of me staring off into the park looking deep in thought. Ha!

flowers on hiking trail

Just some random pretty flowers on a recent hike.

Night at LIV

This photo makes me laugh so much: my best friend Meg and me in Miami last month, clearly having a fun time.

Fun fact: I woke up the next morning still in this dress, with all of my makeup and jewelry on (which has not happened in years and years!). I also had dollar bills in my pockets and down my bra because the people at the table next to us kept throwing handfuls of money into the air. Oh bachelorette party wildness! Slightly embarrassing, but too funny not to share. 🙂

travel meals

Snapped this shot of the yummy eats I packed when I was traveling all day recently. Justin’s almond butter is so good, but these little packets are so damn hard to eat out of – especially with hard pretzels while on a plane!

remodeled bathroom

Recently we revamped one of our bathrooms, replacing the toilet, over-the-toilet storage thing, and repainting it what turned out to be a bright blue. However, it’s hard to make a small bathroom photo look nice so it didn’t make the cut in my weekend recap when we did the work.

pepper heart

Found this heart-shaped gem in the inside of a bell pepper while dinner prepping one night. Hey little guy!

bowl of fruit with harley

A delicious bowl of fruit, with a very nosey puppy nearby!

Tell me… Are you a fan of Justin’s nut butter packs? Dog owners, does your pooch love to photobomb your shots? Ever eat a dipped ice cream cone?

    My cats are exactly the same when I put bread outside to rise. They think it is some kind of toy.

      Haha, that’s funny… Harley is very sensitive to any changes in her surroundings, so I think she was just intrigued by something new outside!

    After reading about your love for Justins nut butter I finally broke down and bought some and Yes they are delicious. I Love them I just hate paying for indvidual items. I havent had a dipped cone in years they are ok but not what I would order If I went to an ice cream store. My dog doesnt photo bomb much but she is so hard to get a good photo of.

      I know what you mean – Justin’s also sells big jars too, but they aren’t sold everywhere (and they aren’t cheap, but they’re worth the splurge sometimes in my opinion!).

    Always freaks me out when I see those baby bell peppers inside a bigger bell pepper! It’s like an alien growing inside!

    I love those Justin’s packets, but yes, they ARE hard to eat out of! I just mainly use them when we’re traveling. Sometimes I keep a few in my purse for snacks, and I do make sure The Hus has some in his car and at work – along with some ww crackers – to snack on if his sugar gets too low. I love the maple one!

      Agreed, I use those packets most when I’m traveling too. They are nice to stash around in the car and stuff too! At home I totally just buy the big Justin’s jars and then I don’t have to deal with the hassle of trying to get the nut butter out of the individual packet. Ha!

    Dipped Ice Cream Cone is the ONLY thing I have ever eaten at Dairy Queen before in my life – and that was when I was 14 years old! OMFG SOOOOOOO LONG AGO, craziness!!!!!

    I need to try and make my own version! Since I got the ice cream making down, Now I just need to figure out a chocolate “crust” of sorts!! 😀 The wheels are a turning!

      What do you make, banana “nice” cream or do you use an actual ice cream maker?? I’ve been wanting to get one of those to experiment with!

We’ll be kicking off our week of family birthdays with my wonderful husband turning the big 4-0! 

Something that intrigued me about Adam when I met him 20 years ago was that he seemed serious & quiet, but then would unexpectedly say something super witty or do something silly that cracked me up… & his serious-with-a-side-of-goofball personality remains true to this day (case in point: this video montage 😂)

After all, they say to marry the one who makes you laugh — and I, for one, highly recommend it❣️ Here’s to hoping the next 40 years are full of many more amazing adventures & accomplishments!

1️⃣ fun-filled day in Istanbul! 📍

Our favorite parts:

⭐️ Visiting the beautiful Blue Mosque
⭐️ Exploring the historic district and trying the street food (Why is the ice cream so.. sticky?!🍦) 
⭐️ Venturing through the hectic Grand Bazaar 
⭐️ A delicious dinner @amedroscafe 
⭐️ Making friends with stray cats.. so many friendly cats! 🐈 As a huge animal lover, I adore that the city seems to take good care of its strays.. This is the first place I’ve ever been where they have vending machines to buy food for stray animals!

When I was newly pregnant with Camryn before we knew her gender, I had a vivid dream that I was picnicking with a little blonde girl in front of the Eiffel Tower. I woke up and told my husband, “Guess what? We’re having a girl!”

We got Camryn a passport at 5 months old with the idea that we’d visit Paris later that year and turn my literal dream into a reality. But then, COVID hit a few weeks later.

By the time we’d be comfortable traveling to Europe, we instead were selling our house in New England and traveling around the U.S. full-time.

We had adventures in plenty of other amazing places, but Paris remained a bucket list item.

…until now! Our picnic in Paris as a family of three may have happened a few years later than planned, but it was a bucket list item that was exactly how I’d pictured, perhaps even better.

It was such a magical evening staring at the Eiffel Tower, sipping champagne, and noshing on local food that we’d nabbed at shops around town ✨🥂

— all the while, laughing & soaking up the night with our wonderful little girl. 💗

Do you remember when you truly realized that the world is wide and you’ve only experienced a speck of it? 🌎

For me, it was the eye-opening opportunity of a college study abroad program in amazing Sicily. I fell in love with Italy, and the experience made me realize that I wanted to prioritize traveling and living in different places when I became a “real adult” (or in other words, when I graduated the following year). 

Getting to return to the charming town of Taormina nearly two decades later with my family was a dream. 

I returned to Sicily in a different phase of life: Older — I’ve almost doubled in age! Wiser. A mom. A wife. 

Yet, still wide-eyed, always up for an adventure, and filled with wonder at the beauty of this world. 

Different, but the same. 

Taormina is still stunning, bustling with more tourists and more fame than I remembered thanks to things like “White Lotus” and Dolce & Gabbana fashion shows (one was happening while we were in town). 

And so, I found Taormina herself to also be different, but the same — and definitely still a magical place ✨
