Yeah, I think a garnish would be a good idea. Anything to show that it’s not a bowl of dirty dish water!

Thank you Helen. The photos may not show it but I’m always a teensy bit afraid too. I haven’t gotten to a point where I’m consistent. My persformance seems unpredictable and depends a lot on my mental state. I have good days and off days and never really can tell what kind of day it’s going to be until I’m in the middle of a match.

Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Regarding the rollers- what sort of rollers? Hot rollers? “Loose waves” are what I’d love but can’t seem to accomplish. Is your hair dry by the morning when you put it up damp at night?

“cat herder” he he!!!

Thanks Katie. Appreciate the suggestions and will give them a try next time I make that soup. Maybe it won’t look like rancid lake water.

What a fun post! Despite living with 60+ women in college, I am yet to learn how to curl my hair, apply eyeliner and/or blush, and walk gracefully in heels. 😉

Loved the new about me. So easy and fun to read. In your first picture I could hear you saying, “Hi, I’m Jenn” Not that I really eat soup, but I think throwing in some kind of garnish really would help. Even if it’s a leaf off an inedible plant in your yard. Or maybe your pretty face getting ready to take a bite

Love the TKD photos! Second in sparring is awesome. Can I admit to you that sparring is not my friend? I feel all over the place and I still don’t have enough experience to be very good. Plus, I’m always a teensy bit afraid… but you look great!

I love chronic cheerleader, but in my house I am a professional cat herder!

I agree with Katie, put soup in a pretty bowl, add garnish and dress up the table close to the bowl before photographing the side or part of the bowl with the pretty table in the shot!

Congrats on your wins!

As for hair curling, haven’t figured that one out either. What works for me, is to wash the night before, wad up in a pony tail/bun, and early on Sunday morning, while hair is still a bit damp, take down and put in the rollers. Either right before leaving for church, or on the ride there, hair is usually curled and I can remove the rollers, hair usually falls into loose waves, with minimal hairspray/fuss by me once I get to church and run to the bath room to straighten out the waves and make it all look presentable. I always keep a pretty clip in my purse though for those days, that nothing I do, and by no effort I can possible muster, my hair won’t fix.

Hope that helps!
