If You Give a Momblogger a Digital Camera: A Study in Black and White

[Yes, I am STILL Soliciting Comments for Charity:  Okay, so I'm BLOGGING OUT HUNGER and totally willing to beg for someone
else's food, this week – I know I'm no Dooce, but won't you consider
helping reach my goal of 300 comments, for charity, even for a Dork,
like me?]

———————————————————————-

It finally started to snow here in Jersey, just the other day — I know, my Seattle and Midwest friends have plenty that they are probably more than willing to share, even — and, since Santa Claus didn't bring me the really cool camera I've been wanting (honestly, I was happy he remembered the kids) look what I did with a little Envy:

Cabin-fever

Cabin Fever:  On the first day of Christmas vacation, it started to really snow and
Thing Two thought it sucked that it happened, smack dab in the middle of her recovery and I (seeing as, I am the meanest mom in the world) wouldn't let her go outside…dammit!

Garden-fairy
 
Garden Fairy:  As she screams, "It's frickin' freezing out here, Mr. Bigglesworth!"

Pointer-dog

He's A Little Bit Pointer, Dog:  Pointing out the fact that he looks way better in the down vest, that my mother gave me last Christmas, than I do…dammit!

Smile-doofus-dog

Smile Doofus-Dog:  I swear, he's a REAL camera hound!

Worlds-largest-snowball

World's Largest Snowball:  Actually, it's snow-encrusted basketball…but, you won't tell anyone…right!?!?

Sit-doofus-sit

Sit Doofus, Sit:  He actually thinks Thing One's gonna throw it!?!?

Wii-love-the-snow

Wii Love the Snow…NOT:  Don't worry (The Boy announced he hates snow since, you know, we got the Wii) with the magic of Picnik.com, mommy can make it snow anytime, anywhere, too!

Imagine, what I could do with a REAL grown up camera!?!?

[shudder]

I blame Ashton Kutcher, who truly makes digital photography look cool (and pretty) even for a dork, like me.

[heavy sigh]

Ah well, thank goodness for Flickr!

This is where I pimp my stuff:  I run a column at the Imperfect Parent (I don't know how that happened, either) this month, I'm talking about the value of Mini-Sleepovers.  Oh, and fresh from the garden state, read how I'm raising teenagers with my eyes wide shut.  Also, do you hate food shopping?  EXCELLENT!  Me, too. But, I recently received an electronic grocery list organizer that is fun AND practical.  Want one?

    Great pictures. My exchange student from Brazil is just enchanted with snow.
    We’ve told her she can shovel all she wants. 🙂

    Oh I LOVE black and white photos. They’re so much more *entrancing*. One isn’t slapped in the face with objects, one has to decipher them.
    Bad mommy. Fairies in the snow.
    And yes, isn’t it strange how the Wii cures all ills?
