E is for

Eggs

G was such a sport for this photoshoot – I sent him out find me some roe. The yellow is whitefish roe in its natural state and the red is whitefish roe colored with beets and saffron. YAY G! Otherwise, I’m just playing around with the incredible edible egg.

Thanks for all the well wishes. I’m still not eating much but I slept good last night and I haven’t puked in a while. My stomach is not completely back to normal and the cold I originally thought I was getting is still working its way through me. Tomorrow I’m back at my sister’s until Tuesday. This month I feel like I will barely be home – G’s traveling a lot which means I’m traveling a lot. I hate to sleep alone. I’m by myself all day long, mostly, and I just can’t stand to extend that to the nights. I need company. So I go to my sister’s. But in a couple of weeks G goes away again and my sister will be on vacation so I have to find somewhere else to stay. Luckily I’ve got great friends who are more than willing to take me in.

Have a great weekend!

  1. As always, your photos amaze me with their richness and creativity!

  2. I love all the eggs you show. Wish I lived closer so you could visit me. You could check airfare…I hear it’s pretty cheap to fly here at times;-)

  3. The photos of the eggs are beautiful, and I’m glad you’re not hurling. It really is going around all over the place, which so, so sucks.
    Get rest. Knit if you can.

  4. Beautiful! I had that stomach bug last weekend — it SUCKED. Continue to feel better 🙂

  5. I’ve been thinking about you ALL DAY!! I’m glad you’re feeling a little better. ; )
    Ann got me all worked up about Rhinebeck yesterday — I KNOW, it’s SEVEN MONTHS AWAY!! But I’m so ready to press “book it” — man, I’m so ready… I might have inadvertently pinched Margene’s Rhinebeck nerve, too. ; )
    Anyway, go stay with Ann in a couple weeks — nothing would make me happier. And even though it really isn’t about me, well, you must go… And at Jen’s, too? With that perfect little X of hers? Sweetheart, you do have some mighty fine friends…

  6. I wanna be like you (be as talented as you). Those pictures are great. I hope you continue to feel better.

  7. and you say you can’t cook – that looks like a fried egg to me!

  8. Beautiful photographs! Glad you’re feeling better.

  9. Great eggs. Glad you’re feeling better. (How’s that for short and sweet?)

  10. Amazing pictures. So beautiful and crisp.

  11. Mmm. Nothing like up-close photos of raw eggs and roe when you’ve been feeling pukey. heh
    Very cool “E”! 🙂

  12. WOW!!!!
    You’re such an amazing photographer.

  13. Wanna come to NC? You can stay with us in our semi-finished remodeled house! NC has beaches and mountains, you can’t beat it!

  14. Your photos are, as usual, stunning! This is fabulous. Hope you feel better soon….

  15. Wow. That’s a stunningly beautiful and elegant set you’ve shot there. Congrats.

  16. Love them!

  17. Those are beautiful photos (including the partial clapotis that’s the banner right now).
    I’m glad you’re feeling at least somewhat better!

  18. Glad you have your land legs back under you. Love the egg pics!

  19. you have an amazing eye…love your photos…what camera do you use?

  20. Hey, I don’t know what your plans are for the end of the month, but I’m going to be in Philly and have A LOT of free time. Would you care to meet me?

  21. you are a really good phototographer — love those shots of the roe and the cracked egg. 🙂

  22. Beautiful pictures! I love the play of colors and textures especially. What photo editing software do you use? (bows down to great photography skills and hopes to glean just a little from kick-ass software).

  23. beautiful. sending you healthy, peaceful thoughts and a big hug

  24. Wow…still not eating, but you managed to photograph whitefish roe? I think my stomach would have not been able to handle that. And I LIKE roe, but dude…it’s…fishy :-}
    Hang in there, baby!

  25. poor girl! puking is the worst thing ever. big phobia for me. i do admire you for taking pics of eggs while feeling sick though!

  26. Glad you are feeling better. I never knew eggs were so photogenic! Nice pictures:)

  27. By now I hope your feeling much better.
    I hope sometime when you’re down in Philly we could meet up for coffee or a yarn store crawl. I’d love to pick your brain about writing. I think it’d be easier for me to ask my inarticulate questions in person. 🙂

  28. Cara – I really hope that with a queasy stomach, those – very well photographed and visually appealing – eggs are not for you. lol

  29. Glad you are a bit better!!! We’ve been seeing so much stomach flu lately, loads of sick folks. I feel for you, chica. Hang in there…

  30. Your pictures are amazing!

  31. Hi Cara! Glad you’re feeling a bit better! Wow, your photos are amazing…as usual ; )

  32. Awesome “E”! I would never have thought of the roe!
