Oh, Nuts!

Okay, the title is a bit of a stretch to connect the picture above with any sort of subject that I'm going to write about today. This picture is the first of what will be a series of six, using these great cups we picked up at Cost Plus World Market. Each is a different color, they have this nifty stainless steel caddy that carries them all around, and they've been begging me to do something creative with them since the moment they came home. This series is a self-assignment to keep the creative juices flowing, and to keep me looking for color-coordinated foods...

In business news, it's been a very slow week for me. I've been sick most of the week, and between work and trying to recover from a nasty flu, there simply hasn't been much photography going on.

One important breakthrough, I've reached an agreement with my landlord to sign the paperwork so I can file for my business license with the city. I also found out there's a possibility that as a disabled veteran, my license fees may be waived. Not a huge cost savings, only $85 or so, but every little bit helps.

And thanks to all those who have been leaving such great supportive and informative comments! Your words of encouragement are greatly motivating to me, and some of the resources you've pointed me towards have been invaluable.

Gotta go. More to come soon.
