Foto Friday - Breakfast


This week's Foto Friday challenge was breakfast. I knew this one was going to be tough because I eat breakfast with Emma, so trying to set up a shot with an almost two year old to help was going to be a challenge! The weather has been miserable this week, so we have been having my favourite miserable weather breakfast, porridge and brown sugar. I don't normally sprinkle the sugar in the shape of a heart, but then I don't normally take a photo of my breakfast either!

My camera is useless at indoor photos, so I put a tea towel down by the patio door in the kitchen so I could make use of the natural light. I could see Emma watching, so I quickly dumped the bowl of porridge down on the towel and grabbed the camera in the hope I could take one picture before the toddler moved in. She was quicker than me, so her hand is in the photo (though I actually like it better that way)! All hope of arty photos went out the window as Goldilocks declared the porridge to be "just right" and tucked in...

Ahhh...I like the sugar heart. I will have to do that on my kids oatmeal. They would like that. My kids eat oatmeal often and love it too. Cute pictures....I like the little fingers :)

I'm glad your little helper got in the action with you on these pictures. They are sure cute.

I like the little hand in the picture. The heart was a nice touch.

How cute! I'm going to have to make a heart or other shape from my children sometime! :)
