PhotoHunt: Skinny

Today's theme for PhotoHunt is skinny. As soon as I saw it, I knew I had just the photos...

This is my husband way back when. This was before we met and if I were to see this photo today without knowing it was him, I would never recognize him.

Updated to clarify my comments: My remarks about my husband's photo are not meant in a mean or derogatory in any way. He looks a LOT different in many ways. Even if he was still this skinny (he's not fat now...just not THIS skinny), I don't think he would look similar to this old photo.

And here's me a long time ago too. This photo was taken around 1993 when I was about 19. It was when I was at my lowest weight because I had just recently dropped out of college (yes, I'm a dropout) and left ROTC behind. ROTC was the reason I was thin. They thought I was 15 pounds overweight and required me to workout 5 days a week instead of the normally required 3 days per week. Despite all the exercise, I didn't drop a single pound but I did get smaller.

PhotoHunt: Delicious

I totally forgot about PhotoHunt. This week's theme is "Delicious" and I have just the photo for that. I made these Chocolate Brownie Waffles from a recipe that came with my new waffle iron I got for Christmas. They are chocolate and have chocolate chips in them. The recipe said to serve them topped with chocolate syrup and whipped cream. They were pretty delicious though I actually preferred them room temperature as a hand-held snack.

PhotoHunt: Messy

This week's photo hunt topic is messy. I've been going through some old photos and came across a perfect one for it. Here's Mika and Sammy at ages 4 and 2 painting with lovely purple and green fingerpaint. It was definitely messy!

PhotoHunt: Light

I think memes are lots of fun so I went in search of one for Saturday and found PhotoHunt. Since I like blogs with lots of photos, this one just seemed like a perfect one to participate in. You simply post a photo that represents the theme; this week's theme is "light."

These photos were taken at the Pacific Science Center in Seattle. What a fun place!

This beautiful butterfly does not weigh much...it is rather light.

This Goliath Beetle is the least light bug there is...1/4 pound!
