C2k “Cool Zone”FreeRice M&M’s The Big Nekkid

1.  Test your knowledge of vocabulary and feed the hungry.  For each word you get right, they donate 20 grains of rice through the UN World Food Program to help end hunger at this site Free Rice

2.  Send a gift of chocolate and a little phrase at My M&M’s.

3.  I ran across this band on myspace The Big Nekkid.  “The Big Nekkid fills that space somewhere in between the hallowed sound of The Allman Brothers Band and the drive of Pearl Jam.”

Thanks for viewing..

Until Next Time..

Spotlight Photographer of the Week

Week 6:  West Virginia

amandareed.jpg

My name is: Amanda Reed

Right now I’m sitting: in my office

My family includes: My husband of almost ten years Gale, my daughter Lydia and my son Gale Reed III

What inspires me is: God’s creation. Everyday I just pray that he would give me his vision as I do my part to capture the beauty he has put into every living thing.

The photographer who most inspires me would be: Seniors make up the biggest percent of my market; so I look to Teri Fode for inspiration as well as Becker and my friend Shelley of As I See It Photography in Canada.

When hanging out online you will usually find me: myspace, its the best networking tool I have found.

The first thing I crave in the morning is: A diet Pepsi

Don’t tell anyone that I love: New Kids on the Block…have you heard about the reunion tour? My best friend of 24 years recently admitted that she lifted my NKOTB cassette when were ten. The horror.  

To me “beautiful” is: my children and seeing the world through their eyes. Everything is new again.  

This year’s purchases MUST include: A speedlight, a new monitor, big screen for proofing, the list just goes on.

My guilty pleasure is: getting my hair done….yea I know its crazy but I usually spend my extra cash on my kids, like they need anything else.  So when I actually do something for me I do feel a little guilty.

If I had $500 to spend on myself today, I would buy: I need a vacation so I would most likely deposit it on a reservation at the beach.

I think my best feature: my eyes

I am addicted to: Everyone in my family knows I have a sock fetish. Warm, fuzzy, patterned as long as it’s socks. At Christmas Im an easy buy, when all else fails get socks.

Askinosie Chocolate  Alienware  Waterford

 1.  A local MO lawyer who loves chocolate; founder of Askinosie Chocolate, makes chocolate yum yums and 10% of the funds go to farmers who supply the beans. 

2.  Are you a gamer?  Check this wrap-around 2880 X 900 widescreen monitor.  It’s only the protocol and won’t be out until mid year 2008 by Alienware.

3.  Don’t forget Mother’s Day.  Get her a glass paperweight from Waterford for her to always remember you while she’s at work. 

Until next time,
Your Adoring Blogger
