12 Mar variety [10/52]
Still feeling under the weather, today rolled around and found me without a shot for this week’s prompt.
A trip to the donut shop solved that problem :)
Now that’s my kind of variety (a fact my ever expanding ass can attest to).
My Husband, on hearing my plan, said “you’re going to go buy a dozen donuts just so you can take a picture of them?” (I mean seriously, where has this man been for the past 16 months???) to which I simply replied, “yes”.
He thought it was a stupid idea.
At this moment, right now, there are five donuts left in that box.
And I only had one.
Yeah, what a stupid idea :)

Posted at 09:20h, 13 MarchSo what’s up with you still being sick? You’re supposed to be better by now…. Those donuts are fabulous and it’s a great shot. Is that actually a flower shaped jelly donut? I want.
janice
Posted at 12:11h, 13 MarchI know, right? I’m pretty fed up!
Yep, flower shaped. That was the one I ate :)

Posted at 09:50h, 13 Marchi can’t remember the last time i had a donut like that — there are too many food rules in life, aren’t there? i think i’m going to run right out and get a dozen, and go wild! now, where to hide them from my teenagers?
janice
Posted at 12:12h, 13 MarchRules are made to be broken!

Posted at 10:30h, 13 MarchI can’t tell you the last time I had a doughnut…I am back on my strict diabetic diet. So, I just licked my screen. :) Damn you and your good shots! LOL

Posted at 14:06h, 13 MarchDonuts clear all manner of ailment. It’s true. I read it in a fortune cookie once. Also, I think those last five are definitely yours – dibs them quick! Hope next week finds you feeling better!
janice
Posted at 20:47h, 13 MarchSo I should eat more? LOL ;)
Thanks chick. I hope so too!

Posted at 20:30h, 13 MarchOh, I wish I had thought of doing this with jewelry! Because if it’s okay to buy a dozen for photography, I’m there.
janice
Posted at 20:47h, 13 MarchROFL!!! why didn’t I think of that angle?!

Posted at 23:21h, 13 Marchoh, I hate that you’re sick! I hope it’s not pneumonia. But I had to comment about your husband’s “stupid idea” comment … I totally cracked up when I read that only 5 were left and you only ate one. That’s great! And “where has this man been for the past 16 months?” – my husband would totally believe that I’d do something like that. So it cracks me up that you shared that whole dialog. I love it! Feel better and eat another donut.
janice
Posted at 23:45h, 13 MarchI know, right? I do it all the time! LOL!
Silly men :)

Posted at 11:33h, 14 MarchOh, Jan, I love your idea for Variety! I’ve bought flowers but never donuts. I almost wish I didn’t have this knowledge now.
I’m trying to get caught up on blogs and Flickr after being gone for 4 days.
Hope you are feeling better!

Posted at 17:04h, 14 MarchWelcome back! Just in time to be corrupted by donuts ;)

Posted at 13:58h, 14 Marchi bought a cute little barrel of gumballs yesterday in the Easter candy isle at Wal-Mart. My husband and my son keep asking me if I took my picture yet, so they could open it. I said NO. Don’t touch it yet! I missed last week, just too busy and tired, but looking forward to this week.
janice
Posted at 17:05h, 14 MarchI SO want a gumball machine :)
Too funny, wanting to know if they can touch it yet. I get that a lot around here too!

Posted at 17:05h, 14 MarchI’m sorry you’re still feeling bad, but what a fabulous photo and perfect for the prompt! And it’s reassuring that even your husband doesn’t understand the photography thing!
janice
Posted at 17:11h, 14 MarchPart of me suspects he just didn’t want to drive to the donut shop ;)
