I've been craving peanut butter since the first day word of the salmonella scare broke out. I kind of obsessed about eating peanut butter, or not eating peanut butter, and how much peanut butter I had really been eating before we all found out it may be dangerous to do so.
Thing is, I still haven't eaten any peanut butter. It's probably been a few months. Do I miss peanut butter? Sure. Would I still be eating it even if it hadn't made the news? Probably. Could I live without peanut butter? Most likely. Do I want to? Not really. Would I have thought about peanut butter this much if it wouldn't have been on the news? Absolutely not.
I recently got a new camera and I had been dying to try it out. I took it with me to NYC, but really had a hard time finding organic photographs out of the numerous museum exhibits I visited. One of my best friends, Terra, asked me to take a few shots of her, so her clients actually know what she looks like. I quickly agreed and off to a studio in Rockville we went (Conor too!!). I soon realized, as we were bouncing around the studio, listening to loud music, laughing at silliness, and taking fantastic photographs (more on her end... but still), I realized that this was really what I had been craving. This camera was my peanut butter. I lived without it for so long that once I had a taste of it, I realized what I had been missing.
Let's just hope I don't get sick from it...
