In the garage | Reedley, CA

April 25th, 2010

Antiques fascinate me. Who did they belong to? How did they use them? How much did they buy it for? Has it always been in my family? Trust me, I’ve got loads of questions.

Antiques fascinate me. Who did they belong to? How did they use them? How much did they buy it for? Has it always been in my family? Trust me, I’ve got loads of questions.

The other weekend my sister and I rummaged around my grandparents shed. Angie got some information from grandpa about some of the treasures we found. They may not be treasures to you, but they’re certainly treasures to us. For instance, there was a simple piece of wood hammered together forming a ‘t’ shape. Grandma told us that our Great Grandfather would sit on this stool every morning to milk the cow. Had we not known that, I’m certain at some point it would have become just another log on the fire.

Then there were the tools. Who knew that these specific tools were tailor made for a Model T. You couldn’t work on the car without them. And our family still has them?! But where’s the car?!!! I guess the tools lasted but the car didn’t. Ahh well, so is life. :)

Avery Island, LA | photography

September 19th, 2009

Yesterday Percy took me to the birthplace of Tabasco Sauce, Avery Island, LA. It’s very intriguing and fairly huge. We took a tour of the factory, learned about the farming of the peppers and how the farmers use “le petite baton rouge” or “the little red stick” to pick out the ripest, most juicy peppers. [...]

 

Yesterday Percy took me to the birthplace of Tabasco Sauce, Avery Island, LA. It’s very intriguing and fairly huge. We took a tour of the factory, learned about the farming of the peppers and how the farmers use “le petite baton rouge” or “the little red stick” to pick out the ripest, most juicy peppers. The peppers have to match the color of the stick or else they’re not picked.

Did you know that after the peppers have been picked, salted, and ground they are then put into barrels which are sealed with rock salt (all of which is mined on Avery Island) and fermented for three years! Then it’s churned in this huge thing for up to 28 days mixing with vinegar before it gets bottled. Amazing how this stuff is made.

Anyways, we toured the property as well and we saw alligators. I had nightmares last night. All things reptile creep me out. But it was fascinating.

An excellent date and very informative! Enjoy some of the pictures and pretend that you are there with Percy and I enjoying the humid, beautiful day.

Annie the Schnauzer Dog portraits | Reedley, CA

As some of you may not, and others of you might not, I just don’t like dogs.  In fact, the idea of ever owning a dog is completely foreign to me.  I’m not sure where my dislike for dogs came from.  My mom loves dogs, we had dogs growing up, I even loved my dog [...]

 

As some of you may not, and others of you might not, I just don’t like dogs.  In fact, the idea of ever owning a dog is completely foreign to me.  I’m not sure where my dislike for dogs came from.  My mom loves dogs, we had dogs growing up, I even loved my dog who I named Friskie… but at some point along the way (maybe it was when I was five and my grandparents German Shepherd bit the skin of Marisol’s forehead off) I stopped thinking they were cute.
I don’t like their smell, the wet nose, the licking, the shedding, the hair, when they shake after they got wet… oh the list can go on and on!

BUT, I got to shoot my friends dog for them on Saturday.  And surprise, surprise.  I liked the dog.  She didn’t lick me, she didn’t nudge me with her nose, she didn’t smell, she didn’t shed because she had hair, and she didn’t bark or lick herself inappropriately.  She was rather cute and I even pet her.  So maybe it was a breakthrough but the next dog can send me back to my normal self.

Anyhow, meet Annie.  She’s cute.
