This year, I’ve decided to challenge myself to a photo a day in 2012. I’m doing this to teach myself some discipline and also to show my camera a little love. There will be photos of my day-to-day, food, and anything else that catches my eye–unstyled and minimally processed. My life is pretty quiet, but I like it that way. I’ll be posting these snapshots weekly. I hope you enjoy this project!
1.1.2012: On the first day of this year I made a spicy tomato and chickpea soup. These are the chickpea rejects.
1.2.2012: Laundry Day. A shirt drying on the indoor clothesline.
1.3.2012: Most of our meals begin with garlic and onions.
1.4.2012: Tea with honey in the morning.
1.5.2012: Super messy countertop after photographing ice cream for the blog.
1.6.2012: Segmenting a grapefruit for breakfast.
1.7.2012: Painting my nails and having a gin+tonic with cucumber and lime.

I’ve heard of other people doing this project before. I’ve always thought it sounded kind of daunting. Your pictures look great! What a fun project to share on your blog. I like your idea of doing a weekly recap.
