Asana, according to Wikipedia, is a body position, typically associated with the practice of Yoga, intended primarily to restore and maintain a practitioner's well-being, improve the body's flexibility and vitality, and promote the ability to remain in seated meditation for extended periods
. Saturday, I was very excited to get my (gently used) book of Asanas so I could begin reviewing the form on my current poses and learn new ones. In fact I should probably focus more on Asanas to vent some of the frustration I built up from working with my Nikonosaurus (point and shoot camera). Grrrrr.....No matter what setting I choose for white balance the photos come out blue, pink or yellow. Earlier I was shooting with natural light and was able to change the aperture to around f/2 which gave fairly nice depth of field but the camera automatically focused on the background rather than my soup. I did order a Lowel Ego light so I am anxiously awaiting that. Hopefully it helps

Sunday, my dear husband went fishing with his dad and came home with quite a catch! We decided to make fish tacos and lo and behold I had just bought fish taco seasoning earlier that day. I mixed half a packet with ¼ cup of milk and marinated it for about an hour. I, personally, am not a huge fan of cabbage on my fish tacos. I love tomato, lettuce, cilantro and hummus. It came out as more of a fish quesadilla but I figured it would taste just as good and I was right.
