Superhero Challenge: Kitchen Counter

So, over at Shutter Sisters today, the challenge is to capture ordinary magic on the kitchen countertop, a reminder that to take great photos we don't have to be off on adventures traveling the world.

The picture above I love because that's our you-pick veggies and cheesy bread that Dave and I made together (from scratch! no recipe!), which turned out mmmm-azing.

And then one I took this morning after breakfast:

Bella never wakes up before 10am, and there it was 8am and I rolled over to find her having a chat with her hands. She must have known it was a sunny day and we were missing the great morning light, so we got up and made Amish Baked Oatmeal (like a cookie! for breakfast!). As I was grating the nutmeg it struck me how gorgeous it would be in the light (the look of fresh nutmeg is almost as intriguing as the taste). So there you have it. I am officially a superhero today.
