16 oz chicken broth
4 Kaffir Lime Leaves
1/2 inch chunk of galangal, sliced into thin slices
1 stalk of lemon grass (cut diagonally up till the purple starts to disappear)
1 pound of chicken (cut up into bite size)
1 cup of snap peas
1 can straw mushrooms (unless you can find fresh! If you can use them!)
1 bunch of cilantro, cut up
1 Japanese eggplant - sliced thin
1/2 cup of coconut milk (full fat from the can)

In a large pot combine chicken broth & curry paste - add lemongrass, lime leaves & galangal simmer for about 3 -5 minutes.
Add chicken Cook for 10 minutes covered.
Add peas, eggplant, cilantro & mushrooms.
Cook for another 5-10 minutes (or till peas are the texture you want)

Day 112 - Dried Prosciutto

My favorite new snack.

Preheat oven to 200
Place thin slices of prosciutto on aluminum foil and bake for 20-30 minutes or until desired crispiness.
Store in a zip-lock bag, unless you are like me and eat it all in one sitting.

(Yes, as a matter of fact it was a slow picture day! ;)

Project 365

Am I insane? Have I lost my mind? After thinking long and hard about it (OK, really I only thought about it for about 12 hours) I just committed to doing a photo a day for a year - a 365 'they' call it. This is going to be SUPER HARD for me. Not the photo part, but the editing part. I mean you guys KNOW how far behind I am. A photo a day - that doesn't sound like much, but in reality, who are we kidding? Anyway I'm going to TRY to post each day, but there will be times I might be MIA for a couple of days, just bear with me and I will catch up.

One of my goals throughout this 365 is to be able to shoot anything I want to in manual. The next is to have fun capturing this next crazy year of our life. In the next 365 you will see: at least 2 more countries, a HS graduation, an international move to most likely 2 different states, the heartbreak of a mom as she sends her first born off to college and so much more....

Please make sure you cheer me on after all I am a "Words of Affirmation" girl. :o)
