tutti-frutti by summerfield

tutti-frutti

channeled my inner carmen miranda with lots of fruits and veggies and fruit juices. fail! i got air instead.

i read somewhere that if you eat your daily five servings of fruits and veggies, you not only eat healthy but your skin develops a glow that others find sexy and appealing? but probably not when you eat a lot of beans! tee-hee!

for the five plus two's "food" theme this week. well, at least i didn't make good on my threat that i'd be posting food self-portraits for the rest of the week. yup! could be worse!

PS: this is an excellent chance for those of you who dislike self portraits. five plus two has exciting themes every week and everyone is invited to join in. i didn't like being in front of the camera before, i still don't, but i'm now more comfortable with self-portraits and there has to be a theme to doing it. see five plus two's album here: http://365project.org/fiveplustwo/365

PSS: thank you for your kind visits and comments; they are genuinely appreciated.
