The Return Of Food Porn: New Camera Edition

It was a semi lazy dinner night. I marinaded shaved steak in thai sweet chili sauce and cooked it with some sliced onion, and then placing my meet between two Hawaiian sweet buns with some pepper jack (though I laid out a spread of other cheeses for other flavour palates). I contemplated making some oven fries on the side, but opted for a salad instead:

Bought a mix of salads, chopped up some tomato, sliced an English cucumber, added some mediteranian vegetables some quinoa and a homemade honey sriracha dressing. I thought these would make a good couple of test subjects for my new Canon Rebel T7i (800D), tested on the built in food setting with the stock lens. I still need to practice more with background blurring, but I can tell I’m going to have a lot more fun having full control of my shot.

Transforming leftover breakfast into more breakfast

I took the last of yesterday’s breakfast bake and turned it into an egg, ham and turkey cheese breakfast sandwich to power me through the day, mainly getting things in line for another week in the hole, and making some blog posts ahead of time to auto post over the next couple of days, as I plan to be very busy with real life stuff and a couple other things. I also made a few yogurt parfaits. I have a nice cherry matcha parfait to look forward to tomorrow. I threw together some vanilla yogurt, matcha, chopped frozen cherries, some maraschino cherry juice, and some pulverized oats with crunchy honey almond and fruit granola.

Evening Open Thread: Sandvich Edition

It was too warm for me to want to cook anything today/tonight. I made some nice hearty sandwiches, for all to share. I even have enough for after work lunch tomorrow. I was wearing my Half Life 2 shirt today at work, and the spirit of Gabe’s many sub sandwiches convinced me to make something hearty with not too much effort, and I think I succeeded.

Today was productive, both at work and at home with SFM; got a lot of animation out of the way. I might even be able to render something tomorrow. :zorak: Nothing worth sharing yet, will keep posted. In the meantime, to keep with the theme of Valve and sandwiches, here is one of my favorite TF2 characters:
