I was invited a few weeks ago to visit Goodwill Industries of Central Florida, Inc. I was elated because I love supporting non-profit organizations and getting to know more about our community and what we can do to help each other.

First up, a summary of what Goodwill is all about:

to help Floridians overcome barriers to employments and become self-sufficient – thereby reducing the burden on the state and its taxpayers, and empowering our program participants not only with paychecks, but with dignity and self-worth.

You definitely got my vote 😉

We begin the tour by visiting the vocational services. There you’ll find people from all walks of life – including the under-privileged and special kids – coached for self-sustaining and job opportunities.

Hey y’all! Hope your Monday is as glorious as Florida’s recent weather 😀

Just returned from a glorious run. First I thought it would be impossible to get myself out there. But having chowed down on delicious french toast this morning – smothered in butter, nutella and peanut butter – it was more than a convincing reason to workout.

Happy Tuesday!

Firstly, a heartfelt plea:

Amit Gupta, founder of Photojojo was recently diagnosed with Acute Leukemia. Please help him find a bone marrow donor soon. They are encouraging anyone of South Indian descent to take a cheek swab test for a bone marrow match. Click to get more details on how to get a free test by mail.

It’s been raining cats and dogs for the last few days. Being a photographer with absolute need of natural light, its difficult to venture outdoors for shooting. The only subjects I’ve been shooting lately are foods. And dare I say how much I am loving it? What’s not to love about food photography. It’s an amazing way to chronology beautiful produce.

Hey y’all!

Hard to believe its half-way through Monday already huh?! Even harder, knowing that September is over. But we are ‘cite and looking forward to cooler fall temps. Florida, enough already with the sweltering, hot and humid weather. And hello to gorgeous lower temps. I’d take any weather below 90s. Any day, any time 😉

I had fun reading your comments on Monday Blues. Many shared similar pet peeves and otherwise. One that strikes out in particular to me is where music is ON as soon as you visit a blog or webpage. A huge NO to me. Very annoying. I mean, who could concentrate on reading with such disturbance? I’d rather hear it on MP3 or CD, thank you very much.
