Karen, thanks for the kind words. I wish the light was better. We have had so much rain as of late and my work schedule has worked well with the "good light". I have dabbled with food photography. I did a lot of reading and talked several times with a couple highly regarded food photographers in our area. It is actually fun and much more difficult than I thought. The chocolate one was a great one. Yes, I am a chocoholic as well. #7992029
