I coordinate the Creations community classes at MCI. I'd be happy to make recommendations, or if there's something you really want to take and could get some friends to attend, I can put that on the Spring schedule. Let me know--dm me on Twitter @baydar or email direct. thanks and Happy New Year! amy Julie,

A simple point and shoot camera has many terrific settings that can be used to your advantage to take excellent photographs. The trick is to hold that camera steady in low light situations when you don't use a flash. You can set the camera on something (i.e. purse or whatever) to help with this since you most likely won't have a tripod on you. Also, if you get something like Photoshop Elements you can do some post-processing work in a jiff and make average photographs look a lot better. Elements costs less than $100 so it is a much more economical way to get to high quality photographs than buying a DSLR camera which will cost you several hundred dollars at the least. .-= Randy Simes´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.urbancincy.com/2010/01/3cdc-makes-transformative-impact-over.html" rel="nofollow">3CDC makes transformative impact over last decade</a> =-.

I still see it on the right hand side under the blogrolls. Is that what you're referring to? I did some tweaking over the weekend. Where did you see “view all”?

I used to be able to click on 'view all' and get updates. Any chance on adding that feature back to your blog page?

It is very nice and has a wide angle lens which means you do not have to step back very far to get a picture of a group or in your case pictures of food. I have had cannon and nikon cameras before and this is the best one so far. Easy to use, intuitive screen instructions and good battery life.

I tend to make broad goals, which helps me to focus on them better and not become discouraged if I get off-track. I think your goal of spending more time "disconnected" from the outside world is a vital one. I'd classify that as connecting more with Julie--and that's really, really important for taking care of yourself. :-) Happy 2010! xo .-= Rose´s last blog ..<a href="http://vandeneynden.biz/blog/?p=733" rel="nofollow">Musings About 2010</a> =-.

I think most of ours cross over to some extent: keep up w/ blog; make time for self improvement; etc. This year for me posses new challenges and opportunities that will force me to keep my resolutions in my internship at Ferran Adria's Alicia Foundation in Spain: immerse myself into 2 foreign languages at the same time; realize internal resourcefulness with no income; be active & walk with no car; appreciate my husband & family more; and make progress on gluten free baking formulation for those who have to suffer w/ crappy gluten free baked goods. I guess that is the best way to do it: throw yourself into it without any fear or remorse. On classes: you really cannot go wrong. Upon my return from Spain I am teaching a class the Party Source "Gluten Free Italian Feast" which will focus more on techniques, rather than recipes. That will be Tuesday, April 20th. MCI Classes are always a good thing. Cookware's apparently have some great classes, too. My friend, Chef Rhonda Clark (Flash in the Pan) teaches a class on knife skills there. .-= Erin Swing´s last blog ..<a href="http://thesensitiveepicure.blogspot.com/2009/12/vanilla-panna-cotta-with-blackberry.html" rel="nofollow">Vanilla Panna Cotta with Blackberry Coulis</a> =-.

ANY community class is better than NO class. It's less important where you decide to jump in ... than that you decide to jump in! My own introduction to cooking classes was through a community course taught by Chef Doug. It was a good class -- very task focused (when we left each day, we knew how to make one complete menu), and was the hook that got me, well, hooked. Class on 1/16 is on cream soups. Very tasty class, that one. Good for flavor, bad for resolution #4. Let me know if you're interested in attending and we can go over details offline. .-= Drew Vogel´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.drewvogel.com/2010/01/01/happy-2010/" rel="nofollow">Happy 2010!</a> =-.
