Quick & Yummy

When I ordered this book I originally thought it was all slow cooker meals but it wasn't. 
Either way I still did find them quick and full of flavor. 
I missed the first book of this so I was glad when this became available. 
I would recommend this to anyone that wants home cooked meals that are healthier and do not take much time to prepare. 
When I come home from work I really do not want to take time to cook so if it's a quick prep or better yet something that could be prepped before hand I am all about it! 

I received this book free from blogging for books for a fair and honest review.

Photographs from the edge review

I've always been fascinated with photography. To see the differences between two photographers taking the same picture and how they could make you see different things in each. From something as subtle as what color to focus on to where the light source is coming in to just that little glimps in someone's eye that tells you want they are thinking. 
In this book you jump into your time machine back to my favorite decade the 80's and see that the world consisted of more than just big hair, lots of makeup, bright neon colors in clothes and leg warmers, you see beauty.
For each decade he explains everything from what camera & filters were used to tips on how to get the shot. 
The book ends in January 2015 with a picture of green sea turtle hatchlings!
The book is a journey in pictures from animals to Mount Everest to volcano bursts to the Milky Way to Monks and celebrations.
 I would highly recommend this book for everyone. It's insightful for up and coming photographers, a storyline for a traveler or simply a coffee book to flip through and see beauty anytime you would want. 

I received this book for free from Blogging for books for a fair and honest review but I will be buying other copies for friends!
