I warned you that I had a new topic I would pull out whenever the writing genes wouldn’t zip up all the way.
I call it Instant Grat Instagram. {Lamely} bringing you my favorite moments from what is currently my favorite social media platform in a more or less thematic effort.
Hope you enjoy!
This week: Catching up – some recent memories brought to you courtesy of my occasionally trusty phone.
A crazy-beautiful sunset at work.
My baby orchid ($10 at Trader Joes!) is kicking out some gorgeous blooms! Second round since I bought it back in November. Hmmm. Maybe I am the orchid whisperer.
The debilitating dusting of Snow that shut down Atlanta last Friday. I had a highly enjoyable half-day off work hanging out with the hubs. No complaints. 🙂
Sunday brunch with my bestie at Venkmans. Live jazz, bottomless mimosas and finally a chance to get up to speed with all that’s been going on with each other – I haven’t seen her since November!
Monday night’s Taste of India Dinner at Dr. Bombay’s Underwater Tea Party. This is a monthly event to raise money for their non-profit, The Learning Tea, that provides homes and college scholarships for young women in India.
As always, Taste of India was an awesome evening of great people and delicious food and an opportunity to hang out with another close friend that I haven’t seen in a bit, Dana.
It’s been a fun and fabulous last few days and a wonderful chance to catch up not just with dear friends, but now with you guys as well.
Once again, made instantly grateful just by looking at the ol’ Instagram. I find it a very helpful attitude adjuster, especially as I’m facing Wednesday morning.
::aarrghh, Wednesday::
Wishing you a happy and picture perfect week!
Happy Wednesday, Kimi. You instantly made me smile this morning as I catch up on WP before preparing for my mid-day shift. 🙂 Bloomin’ orchid whisperer, indeed. ❤

I have not joined Instagram yet. I will have to take a look at it.

I really enjoy it. There are some cool filters you can play around with and you can still “share” when you don’t have time to write!

I will look into that. Trouble is, I do all of my blogging from my ipad and the memory can really get used up with photos and photo editing. I need to learn to use my laptop for that.

Do you have a smartphone? That’s probably the best way to Instagram. Since it’s an app, you can only add photos using a device, although you can view with your laptop.

I do, in fact, I just got it last week and I’m still learning it. I will get there little by little. But that sounds like a good idea. Take them with my phone and upload them to my laptop.
