Steal of the Day

At work this week, I’ve needed to photograph some people around the office. I needed some high quality images, so  I borrowed my boyfriend’s Canon XS. Oh my gosh– it’s my new favorite thing in the world. I’ve used a couple of entry level SLR cameras in the past, and this one has by far been the best. Without a doubt, I’ll be  buying one as soon as I can. If you’re in the market for a camera, you should do the same. No joke– this thing is awesome.

I’m 23 years old, and I can barely make eggs. Even though this personal fact is kind of funny, it’s also pretty shameful. How in the world can someone become an independent adult without learning to cook? It’s simple: my parents thought that accident-prone Ritika would injure herself, and I was perma-banned from the stove. Parents, teach your children the basic concepts of cooking — food safety, appliance safety, and utensil safety. The Fiesta Head Chefs Silicone Spatula is a fun and effective tool to get you started.
