In My World Today: Birthday Celebration
These photos represent how I feel about my husband’s birthday this week. Filled with sweetness, joy, fun times, a true celebration of the existence of a being who is not just my husband, and a real MAN, but my best friend and life partner. I feel so blessed and grateful DAILY, to experience and continue to CREATE our life TOGETHER as a team. He is the ultimate sweetest man EVER. That’s why I don’t crave sweets cause I have him in my life every day!
Sugar talk: Well, and also I don’t eat refined sugar (because I know what it does to the human body and I love my cells too much to hurt them (Self-love and consciousness), and just for disclaimer purposes, I do not put out refined sugary anythings at my parties or daily culinary adventures I create for my family and friends (unless its macrobiotic, vegan, and delicious or for beautiful photoshoot/art purposes.) Photography is art, and art inspires, evokes a feeling inside that can give endless amount of FEEL GOoD results over and over. The results of actual eating sugar…not so inspiring: aging, loosing elasticity on your skin, acidity which promotes disease, diabetes, cellular damage… I can go on.. What I LOVE about photography is COLOR, TEXTURE, BEAUTY, COMPOSITION, and most of all, how all these together make you feel.
Back to my husband: Its not just today that is a celebration of his existence… I celebrate EVERYDAY, we celebrate and are grateful daily for our life together. Honey you are such a noble, wise, smart, funny, insightful, creative, sexy, adorable, considerate, protective, affectionate, ethical, pure soul and you make me feel: Inspired, empowered…. our life is our canvas and that’s my favorite piece of art.
My husband is also an amazing DP and Photographer, and we both appreciate, share, and enjoy making art that inspires us. I’m a fan. HAPPY BIRTHDAY LOVE!!!
P.S. I know what my sister Maryl is thinking as she reads this. “What? You do eat desserts!” Ok here is my list of desserts I do have when I want: coconut chocolate mouse from Cafe Gratitude (organic, vegan, raw and sweetened with dates), chocolate/vanilla swirl from Kind Kreme (organic, almond milk based, vegan, gourmet, sweetened with RAW honey which I do use at home) , Equal Exchange 80% dark chocolate from panama (fair trade, vegan, organic, sweetened with organic raw cane sugar) and from time to time I make zucchini, gluten free muffins that I sweetened with apple sauce/juice that I make at home. I mostly crave salads and quinoa pasta …. And yes, we will have some healthy sweets section in our upcoming nutrition/cookbook.
