There it is: my new lens. This is my "I can't wait until my actual birthday" birthday present! It is that one, expensive thing that I can only get on a great day like the anniversary of my birth. This is a macro lens that will let me take really close up shots of things. I am BORN to do this! I am so excited for this lens that I couldn't use it today. I just set it there, to stare at it. I only barely touched it, with extra caution that my 6 year old camera body no longer receives. In fact, it was very difficult to mount this gorgeous beauty onto my old camera body. Unfortunately, a new camera body is way, way, way beyond my current birthday budget.
This morning I converted many long sleeve tee shirts into short sleeve tee shirts. On the one hand, this is a green thing to do. It's useful. It's economical. I like how they came out. On the other hand, I felt sort of poor or cheap somehow. Odd but true. I'm sure I'll get over it when the girls wear these all summer.
I also sewed a change purse. I love it.
All afternoon, I let my new soup creation simmer on the stove. I tried to research leeks soup recipes but my country internet connection was not cooperating so I just went for it - making up my own soup recipe! Soup is a fairly basic model anyhow. It turned out very good.
