Caramel Apples, Just in time for the holidays

Caramel Apples

Behold. My Harry & David-esque photo for the holidays…

My friend Donna made these caramel apples complete with a hand-written, considerate yet humorous note that read, “Dental Warning: This caramel is great at ripping out fillings and crowns…Chew with caution”

I don’t recall ever having a candy or caramel apple before but these were kind of addicting and not sickly sweet like I had imagined. Really yummy. And, no, I didn’t eat both of them by myself. And, yes, I did chew with caution.

Mya Jumping across a creekMya on BridgeAbove: I love Mya’s stance on the little bridge. Isn’t she standing like a little dancer?! Love that back leg. So poised.

Mya diptych (hair blowing)

Her eyes are such a beautiful, unique color. Not quite fully blue, but almost.

Mya diptych portrait (curly hair)Love those pretty curls of hers! They look like ribbons.

Mya Dancing, triptych

Ah, the lil’ dancer. These were spontaneous, but I’ll definitely have to re-shoot her twirling in an environment that’s not so busy.

— Such a cutie. —Mya (close-up, grey backdrop)
