Friday Finisher 8/24/18

Published: Aug 24, 2018 · Modified: Mar 11, 2019 by Rebecca Pytell · This post may contain affiliate links.

Buried in photos and recipes this week! From reshooting, remaking and tweaking recipes (yet to be posted), creating new things, photos for clients...woooo. So many ideas have been popping into my head recently and we've finally had some decent days of light (hello sun) for shooting...I don't want to waste them! Also feeling the pressure of PUMPKIN, HOLIDAY, SPICE, MAPLE recipes right now! We all know that once we get past the first 2 weeks of August, the pumpkin starts trickling in and then BAM it's front and center everywhere! But don't worry guys...I'll oblige and give you pumpkin goodies starting in September, haha, just hold tight!

I have a "discussion" post that I wrote up last Thursday and almost posted it this week. I think it needs a few more tweaks, but it revolves around a food allergy topic that came up in a food allergy group I'm in. It's going to be a different kind of post than you're used to, but I'll try to get it up next week at some point...stay tuned; I'm interested in hearing your take!
