I am typing from the Golden Plough Inn at Peddler’s Village tonight on my whirlwind tour over the next few weeks. I am snapping photos for the Mid-Atlantic Wine and Food Festival and so far it’s been delicious. Tomorrow we celebrate with all things bacon and bourbon.
Immediately after that I am hoping to Peru. I am back at it with The Giving Lens, a wonderful organisation that sends photographers to some amazing locations around the world to partner with NGO’s teaching photography skills. I recently went to Cambodia and found myself too excited to not join the team heading to Peru.

I am super blessed to be able to do this and can’t wait to get there! If you are curious, please check out their site and follow along on Instagram and the hashtag ‪#‎TGLPeru‬.

Oh, and last weekend while chatting it up with the lovely folks with Char-Broil, GirlCarnivore went and got herself her own Instagram account (can I really refer to my site as a she?… weird… but I’ll roll with it).
