Bread Basket Cafe & Bakery

Thankful for friends who introduce me to new foodie locations.  They know I am game for anything and good food is good food.

After a shoot, Jody and I ventured to the Bread Basket Cafe & Bakery in Danville, Indiana.  Where I found out all things are made from scratch.  We walked in to what looked like a home that has been renovated into a restaurant so it has that feel.  Entry is filled with homemade breads.  I cannot even tell you all the varieties because if I would have bought one load, I would have bought 5 because I like to try EVERYTHING!

What we had:  Potato soup | Roast beef sandwiches | Roasted veggie soup | Warm apple crisp pie with whip and caramel drizzle |Peanut butter pie with whip, caramel and chocolate drizzle

What we took home: Caramel filled cookies | Hedgehog cookies | Mini peanut butter and carrot cakes

This was worth the visit and I will go with anybody that wants to visit!

Farm to Fork at Omni Severin

As someone who loves food, but also as someone who like a good deal on any meal, I cannot stress how pleasantly surprised I was when attending the Omni’s Farm to Fork event.  There is nothing else to compare this experience to (in my opinion).  From the meal to the wonderful company, you cannot beat this experience.  5 courses for $49.

The photos from the night will do the talking but I will give you a little information on the sponsors and menu for this event which benefits Second Helpings.

Participating: Cardinal Spirits, Huber’s Winery, Traders Point Creamery, Amelia’s Bread, and Best Chocolate in Town.

Contact Omni Severin at 317.634.6664 for the next Farm to Fork on August 31st.

Special shout out to Chef Dominique!

And thanks to Susan Decker for the invite!

Headshots

Headshots. Why are they important?  Well, a photo is usually the first impression a person has of you. Whatever social media, business site or dating platform you’re on, they all require a ‘headshot’.

My theory on when you should get your headshot taken. Everybody has one. If you no longer look like your picture, you need to update. You don’t want anyone jumping back when they first meet you, thinking to themselves, ‘he/she looks nothing like their photo’.

More and more, I’m seeing parents/mentors gift college seniors with headshots. I applaud and support their understanding in knowing how important this is. I have so many people waiting to lose weight and whatever excuse they can come up with. My advice DON’T WAIT!

Faith Blackwell: Photography | Food | Lifestyle

Welcome!

First I want to say welcome to all who enters the magical world of FBP!  This will be a place I share my latest photography shoots and specials.  I’ve had several people ask when I’m starting a foodie blog because I like to eat, so you will get a taste of that (no pun intended).  At times I will just state things that are going on in my head.  Don’t be scared!

And so it begins…
