I came across this 30 Days of Gratitude Photography Challenge on Brown Eyed Baker’s blog and thought it would be an awesome way to bring a little more meaning and gratitude into my life this month, stretch myself creatively, improve my photography skills, and have fun. I made the challenge photo below my desktop image as a reminder to think about the theme of the day and capture a moment.
If you want to join along, Brown Eyed Baker has set up a flickr group and a hashtag #30daysofgratitude on twitter to share your photos.
Day 1… Favorite Food.
Eggs. I actually think eggs are the perfect food and eat them every single day. Breakfast, dinner, 3am snack after a night out. Protein and fat to fill me and nourish my brain. Complete protein source. Energy. Versatile. Savory and hearty. A binder for baking. A vehicle for all my favorite toppings. And a perfect runny dressing over salads and grains. I’m grateful for eggs.

If you were participating in this challenge, what would you have snapped a photo of today?
Very cool challenge..so is it just ‘start when ever you want’? Being that today is Nov 8, I take it you’re not on day 8/fave color, but are on day 1, and your challenge will be up on Dec 8th? Just wondering if I can jump in any time. Went to BEB’s site but no info there. I love the idea!
oh yeah, I figured since she just posted it yesterday that it was sort of a start whenever you feel like it challenge. I may try to catch up by doing 2/day, or I may just continue at this pace. I think its just for fun either way! You should join in
I love this challenge idea!! I may just do it on my own as well. I would probably take a picture of a kabocha squash, which is my current favorite food!
I remember you pinned (and then I pinned) another photo challenge that I almost started, but this one seemed just a bit more my style
Oats! They are a healthy carb, which I need to eat more of, and are the perfect base for any flavors, savory or sweet!
I just tried for the first time (in the picture in my post in fact) savory oats! Can’t believe I waited so long.
considering I’m always looking for some blogging inspiration, I may need to jump on board this bandwagon! my favorite food = nut butter. I know, typical
I might have to join this! My favorite food is peanut butter followed closely by cheese
mmm I could never pick a favorite type of cheese though, can you?!
Either Midnight Moon or Gruyere. That’s tough!
This is SUCH a fantastic idea!!!! I definitely love eggs–I could not live without them. However, my favorite foods right now is eating apples with almond butter! I am still completely obsessed!
I love cold crisp apples with almond butter too. I know we’re on the same page about that
Sounds like a fun challenge! I have a hard time choosing a favorite food – eggs are high on the list, but right now I’m obsessed with squash and goat cheese and chocolate … not together, of course
What’s under your egg? Is it oatmeal or rice?
it’s oatmeal yes! First time trying some savory oats.
This is such a great challenge! I love it! I may have to do my own! Your eggs look amazing! I love eggs, too – they can be used in so many different ways!
what a great challenge. I kinda want to participate by i don’t have a cool camera. I do have eggs ! my favorite too!
you take gorgeous pictures, no need for any fancy equipment- you’re proof of that!
What a fun challenge! Your photo is gorgeous…it would convert any egg hater. My favorite foods are bananas.
thanks! bananas are practically as versatile as eggs with the sweetness they lend dishes- i love baking with them!
i’m de-lurking! just found you via natalie (cinnamon bums) a few days ago and i absolutely looove your space here

challenges like this are a great way to break in a new camera and challenge yourself to practice more for sure. glad you share my love for eggs too!
What a cute idea. I’m all for holiday inspired photography challenges. Plus I’m a serial bandwagon-er.
Fun Challenge! Can’t wait to see all your great photos!
Favourite food? Apples. Great pic, I really should give the old savoury oats thing a whirl, you make it look gooooooood
Ok, I do love eggs, and I wish I wasn’t allergic to them!! Dang allergies…I still eat them from time to time…..mmmmmmmmm with toast. YUM!
