Tyler Taffy Tuesday

A Blog About My Life, Candy, Photography & Travel.

I woke up today to gray skies after last night's thunder storms.  Traffic in the candy store is so tied to the weather I can't believe it sometimes.   The sun came out after lunch and it was like someone flipped a switch.    Here come the kids.  I just unpacked a big candy order so we have lots on new stuff.  It is so fun to see the looks delight on the kid's faces when they come in and the see something new.  It is the best part of the job.

I have been posting what I call Facebook Freebies.  Every so often I put a post on the Miracole's Facebook page offering some kind of candy for free just to see who is paying attention. You must mention the Facebook Freebie to get the free piece of candy.   One of my customers, Tyler, keeps missing it so today I called it Tyler Taffy Tuesday.   I hope he sees it.

I thought since Prom season is coming up I would feature Tailor On Main once again.  My Granddaughter is having owner, Cindy Hansen, alter her Prom dress.  Cindy does such an amazing job.  Being someone who hates to sew I really appreciate having Tailor On Main just down the street.  Tailor On Main is located in the Dowtown Lakeville Mall just down from Post Office.

With the Easter Holiday coming up I thought this article on Photographing Groups might be helpful.  I try

to get group shots whenever we have a family get together and it can be a challenge to get a good

picture of everyone.  Our family tradition has become taking at least one group shot of everyone making

a funny face.  This seems to be the price I pay to get them to smile.

Corel has debuted a new program called After Shot Pro.  It looks like it will be similiar to Adobe's Light Room.  It as photo editing capabilities as well a system to organize and catalog your digital images.  I have been really lax about organizing my images.  I do have them by date but it is still a challenge to find a certain image if you can't remember when it was taken.
