My organic farm specializes in a very unique blueberry cultivar called "Pink Lemonade." It's very real and very pink. I've also enclosed the label to a wheat beer that I brew with the pink blueberries

So i'm not sure if i'm allowed to enter and win again, but even if I can't at least you guys get to enjoy my pic . This picture was captured in Boca Raton, FL at an asian restaurant called Ka-Pow! I believed they're "Fried BBQ Pork Wontons."

Taken with a Nexus 4. Post-edited through SnapSeed.

Vegan Whole Wheat Oatmeal Banana Pancakes!

Made from scratch - these are so good, and super healthy!

Taken with a stock camera on my Samsung Galaxy S3.

Here's the recipe in case anyone wants it:

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup regular oatmeal
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or just cinnamon with a dash of nutmeg)
1 cup almond milk (estimate)
2 over-ripe at-least-half-black bananas
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp coconut oil
1/4 cup toasted, chopped pecans and/or walnuts


Combine flour, oatmeal, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a bowl. Add almond milk just until it's moist and barely stirrable with a wooden spoon. This is important - you don't want to add any more moisture than you absolutely have to.

Break bananas into 1 or 2 inch pieces and drop into bowl. Use the back side of the spoon to mash the banana pieces against the side of the bowl until flattened. Stir together to combine bananas with mixture.

Add vanilla extract and coconut oil then stir to combine.

Add chopped pecans/walnuts and stir. If your coconut oil is not liquid (it becomes solid at like 76F degrees) you can put the hot pecans/walnuts on top of it, in the bowl, to melt it.

Cook on skillet or griddle at low heat, preferrably in some coconut oil to help prevent sticking. We use "simmer" on our electric stove. After about 5 minutes you will either start to smell it or see the top stop glistening (or both!). Check the color on the bottom with a spatula and don't flip unless it's a golden brown (nice and crispy!). Cook for another 2 minutes on the other side or until it's golden brown and crispy as well. Enjoy!

P.S. - Save the batter, don't make extra. These are 10x better when fresh-cooked!

Swampy's Gator Platter: deep fried alligator with remoulade sauce on the side, corn casserole, and a Blue Moon beer.

Swampy's is a restaurant on the Rainbow River in central Florida. You can see the river in the background. I took this with my Nexus 4 and it is unaltered. I was visiting my mother (I live in Michigan) and helping her pack up to move to a retirement community near Sarasota. This was our last night in her old town.

Feeding frenzy (FOOD!) as I am feeding my tropical fish BLOODWORMS!
No editing done (although I almost did because of the high light intensity from the T5 lighting right above the tank.)

Fist full of almonds for a midnight snack on my nexus 7 tablet. The same tablet that I just got off craigslist in trade for my Samsung chromebook, the guy I traded with also gave me $75 since it doesn't have charger and it had a small ding by the power button. No edits but my wife's legs are slightly in their picture *hopes for bonus points*

Here are some cupcakes we made. The heads are nilla wafers, random stuff for eyes/mouths, and the blankets are fruit rollups. Made them for a school fair cake walk. They were the first item taken as a prize. This was taken with a Samsung Captivate.
