The theme for October’s photo blogging challenge hosted by http://hoohaa.com/ was LIQUID. I tried to find cool, different pictures that fit the theme.
Without further ado, here are my pictures on the theme.

This is my friend’s fancy espresso and cappuccino machine. One Saturday we were all together and as everyone was drinking their coffee, I decided to spotlight the machine that made it all possible 🙂

After watching a video on Facebook, I made a face serum with the recipe that was featured in the video. The ingredient Blue Tansy gives it its vibrant color. I have been using it daily and my skin seems softer because of it. Plus, it was really easy to make.
1.5 oz rose hip oil & .5 oz jojoba oil
20 drops each essential oil Blue Tansy, Frankincense, Lavender, Sandalwood

I had to go on a business trip and stayed at a Embassy Suites. I love that they have complimentary drinks during their Happy Hour. I ordered a vodka cranberry so that I could get my Vitamin C.

My business trip destination was San Francisco. Of course, I had to get a picture of the San Francisco bridge. It is so peaceful to sit at the park at look out over the water. However, I could not stay long because it got chilly. That wind is something else!

At an art event that I attended, there was a potter spinning clay. It was mesmerizing to watch her mold the clay with her hands, adding drops of water at the right time. What started as a lump of clay became the vase you see in the picture. I am planning to take her class because I want to learn how to make pottery.

To quote another blogger GeoKs
While you’re there, please consider joining us next month! Participation is like taking on a low-stress photo assignment, which you can use to refine your photography skills. Any camera will do: your phone, a pocket-sized point and shoot, the DSLR that’s been gathering dust somewhere or a film camera. For each month’s theme, you’re asked to share five photos; the amount of accompanying text is up to you.
Creative takes on the prompt! That is a very good espresso machine. 👌 We have been to Embassy Suites in Niagara Falls a few times, and I also enjoyed the Vodka with Cranberry. Their appetizers, on the other hand, leave a lot to be desired, but you can’t quibble with free. 😄 Lovely shot of San Francisco; one bucket list destination still to be fulfilled.

Yes! The appetizers were okay but free drinks are what I needed after a long day.

What a terrific mix of subject matter. As an outdoors & nature lover, I appreciate the curving shoreline in the San Francisco bridge photo. And the detail in Photo 2 – all that skin texture, oozing serum – just outstanding!
