My new excitements and Pesto Couscous Salad انجازين حلوين بالعطلة وسلطة المفتول بالبستو
Note: The English Version of this post is below
I hope you had a pleasant weekend. This weekend I was so excited about two things...the first one is my new purchase...I bought a new Camera to take better shots of food to put you out there in the mood with me. Many of you have asked me who takes my photos (and believe me am not even close to being good like many professional bloggers out there). But I am working on my skills and I needed to buy a new camera in order to sharpen those skills a bit as a point and shoot camera is not doing it anymore for me
Here is my new baby.. The NX2000 from Samsung...what a lovely and affordable DSLR to all who love photography and can't afford the high priced DSLRs and to beginners like myself who want to experiment ...this Camera is definitely the one for you.. and it came with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4 :) Can't complain at all..not to mention that I got 70 JDs in store credit from Carrefour...where I bought this Camera from...hehehe...more food to buy :)
The front...Samsung also offers a wide range of lenses which you can buy separately
And here is the back (touch screen)
Thank you Samsung and Carrefour for making my day (Samsung should pay me for this ad...hahaha... :)
The other thing I am excited about is my new plants at my tiny winy balcony (it is so small that it barely fits a couple of small chairs and a small table) but I like to see greenery so I went for a full spring makeover this weekend and here are some shots ...of course taken by the new camera (no photoshop or adjustments where made to these photos just adding my name and resized)
Am in love with the small drops of water on this flower which the camera took a good shot at...
Now lets get cooking after all the babbling I made...So being excited and all about the camera I got cooking in the kitchen and made many dishes which I hope to share with you accordingly...one of them actually is the repeated mini ricotta and cherry tomatoes tarts and here is the new pic with the new camera
today I will be sharing this wonderful and refreshing salad made with pesto and couscous...
