I am another such person. I have this theory that it depends on who's doing the reviews that day, because one day they will accept one of my pictures, and the next they will reject one that has the same lighting, composition, focus & give me some bull comment on it. What bothers me more is I often find people with identical composition who have been published & their pictures are worse! <br />What all this rejection undoubtedly leads to is a feeling of failure within your own work & you begin to doubt your skills as a photographer. Don't! <br />I say get back on, keep plugging at it, and just try to use it as a way to improve. Also, submit your photos to foodgawker.com (they tend to be a little kinder) & yumgoggle.com (very kind).<br />You have excellent pictures & they should be shared!<br /><br />Lauren-Nicolehttp://www.whateversleft.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708271966633841892.post-74801171217186199602012-07-29T16:49:05.204-05:002012-07-29T16:49:05.204-05:00Thanks for the idea, trying it tomorrow as my litt...Thanks for the idea, trying it tomorrow as my little son has an egg allergy as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708271966633841892.post-66742112188339273302012-06-27T17:14:36.685-05:002012-06-27T17:14:36.685-05:00I'm so glad I'm not the only one marinatin...I'm so glad I'm not the only one marinating waiting for my pics to be posted.<br />I am your newest FAN. <br />You're funny and sweet!<br />I started blogging for fun, and now my husband thinks it's getting to expensive for him.<br />I'm supposed to be earning not spending.<br />Happy to have found your blog.The Red Apronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00360168426829451730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708271966633841892.post-19170982786962204062012-06-09T02:41:12.450-05:002012-06-09T02:41:12.450-05:00Omg I laughed so hard I cried.

I made a batch of cookies with it over Christmas and honestly couldn't tell a difference at all. Kind of a wonder product, really.<br /><br />Glad to see your creative venture is taking off. I'm sure you will be super entertaining and charming on-air!!

So I made these cookies last night and they looked amazing. they were pretty good out of the oven but when they cooled, they turned into very crunchy cookies! Sadness! I admit that I used another brand thatn Ener-g but it has the same exact ingredients - just curious if this often happens in baked goods with starches?? the flavor of the cookies was good though more toffee than traditional choc chip (i guess with so much brown sugar that is to be expected.) Also they have a relatively small amount of leaveners - might try increasing by 1/2 tsp each.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-708271966633841892.post-87194362854259888912011-10-20T12:32:43.815-05:002011-10-20T12:32:43.815-05:00I'm so excited to have found this recipe (and ...I'm so excited to have found this recipe (and your blog!).
