I have to admit everywhere I go I always try and t

I have to admit everywhere I go I always try and take that perfect Instagram photo. The city of Austin is incredible for that there’s lots of cute little places in murals where you can take amazing photos.❤️
.
However you wanna know my dirty little secret! I actually am not the best at capturing these kinds of moments 🤦‍♀️it takes me several shots in several different poses until I look what I consider Instagram worthy.
.
However The most important thing is capturing the moment in it’s true honesty. And not having it be too contrived! That is Instagram magic🌟🌟🌟.
.I’m just happy that so many incredible influencers are coming out with the truth about taking photos and how many of them are contrived.
.
My friend @jogrange completely changed my outlook on being comfortable with yourself by being yourself! Thanks @jogrange for inspiring us other Instagram Peeps to feel normal when our photos aren’t 100%❤️oh also the biggest coincidence this wall is in front of the Austin famous @joscoffee 😃
.
See this glorious photo it only took eight shots to get it that’s good because my husband kept moving to different positions😁😁😁 Scroll through the other photos to see the mini other tries that we had of this photo until we finally landed on this one.

Sometimes... I need a cookie. It doesn’t happen very often. But when it does these gooey chocolate chip cookies are IT!❤️❤️❤️
.
Here is WHY these cookies are the ultimate chocolate chip cookie.
.
✅the flour... or rather the amount of flour is the key here!
✅salt: I add a good amount of salt to really bring out the flavor of these gloriously sexy cookies
✅butter (duh): there are 2 kinds of butter here and they are both super important
✅the chocolate: bittersweet and in chunks for the ultimate gourmet bakery feel
✅espresso to really bring out that flavor
