TARGET MANGO SMOOTHIE

i had to shop for tabletop props for an upcoming shoot and one of my stops was Target ...and no i do not hate children.... as a matter of fact i am fond of most all i meet.... but sadly it was crying child day at Target... do they send out an email blast and ask for crying children??? .. i am peacefully trying to shop for drink glasses and all i hear is crying and screaming yet i do not see any children ....is this a new canned music craze and i again missed the memo ....so after checking out i treated myself to a mango smoothie and all my cares melted away.... may i suggest one they are yummy  ... ps if the child was enjoying  a mango smoothie the crying may stop... just a thought

REDI WHIP AND NO AIR IN JULY

Ok.... what do you do when you are shooting whip cream in july, in a studio with a broken air conditioner  ?????  sweat from the heat and the sweat from the pressure... not everyday is glamorous but the redi whip was the only cold thing in the room ... some days you have to suffer for the greater good .... thanks to the crew that made this happen it is always a group effort.

WALL STREET , NBC , ADAM RAPOPORT , BON APPETIT, HOME DEPOT AND A FOOD STYLIST

some days my job is good, some days my job is interesting ... but i was not ready for this location...... i knew we where shooting near wall street and i knew i was permitted to drive into the location to unload ...but i had no idea ... security is very tight there and everyone was so wonderful and helpful ( 4 checkpoints )  ......the NBC crew was sooo amazing.....NBC -Wall Street Journal Report With Maria Bartiromo ... but the parking place was just to much for words  .. even this jaded girl who works national TV every week was excited .... a day i will never forget... Adam Rapoport cooked burgers and steaks on the Home Depot grill and the yummy smells drew a huge crowd... the crew feasted on everything after the shoot and even asked for recipes ... a huge compliment because these guys see it all.... check out the recipes on the website
