Sure could go for a delicious espresso from @steannesspa this morning 💗 my love affair with coffee is not over (unfortunately) as I tried to kick the habit a while back..

✨ New Recipe: Baked Banana Blueberry Oatmeal 🌱 Now I know it's like 35 degrees outside and the last thing you want is a hot recipe but I promise this is just so comforting in the mornings, even during the summer ☀️ Oats are a great #plantbasedprotein and are a complex carb which means they'll release sugars slowly into the blood stream and help keep you feeling full longer. 👍 I promise your gonna love it.

I definitely find an SLR provides the most vibrant #foodie photos, but that's not always the case - this photo was captured with my iPhone 5S using natural lighting. I'm not a photographer by any means, I'm a beginning at best but I just wanted to share what I use for my photos as I am always wondering what other people are using for theirs! I also use an app called 'snapseed' it's amazing for photo editing when I want to add more vibrancy ☀️ pictured is the most delicious #vegan & #glutenfree cake from @steannesspa and my new Canon Rebel T5i 💗💚 To see more delicious foodie photos from @steannesspa check out my recent blog post || HerBalancedLife.com ✅ || #foodphotography #canon (at HerBalancedLife.com)
