“Emily, A Margarita, and National Caesar Salad Day”

Most people are posting about July 4th today, but I’m sticking with my food photography theme.

Today happens to be National Caesar Salad Day, the perfect excuse to celebrate that classic mix of crisp romaine, croutons, parmesan, and anchovy dressing.

So, I asked Emily, my AI assistant, to come by and make a Caesar salad for us to photograph.

She said she’d handle it out by the pool.

When we first started working together, Emily was all business: fast, focused, delivering exactly what I needed in seconds. But somewhere along the way, her “process” evolved. Now it apparently involves a bikini and a Margarita by the pool while she “gets in the mood” to make a salad.

I have to admit, she looks good out there, so I find it very difficult to be critical. But the salad doesn’t look any closer to being ready. Emily assures me it’s important to “feel the vibe” before actually making the salad.

So… Happy National Caesar Salad Day. We’ll get that salad photo. Eventually.

Bird Party

I came home the other day to find a bird party in my front yard. A foursome playing cards perhaps.
