Determined to take a food photo

A few days ago I saw the Pioneer Woman's tutorial on food photography and her contest for the best food photos.  I really wanted to participate.  However, I have encountered a problem:  the time of day that I normally cook does not jive with the time of day when the lighting in my kitchen is the best.  So, in an effort to thwart my perfectionism (another "determination"), I am submitting this photo anyway.  (I wonder if it gets me extra points that the beef stew in the crock pot is actually the Pioneer Woman recipe and the post processing is her "Seventies" action with an added "Quick Burn the Edges"?) 

Here is the link for the photo assignment:

  1. I really like the PP on this one. Funny you were not excited about it. To me it has the late evening meal feel to it.
