Wendy's Flatbread Asiago Ranch + Indiana Jones (you will love it!)

When presented with the opportunity to help spread the word about Wendy's latest #6SecondsFlat $6,000 sweepstakes, I couldn't jump at the chance quickly enough!  The only requirement is/was to make a vine video (or Instagram) featuring one of their flatbread sandwiches (available only for a limited time.)

Um, videos?  Yes.  If you want to get a feel for how much I love the creative aspect of creating and producing extremely short films, checkout out my short films on YouTube.  With much enthusiasm, excitement and laughter, I roped my Father and brother into helping me out with this.  I didn't even give The Mr a choice (he loves me, so he doesn't mind right?)  I also begged and pleaded with my sister to get her husband to record the soundtrack (I asked for ragtime Indiana Jones, lol!  I mean, 15 seconds is.....not very much time.)

Without further ado, I present the latest Triple P short film:



I have to tell you all that I am not a fan of dressings.  I don't eat mayonnaise, or Miracle Whip, or mustard or anything else in that family.  I am extremely picky about my ranch dressings.  I do however, love bacon.  And chicken.  And bacon.  Did I already say that? lol.  I was worried I would take that first bite and gag.......

Nope.  I just wanted to eat the rest of it.  It took a lot of self control to re-wrap it and take it out to my dying Father (I jest. Did you see the film?! lol)  It is a seriously delicious sandwich.  That is my personal opinion, all sponsorships aside.  Now get your wheels a-turning and crank out a fun video for those #6SecondsFlat sweepstakes!  And do me a favor - along with the hashtag #6SecondsFlat, include #triplep6 so I know you entered (thanks!)

This post brought to you in part by Wendy's #6SecondsFlat $6,000 sweepstakes, my own creative genius (bahahaha) and with the help of the Charles Andrews III family, the Charles Andrews IV family, the Joslyn family and Instagram (thank goodness they let us upload videos now!!)

Instagram for Android: InstaDroid

That's right.  Instagram is now available for Android (I know, old news already, and it's not quite as cool as the Apple version.)  I've seen lots of helpful posts from Apple Instagrammers, kindly giving us Drioders pointers and tips on how to take, edit, enhance and generally make beautiful our Android photos.  I appreciate that they are trying to help; it's like new mothers who just have to impart their new found wisdom to you......

So, I thought I would condescendingly kindly offer up some of the free apps I use on Android (don't confuse my love for photography - and Instagram - for any expertise in the matter.)  I'm also going to sneak tie in Fat Mum Slim's #photoaday initiative.

Let's start with some highlights from the #MarchPhotoADay:

This photo encompasses a lot: #smiles, #something we wore, #someone we talked to, #green, #delicious, #an animal (he's grabbing my butt.....eye roll,) this man has the #key to my heart (it's okay, even I rolled my eyes as I typed that,) his #name.

13.  Yes please.  My most favorite #sign in the entire world.  

15. Sometimes I hide in the #car so I don't have to share my cookies. 

19. This is most likely only #funny to my siblings.  My father.  Texting.  In church.  (GASP)

and my discreet attempt to capture it.

25. What I wish I were eating for #breakfast.

 29. #feet. Me and my three sons.

Now to those Android Apps.  My personal favorite is Vignette (I bought the full version for high resolution photos - you can get around this by importing a photo instead of using the vignette camera.) 

	Vignette	Camera Fun	Magic Hour	Camera360	LittlePhoto	FXCamera	PicsArt	PicSay	PhotoGrid
Import photos	X	X		X*	X	X	X	X*	X
Camera function	X	X	X	X	X	X	X

Platform Sharing	X	X	X	X	X	X	X	X	X

My top picks are LittlePhoto, PicsArt and Vignette (but the Camera360 has the tiltshift the Android Instagram is missing!)  I will use LittlePhoto for one adjustment, import it into PicsArt and then finish it up in Vignette.  Do you have a favorite app (or more) that you like to use?

You can find me on Instagram @_TripleP, and you can join in on the official #photoadayApril here.
