When I first created this website, I wrote an oh-so-serious and ridiculously long monologue all about me, catty and the life that is mine. Because yes, I can talk about myself. I didn’t really re-read it until now, and am floored at how ridiculously effin’ boring my life has been, up until the minute I started this blog (because yes, life alters when you have a day by day catalogue of any- and-everything you consume).
So I’ve scrapped the monologue and instead jumped on the Top Three List bandwagon, which is a much simpler, and a much better way of getting to know me.
Here goes!

Some of the photos from this blog have been featured on TasteSpotting and Foodgawker, and MSN Food UK and Metrotwin have also had pieces of me. If you want to work with me, contact me 
All photos in this blog are taken by me, unless otherwise stipulated. I used Canon Digital IXUS870 IS until November 2009, when I upgraded to a Canon PowerShot s90. My camera is my baby and best friend, but this is now being challenged by my iPhone4s, which also takes amazing photos.
Please also note that I have had no formal training in writing about food, talking about food or even eating food. I write, talk and eat purely because it brings me joy
