Some lovely FAQ’s (that even my friends still ask me):

So, do you take all of your photos?

Yup, I do.

What camera do you use?

I have a Canon Rebel T1i. The two lenses I shoot with most often are the Canon F/1.8 –  EF 50mm and the standard 55mm kit lens.

How did you learn photography?

Well, see…that’s a very interesting question. The short answer is – I didn’t. I just bought a good camera which really does a lot of the hard work for me. I think that the only thing I’m semi-okay at is composition but I’m still very much learning all of the rest.

My advice is to just do it. You’ll learn what looks good as you go along. While I do believe there are some technical things that you should know, much of what will eventually develop is your style and that is something that can’t really be taught or learned, it just is.

Where did you learn to cook?

Let’s just say that there is a picture of me somewhere that shows me holding my first batch of date scones at age 5. Also, for the first 22 years of my life, I had an exceptional tutor – my mom. Most days I wish I would have paid more attention to what she taught me. So now, I just spend a lot of time reading about techniques and ingredients. There really is no substitute for simply getting in the kitchen and just doing it.

How do you develop your recipes?

I get inspiration from everywhere. Old cookbooks to recipes I’ve collected along the way, all of it inspires me. Most of the recipes on my blog are bits and pieces of inspiration from all over. If a recipe is not mine, I’ll usually mention it at some point in the post.

When can I expect new posts?

Well, I try to put up at least three new posts a week – Monday, Wednesday and Friday. However, sometimes life gets in the way – a busy weekend, a trip or an insane work week. I know that when I follow a blog, I want to see new content frequently – so I do try to do unto others as I would want done to me. So if you see all three posts – you know all is well but anything less than that,  you know its been a rough week.
