This was a very new area for me but I was eager to learn a new skill and have fun at the same time.  I started my blog solely on food, as I was eating a lot and always taking photos of what I eat for Instagram. Over the past few years, I have lowered that to 60% food with 40% for everything else e.g products, travel etc…this means I can have a little variety to what I do.//

I am also inspired by my beautiful daughter Serena, though this isn't a mommy blog, so there won't be recommendations for prams and high chairs etc.// (last updated 2014)
