This blog is dedicated to my late grandpa (may he R.I.P. and finally get to eat everything he's ever wanted). When I was younger he use to tell me "eat whatever you can and whatever you want to while you're young because once you're old, like me, you won't be able to eat anything anymore. Your doctors will tell you 'you can't eat this and you can't eat that anymore' and things will all start to taste the same, bland and boring." He use to tell me that when he was young he would want to try new foods, he wanted to explore different cultures through what they ate. But he never splurged on food because he didn't have a lot of money at the time and only bought what he could. He thought that if he continued to save his money one day, when he retired, he would be able to try all the different foods of the world...but then he got sick and was limited on the things he could eat. His words have always stuck with me and that's part of why I take so many pictures of food, to capture the experiences my grandpa never got to fulfill.
With that said, to start off the new year I thought I'd try my hand at something new! What I came up with was creating a blog about something that I am quite passionate about, FOOD! If you know me, you definitely know my love of food and my obsession with taking pictures of what I eat, lol, and if you don't know me...well you'll soon find out ☺. Food is life! It is a tremendous factor that ties every living thing together. No matter the state, country, culture, religion or time period food brings us together. So why wouldn't I be passionate about it ☺. Food is our way of connecting with one another despite our differences!!
