Happy Birthday – Food for Swaps turns TWO!!

Happy Birthday to you… Happy Birthday to you… Happy Birthday dear FoodforSwaps…. Happy Birthday to you! So we enter our terrible two’s today 🙂  I must say, the journey has been supremely fulfilling. What started out as a way to document all the things I tried out in the kitchen has now turned into something that inspires me to try out things! It gives me a space to play out my food obsession and my photography. It’s my little window to the world of foodies – you guys, who stop by the blog and send me little words of praise, encouragement and new ideas. So today, I just want to leave you a comment – Thank you for rocking this party for so long! I have a few additions to the blog, to mark the anniversary. An ‘About’ page – yes I know, I do like to wax eloquent. And a ‘Food Blog searcher’ – more foodies more fun! So enjoy and keep stopping by!

Happy 2011!

Agreed we all overindulge during the holidays and why not? It’s the season to be jolly 🙂  I was away on holiday in Sri Lanka and trust me, even if you tried, you can’t stop overindulging. Sun, Sand, Surf … all add up to an atmosphere of blissful overeating. Add to it beers and wines and cocktails and you could really be in a glutton’s heaven. (MY heaven to be precise!) So without much adieu I wish you a wonderful 2011, filled with all things good and blissful and lipsmackingly awesome! P.S. Some seafood that I lovingly shoved my face with …

Muesli and my new Canon 500D

I know this has nothing to do with food… but considering I just upgraded from my old kodak of 5 years ( I know I know.. tsk tsk.. practically a fossil) I can’t help but gloat. No food pics on this post.. just one of my darling baby Muesli. (Yes, I named my cat after cereal! But what do you expect from a foodie?!) Hopefully I can turn out some better pictures with this one… Wish me luck!
