My parents didn’t drink, gamble or do drugs. Their vices were travelling and eating well. And so the allure was handed down. I will, as the name of my blog suggests, pretty much eat anything.
I’m partial to meats but will suffer fruits and vegetables.
I started this blog in 2005 because I would take pictures of food while travelling and then come home and wonder what to do with them all. It’s a part chronicle to amuse myself and a part guide to share the foods and sights I’ve encountered from around the world.
It’s evolved now to include restaurant reviews closer to home (Calgary Richmond,B.C.) because sadly, I can’t travel all the time.
If you’re wondering who Jason is, he’s my very patient husband. He lets me take shots of whatever he orders, but the rule is I only get three attempts before he jumps in with his fork/chopsticks/hands.
In August 2010, I had a baby boy who changed not only our lives, but also my eating and blogging life. That’s when I started adding notes on how child-friendly a restaurant is, for parents like me who don’t believe kids should only experience fast food when dining out.
My day job is in media, usually detailing death and destruction, so this is a bit of a respite. I’ve been doing more freelance writing of late on food, lifestyle and parenting. (Am I for hire? You bet!)
I’ve been asked why I don’t write about recipes or cooking. It’s not that I don’t love to cook, but there are far too many blogs that cover that much better than I ever could.
I dedicate this to people who love to eat, and find art in their meals. If this blog piques your interest at least once, then I’m happy as a goldfish that eats til it explodes.
I’m still trying to master my Canon EOS Rebel XTi, but pretty much use my iPhone camera most of the time now that I’m holding a toddler in the other hand. I used to use a trusty Casio Exilim EX Z3 3.2 megapixel point-and-shoot.

Happy eating!
