Blog Questions

What’s your blog about?
My blog is about living well.

Do you photograph and post everything you eat?
Yes, pretty much. Sometimes though, I don’t have my camera handy but you can be sure that I mention what I ate during that meal or snack. I make an effort to photography everything I eat but sometimes that’s just not possible. On those occasions, I might not have a photograph but I will give a description of what was included in my meal or snack. I don’t photograph beverages since I’m drinking something pretty much all day. My beverages usually include a morning coffee and water throughout the day. Sometimes, I will have a diet soda if I feel like something a little fuzzy.

How often do you update your blog?
I update my blog on a daily basis. Sometimes more if I have something I feel is worth sharing.
