My family reminds me to take photos of food now – they're more into it that I am, haha!!

By the way, I LOVE Calvin & Hobbes.

Krista October 9, 2008 at 5:52 pm

hahhaa…my ex used to say that when we would go out to restaurants, “do you need to take a picture of my food or can i eat?”

#2 when you decide eat-out spots on restaurants you have not reviewed before.

Michele October 9, 2008 at 6:35 pm

I haven’t had a hot meal since I started food blogging.

Maybe sad? But VERY true!!

I swear, some of my friends hate eating out with me :x

Sues

Nick October 9, 2008 at 7:39 pm

Very true. Unfortunately I usually find myself asking that same question. Especially when I’m taking pictures of a hot or cold dish that is at it’s optimal eating temperature while I’m taking pictures. I keep telling myself how good it looks and how hungry I am but my finger just wants to keep pressing that button in case I don’t get a good shot.

HAHA – I love it Megan!! so true

Jonathan W October 9, 2008 at 8:21 pm

Lol that is so true my wife used to get so embarresed when we went to a nice place and I would bring in the camera but now she is hooked as well and we do the blog together and more often than not shes reminding me to take the shot :)

Kath October 9, 2008 at 8:22 pm

Wandering Coyote October 9, 2008 at 10:05 pm

Yep, ain’t it the truth?

HoneyB October 9, 2008 at 10:14 pm

Yeah, Grumpy really was losing his patience when I was taking photos of his meatball sub I made recently. He was making threats. lol

That Girl October 9, 2008 at 11:42 pm

Luckily no one who I eat with knows about my blog other than my husband. And he’s pretty patient with me.

allenooi October 12, 2008 at 7:17 pm

Timeless Gourmet October 26, 2008 at 9:53 am

There I am – faint with hunger – nothing can stop me from taking my 50 pix……lucky me to have first of all: stamina to do it,second of all friends who understand and can wait for the goodies I produce! The worst was the live 20# Sriper on the cutting board waiting for his dimise……
