Having the right gear makes it easier and much more fun too. Holly, Ahhh. I see why you'd have to be super-careful. Thanks, Rashny. I'm pleased to hear that! I do plan to keep it up, so there'll be more coming up. Robert, No worries, thank you for your honesty. Well, given that people have such different tastes and different ideas for how cook and serve food, I wouldn't expect everyone to love every single post. I just eat what I want to eat, photograph it and write about it. Everyone's free to like or dislike the posts. If there's enough dislike I suppose they'll find some other blog that is more to their taste(s). I don't actually see my family that often these days, which is why there aren't so many feasts - but you'll be pleased to see the Chinese New Year dinner post coming up soon. I can't make any promises about more cat photos, but if I happen to take any I think are worth posting, I will do so. :) Thanks, Lisa. I don't think I'd make it as a cartoonist but it's nice that you think so. dea,

Personal preference. I reel (and not in a good way) whenever I see Spam featured in a dish. Again, personal preference rears its ugly mug. Those minor issues aside, I can tell you I have loved your blog since I first discovered it. Can't get enough of the family gathering (holiday/birthday/etc.) fotos and food descriptions. I grow greener and greener with envy each time I see pictures of the varied luches you have available to you. And the picture-perfect dinners, well. "Nile perch?" I feel positively deprived! Oh, I do have another complaint, after all. Too few kitty pics. More kitty pics, please! Best health and happiness in the New Year.

I hate spitting out grape seeds, and anyway the seedless red grapes are more crunchy than the seed-full ones, and hence, more tasty. i’m a sucker for those red seedless grapes too.

If I'm perfectly honest, though, I must admit I don't think much about the bad things in overseas fish. I figure as long as I eat a bit of everything rather than too much of anything, I'll be ok. BTW, it's not actually a pasta salad - it was a hot pasta dish, so the onion was cooked. There was a lot of it - I saw J's pile of onion when she got to the end of her lunch. :) Holly,

Lots of onion isn't good though - raw onion always gives me the worst indigestion! TFP - aren't you a little wary of buying imported fish due to differnt country's food safety regulations (or lack of them)? I always avoid it and try to get Australian or NZ fish. (I may have been watching too much Today Tonight... but am interested in your opinion.) That pasta salad looks so yummy – I’m a sucker for anything creamy.
