Beautiful Blog

No, not mine.

I thought I’d be using my time wisely during the Chinese New Year break to catch up on some seriously back-logged blogging. But no. Between stuffing my face and sleeping in, I’ve been secretly watching a lot of food porn. I have a short attention span and a one track mind - but I stopped dead in my cyber-tracks when I came across this site.

My words are not going to do justice to Keiko’s blog - www.nordljus.co.uk. View it for yourself and you’ll see for yourself why I’m even bothering to write this blog post at 3:03 am on a Saturday night. And no, it’s not because I don’t have a life.

The simple lay out of the site is spot on. Her writing lets her sensitivity and gentle impartialness shine through. She never gushes about a popular ingredient or dish like many a food blogger I know. Praise is awarded where it’s needed and is heartfelt. The photographs are not only gorgeous, but Keiko is also one of the few fellow food bloggers with such amazing talent who openly shares information on the cameras she uses and the techniques she employs to create such results. From the comments, I could see that she’s been asked such questions times again but she always responds willingly and with humility. I haven’t seen a blog as inspiring as hers in a very long time.

Keiko, if you are ever reading this - here’s a quick shout to you in my rusty 日本語.　おいかわさん、ブログは本当にすばらしいです。写真も私に深い感銘を与えた。よくアップデートして下さいね！
