STUFF, About Me...

Incase you don't have the immense pleasure of knowing me!

1) I am very sarcastic :)
2) I'm am A LOT of fun
3) I love good food and wine
4)  I have been blessed to travel, eat and drink well in my 42 fabulous years of living
5) I AM Canadian...but havn't lived in the country most of my life, I have never lived in Newfoundland. I spent the last 12 years in San Francisco.
6) I've been in Newfoundland since Sept 2012...not long
7) I do love it here, people are great, great food scene, lots of exciting things happening for sure
8) I am not a writer or reviewer. I'm just a foodie. So don't expect me to wax poetically about all the dishes, I will add extra info when i have it...less when i don't. I am not here to critique so much as just have fun, show some pics...really its all about me entertaining myself ;) So if you want to come along for the ride...sweet as ;) But I don't think I'm "all that and a bag of chips" ;) When in doubt please always refer back to item #1.
