Stolen Pictures & Stolen Dreams
(Or how I became a food blogger with zero food photos of my own.)
Yeah. That’s me.
One day, I was a physics expert, calculating trajectories and acceleration.
The next?
I was accelerating straight into a pile of spices, chasing the perfect recipes and burning my hands in boiling oil, which all started with the support, love and co-ownership of my brother.
And now? Now, I have a food blog. A loud, dramatic, emotional, slightly chaotic food blog.
But there’s a problem.
☝ I never took pictures.
☝ Not a single photo.
☝ Not even a blurry, slightly burnt, maybe-too-close-up shot of my disasters.
Because back then, I didn’t know I’d fall in love with cooking. I didn’t know I’d one day sit here, typing away, wishing I had proof that I once made the best homemade dishes 😋(and also that one disastrous bread incident we don’t talk about).
So, what do I do now?
I borrow pictures from the internet. Or, if i may rephrase it 👀 - 'I respectfully, desperately, and slightly guiltily borrow pictures from the internet'.

I am at the mercy of strangers 🙏who, thankfully, took the time to photograph their food like professional artists.
But one day… ONE DAY, I will be ready 😎.
💛 I will roll up my sleeves 💪. I will face the camera.
💛 I will capture every spice, every splatter, every heartbreak, and every victory 💪.
💛 And this blog—this spicy, emotional, rollercoaster of a blog— 💪 will have its own original pictures .
Until then… 🙏 Google Images, please don’t fail me. 😆
