My one year anniversary!!

Posted in Current Affairs, Food and Drink, Weblogs 23 comments

Sometimes it feels I’ve been blogging forever and sometimes it feels I only started it yesterday…. As it turns out today is my one year anniversary in blogging! I almost missed it but was reminded just in time by someone elses anniversary… Looking back over the last 12 months it’s funny to see how it...

Proficiat!
You made very big progress in those years. Sometimes it’s good to look at the old stuff and see the positive difference.
Looking forward to see your innovating foodphotos in the future.

Congratulations – here’s to the next 12 months

Congratulations on the anniversary! I too love looking back occasionally on old food photos – blogging forces you to practice so much that you can really see the changes immediately when you learn something new. Can’t wait to see your photos a year from now!

Happy Anniversary. My one-year will be Christmas day. I could only hope by then to have a better camera even though I”m on my second one now. And, I love love love your photos. I don’t think the candy looked terrible. Just lacked the depth and soul you now show so well in your photos. That’s why I subscribe.

Digigirl - June 11, 2009 - 15:43

Congrats on 1 year! I would have thought you’d been blogging for much longer – your site and pics always look so beautiful. Even that first one isn’t so bad – better than some of mine! Lol. Keep up the great work inspiring us all with your mouth-watering photos.

Happy blog birthday! It’s crazy to see how much progress you can make in one year, right? You are doing an amazing job – I love your site and especially your pictures!

Well I can say that you are one of my best blog friends and I’m happy to celebrate this wonderful blogaversary! I will get out the bubbly right now and down a couple glasses to celebrate! If Ian brings his camera today I will even document it…

Joan Nova - June 12, 2009 - 01:53

We are sometimes too hard on ourselves. You may have enhanced your skills behind the lens, but I think the candy shot is colorful and whimsical and I think many bloggers/readers would agree with me. Congrats on your second anniversary…and keep on keeping on!

Congratulations, Simone. I wish I had you here to help me with my food photography!! And engagement photos, too…
I’m looking forward to your future posts.

I couldn’t believe that your blog is only one year of age. I thought you’ve been several years in blogging and food photography coz the quality of your blog is so admirable. Congrat !!! I’ve been blogging for 10 months with the Vietnamese version of my blog. I’m looking forward to its 1 year anniversary too

Chocolate nougatine with hazelnut praline

Posted in Desserts & other sweets, Food and Drink, Recipes, Weblogs 15 comments

Hmmm…. you know that moment when the visual image of something turns out to be less then the actual food itself? Let me explain; I had been wanting to make the recipe for chocolate nougatine with hazelnut praline from Jo over at Foodjunkie for a while now, but I couldn’t find enough hazelnuts. In the...

Simone, what happened to the layers? Anyway, your photo is lovely as always. You need to roast the hazelnuts first and the skin comes off real easy. In Greece we find them ready roasted, so we never have to do that. BTW I am impressed by how expensive hazelnuts are in general outside of Greece! In London I could not believe my eyes and almost decided against making the dessert, but my friend really wanted it.

Simone (junglefrog) - March 23, 2009 - 12:56

I don’t really know what happened to the layers, but they kind of disappeared! I did make the layers (only two due to the missing caketin problem) but you don’t see them anymore. You can still taste them but not sure where I went wrong.
The hazelnuts were indeed quite expensive; it was 10 euro for the amount that I needed. What would that be in Greece?

Nicole (Sweetie Pie) - March 23, 2009 - 17:47

The hazelnuts are beautiful. Even though they didn’t turn out as expected, they still look totally yummy! I love hazelnuts and chocolate together!

[Reply]

Simone (junglefrog) - March 23, 2009 - 17:51

Thanks Nicole. It was totally yummy as well. It’s a good thing Tom is going to bring the rest to work tomorrow or else we would be eating the entire batch ourselves!!

Olga - March 23, 2009 - 20:36

Love hazelnuts and chocolate: Nutella!!!!!!!!!!!!

This looks really tasty. One trick to making the paste is to keep processing — also, adding a little bit of oil will make the paste smoother. I posted a recipe for praline paste not too long ago.

Culinary Wannabe - March 24, 2009 - 03:49

Sounds like a pretty complicated recipe! The flavors sound spot on though!

Melissa - March 24, 2009 - 04:02

I am not sure if I have ever had anything like this. It looks great! You have some amazing looking recipes and your pictures are beautiful.

Posted in Weblogs No comments

Ok, I admit that it is probably pretty stupid and possible even useless, but…. I just like blogging for some reason and after having tried another weblog I stumpled upon typepad and figured I try it out. So this is my free 14 day trial. It might not last, but I think I might like...
