Top 5 Food Photography Backgrounds

Last week we talked about how to make your own dark wood stained food photography background/faux table. Last night I finished painting and distressing the other side of these boards – white! – I’ll give you a quick run down of how to get this look on a budget, and talk a bit about my 5 favourite food…

Shakshuka.

I’m sharing dinner with you tonight. My shakshuka, aka: eggs poached in tomato. A brief history of shakshuka from Wikipedia, because I’m quite frankly too lazy to tell you about it.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

This week was the first one we’ve had of temperatures above 15 degrees EVERY DAY. Sunny, warm, and humid. Nobody super loves incredibly humid weather, but I find myself less and less bothered by it.

Poppyseed Cupcakes with Poached Apple Roses

I have nothing much to say today other than the fact that I’m cooking and baking summer-like things today, due to a saddening negative-numbers weather forecast for March. You’re a wishful thinker if you’re a Torontonian expecting any kind of spring. We’re still donning our down jackets and mits up here guys. Make it stop! …
