Amateur Photography at its Best...

The best foodal moments I have are definitely with my sister, Hungrier Jemma.

It perhaps shouldn't be that surprising that Hungrier Jemma shares a love for food, and takes numerous photos of food at every opportune moment. I first realised this a few years ago, when I took her to the Nag's Head in Chichester for a carvery. Man, that opened my eyes to just how Hungry she really is!

The above photo was taken by Hungrier Jemma's fiance, Steven - who in fact, might as well be known as Hungry Steven also. It must have been a really odd sight for others in the restaurant to see Steven take a photo of us taking photos of our food!

We were at a pub restaurant called The Pigs in Norfolk (which, by the way, I thought was called 'Porkys' and got confused about why I couldn't find it online just now).

Here's the actual shot I took:

The Pigs pork, apple and sage burger, Smoked Norfolk Dapple, thick cut back bacon, baby gem, roasted garlic mayo, toasted English muffin, Summer slaw, apple chutney, hand cut chips cooked in beef dripping

Man, those chips were collosal. Yes, you only get a few, and yes, both my sister and I thought it was a bit stingy. But of course, our greedy eyes didn't comprehend that they are in actual fact the size of fat potato wedges really!

I love hanging out with my sister and her fiance because whatever we do, it always seems to centre around food (or dance films, but that's another story). They had come to visit me in Chi for a couple of days, before I followed them back up to Norfolk - not in a stalkerish way, mind, I was invited to stay. For the most part of that long weekend, the word most uttered was 'Beercan' - as in trying to say 'bacon' like a Jamaican without making it sound like 'beer can'.

(You just had a go at that, didn't you?)

So that's pretty much how the whole weekend went, shouting 'beercan' and taking lots of photos. I'm no professional photographer by any means, but there must be some art form in finding Kodak moments that'll get you smiling, right? ;-)

crazy chips! that must've been a blast. Impressive way to serve them - in a big mug.

although I'd prefer a pint in it.

The rate they were going at it, Dan, it looked all the world like they were downing it like a pint!
