I got these sandwich bags with bugs on them for my 7 year old nephew who is very much into bugs, insects and other slimy, gross creatures. I knew he would love it! And he did. It makes lunch time a bit more entertaining, well at least for a 7 year old.
Oh and I think Fred products are absolutely genius and so much fun.

My friend and fellow foodie Fatmah from F. Scribbles and I decided to start a Foodie Series on both of our blogs. We will both feature the same people but will post at different times.
Our first feature is Faisal AlNashmi, commonly known as Zubaneen, an aspiring chef and a fresh graduate. I have been following him on Instagram for a while now and what caught my attention is how he recreates traditional dishes in a new and refreshing way, as well his incredible food photography!
We asked him 8 foodie questions and below you’ll find his enthusiastic responses.
1. What do you do on a day to day basis?
I’m currently a freelance cook. My day usually starts at 9 am at the Sultan Center, buying ingredients for the dish I will be testing in the kitchen that day. When I get home and into the main kitchen, this is where the fun begins; sprinkles of flour and smudges of oil all over the countertop. Our cook prays to God that some day I leave this child play. My main goal is to plate the dish when lunch is first served upon my Dad’s arrival. I take it to our garden and start shooting to upload on Instagram (my best friend), then get comments while my family each get a bite. The rest of the day? Well, going through piles of pictures and editing for next day’s upload. Continue reading

This deliciously thick soy milk hot cocoa was perfection. I enjoyed it during my recent trip to Dubai at the Boulevard Cafe located in Almanzil Hotel.
Picture taken by my achingly cool new digital Polaroid camera that has a food setting. Yes, perfect camera for all my travels because I almost exclusively take pictures of food only!
I’m sorry for just posting films these days but there are so many beautifully made food-related mini films that I can’t not share them with you!
This film combines my two favorite activities: eating and traveling. Three guys travelled to 11 countries in 44 days and documented their trip through the food they had. Two other films were also produced: Move and Learn.

The geckos are placed on the cows and once they are there, they can eat all the annoying blowflies. This means that the cows are more stress-free and produce more relaxed milk, which goes to producing better cheese. (link)
Please watch this video produced by Emmentaler Switzerland. I first received a link of this video on April 1st. After viewing the video, I was convinced it was a joke but then I went on their website and they seemed convincing. I was confused. Could this be real? But this is ridiculous and hilarious! Anyway, I’ve been meaning to post it on the blog then but never did. I finally came around to posting it and when I checked the website again to link it here, I found it was an April fool’s joke! Well now that makes a lot of sense!
They even created an event on April 1st for the unveiling. Check out the pictures here.
