Lilandra has been on a campaign for me to buy a DSLR. And it’s true I think I want more than a point and shoot (it’s never a question of NEED when you’re looking at spending several hundred US dollars), but I haven’t had time to do research or think about what I want. So being a true fanatic when it comes to buying gadgets, computers and now cameras, she has been bombarding me with links and reviews and whatnot. And we’ve reached the stage I knew I would reach, where I am ready to buy. But buy what? Her post is a little more detailed as to what we want etc, but we have no photographer people to talk to or stores to visit, so we’re flying blind. Any ideas?

Now I don’t always give in to relentless campaigning and pressure, just in case you were wondering. She never convinced me to buy those Apples.

[…] Or the way TriniFood raises questions and thoughts about our food culture that really make me think and want to know the answers. The development of our foods and tastes are so intrinsically linked to developments in our society, it’s a fascinating subject, even without the recipes. I know it may be her tricky way of getting a reading audience hooked for when she publishes that book, but all the better! And she gets down into the cooking part too. Not to mention backing me for the Nikon!! […]

[…] I’ve never been a huge fan of apples. Except in apple pie. And crumble. I like them. I eat them. I had issues with their water content and the fact that they were always imported and therefore highly prized for the name, or the shiny exterior and the foreignness. Sometimes they seemed more water and skin and no fruitiness. But then I have issues with fruit sometimes. I’m a fussy person sometimes when it comes to food. And I don’t like change. And it’s hard to make decisions that involve spending major amounts of money. Whether or not I can afford it, I’ve been raised to be naturally frugal, at least in outlook. And that makes shopping for new things a hard road. Look how long I took to choose between the Nikon D80 and the Canon Rebel XTI! […]
