Pretty not delicious

Daily writing prompt
What job would you do for free?

If money wasn’t an issue, as in, I did not need it to survive, AND I had an ounce of creativity in my bones, I’d love to be a foodie.

To travel and eat all kinds of delicious foods in different corners of the world and blog or vlog about it.

Imagine eating and traveling for a living?! What a dream.

One of my favourite Instagram accounts, (prior to deactivating my IG), was @wpgeats. They’re a young couple who also have other fulltime jobs I believe, but they are always posting about different places in and around Winnipeg to eat. They also travel the world and blog/vlog about the super yummy food they find. The photos they take of these meals make it all look so good. They’re adorable and so talented.

Having said that, after eating restaurant food for the last week while on vacation, I’m very much looking forward to cooking in my own kitchen. Best thing I ate was a seafood linguine dish, the scallops were to die for. Also, we ate a lot of really good calamari out there.

The worst? Probably the second day I ordered eggs benny. It looked pretty and the hollandaise was delicious but the English muffin had been replaced by a thick slice of yam, which wasn’t my favourite and the crabcake on this one was a bit too fishy for my taste. Did I say it was pretty? It was pretty. But not delicious.

    1. Totally!! And I wouldn’t have minded some yam within the dish, I just didn’t realize it was replacing the English muffin 🤷🏻‍♀️

  4. I do like yam. But I’m trying to wrap my head around an eggs Benedict with yam in place of an English muffin. I feel like a comic strip with a huge question mark above my head.

      1. I’ll be honest though. My curiosity might have gotten the best of me and would have ordered it. Where else in the world would this be on the menu? Might as well go for it!
