By my own confession I'm a bit of a social media junkie. I started on Facebook but it was when I discovered Twitter that I was really smitten. I knew about Instagram but never really "got" it however in the last six months or so I've fallen completely in love with it. My own feed is a mixture of colour, vintage, gin, Scotland, quirky and of course food. Sometimes my posts are random but I also love taking part in Instagram challenges. My favourite is the weekly #capturingcolour run by Capture by Lucy, however in March I've also been doing English Mum Dot Com's #foodiephotoaday This blog post shares some of my recent favourites and also includes an Instagram pic and accompanying recipe for one of my favourite ways of cooking fish. Cream Crackers beat Ruskoline hands down.

Oooh, I LOVE your Instagram feed! I've become a real IG addict of late too - just adore getting out there and finding cool shots to take. xx
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm now always on the lookout for something that will look good in a square.
DeleteOnly come to your IG feed relatively recently but I love your photos - especially this edit. I'm a bit addicted myself now (instagram.com/mummytravels)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Now following you on Instagram too.
DeleteThese are so pretty, I can't believe I wasn't following you on instagram before! It's always nice to find some other people that love foodie instas, I think a lot of my 'irl' friends are pretty sick of mine now but I just love it! :) Is that aprons in the bottom picture? they're so pretty :) x

ReplyDeleteUsing cream crackers for fish fingers - now why did I not think of that before? They look very tasty! Thanks for linking up with #CookBlogShare
Thanks Lucy! The cream crackers work really well. Someone on my Facebook page has recommended pretzels so that will be my next fishy experiment.
DeleteThe fish fingers look delicious and I love your pictures x #recipeoftheweek
ReplyDeleteThank you! Posh fish fingers #recipeoftheweek

ReplyDeleteThere are definitely worse things than Instagram that we could be addicted to #FoodieFriday
DeleteI LOVED this #foodiephotoaday too Claire, although I missed some days! GREAT recipe and thanks for linking up! Karen
ReplyDeleteI started off with really good intentions for #foodiephotoaday but missed quite a few along the way. Fab challenge though and great to see others interpretations of each days theme.
