Description:
This is the second round of an International swap for anyone looking for a inexpensive yet interesting swap! Give someone else a glimpse into your life! Your days may seem boring to you, but they are certainly going to be interesting to another person. Are you the next Masterchef or have a Kitchen that Rules?? Each day for a week, you will take 1 digital photo of foods you have prepared for lunch/dinner/ or dessert. You will send your partner: One email containing 7 photographs in total (1 for each day of the week) A brief description of each photograph including the date it was taken. Please rename the title of each photograph to the date it was taken, for example 'Saturday 2nd Feb'. Then in the e-mail please write the date of the photographs and the description: Saturday 2nd Feb - My Apple Crumble! etc Please also include a short paragraph telling your partner what foods you enjoy, and love to cook. Photographs can be taken with digital camera/mobile phone/ipad, but they MUST BE TAKEN BY YOU (no downloading someone else's stuff and calling it your own). Photos can be in colour or black and white, it is sender's choice, but for this round I suggest colour. Please don't forget to write the name of the swap and your username within the email. This helps your partner rate you correctly. I don't think I need to say it but no nudity or vulgar photos and no photographs of children's faces please. No Newbies with less than 5 swaps completed with no ratings or less than 5 ratings. No recent 1's or 3's for whatever reason. I will ban people if need be. ENJOY

hi,i was wondering if you could take pictures of breakfast? and can we start with the week now?

Dang I don't cook every day - so will need to pass! Sounds fun though! ;)

@faye411 yeah that is fine if you want to include breakfast. Here we usually have cereal, not an exciting photo for me!! LOL!!! Sure start taking photos now, rules are super strict, as long as you have made the meals and there are 7 photos.

@Vickyen start taking photos now, you might have enough by the time comes to sending.

Lol... what if it's a photo of a hot pocket I cooked in the microwave? ;)

Just kidding... I will sit this one out!! I like to cook sometimes but I really don't do it every day :)

@charophyta as long as you took the photo, hey why not a pic of a hot pocket?! I'm not anal about the photos must be taken each day, which is why the swap is open for two weeks (I do realise that people do have lives and may not be able to take a photo each day). Like I said above, if you'd like to start taking photos now that is ok.

@faye411 I just re-read my post to you, I meant to say rules are NOT super strict. I shouldn't type while bouncing a baby on my lap and trying to fend off her hands at the keyboard!!!

I don't technically cook most of my evening meals as I have a carer come and do it - and they're only allowed to use the microwave for health & safety reasons. Is this okay, or should I sit this one out?

porcelain72 02/24/2013 #

My partner does the majority of the cooking, as long as I mention that in the e-mail does that still qualify?

danushaj 02/24/2013 #

@TamaraEpps and @porcelain72 I would love for you both to participate. This swap is about having fun, so please sign up.

I mearly didn't want people ripping photos from websites saying "this is what I cooked", Tamara, I hope your carer is a great cook, it would be wonderful to see her microwave creations. And Porcelain72 my hubby occassionally cooks too, it is only fair to share the load!!!
