An orgy of food…

By on July 28, 2013

July is National Culinary Arts month. Just the saying aloud the words ‘culinary arts’, one would automatically think of decadent entrΓ©es and art worthy meals that take your breath away let alone give your senses on an unforgettable culinary voyage.

 
However instead of divine and palatable dishes (similar to the pics shown above), what has been catching the attention of millions of people worldwide is a new and ever growing epidemic. An epidemic that has people trying to utilize an insane amount of meats (especially bacon) and other food related concoctions and then placing them all together for one outrageously huge meal.

Now if this sounds confusing don’t worry, because I was just as confused when I first heard about it…It’s this notion where shock value is primordial and truth be told it actually works. When I first started looking at some of the videos that certain websites like ‘Epic Meal’ put out, I was shocked to say the least and mesmerized by the fact that people have taken the time to come up with these outrageous meals. The time and hilarious thought process that it took to formulate these recipes is something else for sure.

If you have never seen some of these videos, you are in for one hell of shock. I say shock because the amount of food and lets not forget the calorie count that these meals possess is astronomical. I normally don’t bother knowing about such trivial details but when the calorie count reaches into the TENS OF THOUSANDS….then you’ve got my attention!

**For those weak at heart…well this is your warning of the meat orgy that is about to take place should you press PLAY.

From one meat lover to another,

A year ago this week, I was enjoying some bath time while in @discoverdominica πŸ–πŸπŸ˜
.
Dominica's lush scenery is extraordinary, and I'm grateful to have been invited to visit their beautiful island😊😊
.
Visiting Wotten Waven Sulphur Springs was perfect to relax and rid of some unwanted stress. And the outdoor bath surrounded by all that green landscape was simply the BEST! An unforgettable experience! 🀩
.
Dominica's adventure activities - diving, snorkeling, hiking, kayaking, swimming - are just some of the many ways to enjoy this tropical island.πŸ€ΏπŸ™‚

Put Dominica on your travel list. You'll love it!!❀️❀️

Who doesn't love fireworks?! πŸŽ† πŸŽ‡ 
With a view like this, im completely on board😍😍

Year after year, @grandsfeuxducasino puts on an incredible show, where various countries compete in the juried pyromusical show.
On this particular evening, I happen to be at the right place to watch Italy perform their magic!βœ¨οΈπŸŽ†

What more could you ask for when you have breathtaking fireworks displayed in the backdrop of the stunning @natgallerycan as it illuminates the night sky? And let's not forget to mention Ottawa's famous spider sculpture, which adds that extra something to any photo. πŸ•·πŸ•Έ
