I suggest that you make the layout, the fonts, and everything else simpler if you are planning to earn a little money with your blog. There are too many colors that are not friendly to the readers. The look-and-feel is also very girly which may not attract male readers as much. Stay neutral. The images look fine when you enlarge them but I wonder how you get to enjoy your meal when you take time capturing photos. unsure.gif

If you eat out more than 50% of the time, you should consider hiring a reliable cook who can prepare good food with fresh ingredients. My sister-in-law in New Jersey has an Indian cook who goes to her house everyday to make tasty meals. You can also sign up for cooking classes. I know you are not asking for advice but I've been there. When I moved to the US, my husband and I lived in Santa Monica. He is not a fan of Filipino food and that was all I knew how to cook back then. We would eat out most of the time and since he's never liked fastfood, we'd end up spending $25 to $150 per meal for only the two of us. Thanks to Yelp. It was fun at first but I decided to learn how to cook other stuff and I grew more satisfied. It took several months for things to get better but I was determined to be in control of what we eat, knowing that the food on our table is made with organic and seasonally fresh ingredients, not drenched in unhealthy oil and butter, not fried or microwaved, and handled with impeccable hygiene. You can order almost anything in a restaurant and not realize you had excessive sugar, fat, and caffeine intake. I hope you don't wait to grow several sizes more than what you're wearing right now before you start eating healthier. luv.gif

if you are missing curry laksa and nasi lemak, is very easy to hire a malaysian cook for private meals, cook in advance, in SF.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

Thanks for the advice. This blog is just for fun. I don't plan to earn money with my blog. I just want to give people suggestion where to eat good food in SF. I don't think hiring a cook is a wise thing to do since it is only 2 of us. I think it is much cheaper eating outside than hiring a cook.

Taking a cooking class sound good, but I'm not a good cook. I tried to cook once a while, but it never turn out the way I want it to be. The smell of the dish is correct, but the taste :no:

I go to college from Monday to Friday and I usually just buy fruits for breakfast and salad for lunch from whole foods. Whole foods is next to my college. I ate my lunch after 2 pm and I usually don't feel hungry until the next day. I only ate outside on the weekends. I know eating outside is not that healthy, but I did bikram yoga once or twice a week to maintain my weight. Living in SF makes me more particular about my health because everybody is a health freak :D
