FAQ

What kind of camera do you use? 
I use a Canon EOS Rebel T3i.

Can I use one of your photos on my own blog? 
All photos on this blog are property of Let's Live La Vida. You may not use one of my photos on your blog without emailing me for permission beforehand. I may make an exception depending on the specific situation. 

What inspired the name of your blog? 
          Growing up in a large Armenian-American family, food served as the center piece of all of our celebrations. Some of my fondest memories include sitting at the dinner table for hours with loved ones, talking and laughing while savoring a homemade meal. Whenever my family and I travel, the restaurants/bakeries/ice cream shops we visit largely shape our experience. Years months following a trip, we still reminisce about some our best meals. 
          I decided to name my blog "Let's Live La Vida" or "Let's Live Life" because I believe in living every day to its fullest, and good food is an integral part of enjoying life.

Do you have any advice for new bloggers? 
Cheesy as it sounds, my best advice to a new blogger is to be yourself. While I encourage you to gain inspiration from more experienced bloggers, do not let others influence your vision. Your blog should reflect who you are as a person--your personality, passions, and interests--not replicate someone else's site exactly. Do not obsess over making everything perfect from the beginning, and recognize that you will make mistakes, learn, and grow along the way.

What is the best thing you've ever baked? 
This is such a hard question, because there are so many! Some of my all-time favorites include these chocolate chip cookies, this soufflé cake, and this citrus-poppyseed cake. Head on over to the recipe index for more amazing finds. ;)

What was your biggest kitchen fail? 
When my younger sister and I were in elementary school, we decided to surprise our mother with a homemade pasta dinner. I squeezed an entire tube of tomato paste into the sauce and cooked the pasta until it was the consistency of baby food. We still laugh about that meal today. 

If you had to choose three foods to eat for the rest of your life, what would they be? 
Sushi, chocolate, and grapes.
