Today I
am not going to talk about my blog or anything beauty related apart
from a really beautiful person. Today I want to tell you about
Veritas Ex Gustu or Veg as you might know her. Veg is a 9 year old
girl living in the UK who writes what can only be described as a food
blog. She is in fact a connoisseur of school dinners! And I would
like to share her blog with you all today.
So the
idea of her blog is to show the world, or who ever wants to know,
what she has had for dinner at school that day and I have to say I
can not stop reading it! However it is not just me that this
unassuming, simple blog has had an effect on, this little lady has
gone viral – meaning: massive on the web. And as with most things
that have a massive following this has not been without criticism.
The Local Authority/Council actually banned Veg from taking photos of
her school dinners. But in true internet form (and honestly Argyll
and Bute Council do you live in a cupboard and not understand
the internet at all!) the peoples of the internet answered! They
answered with a petition, emails, liking/favoriting/sharing etc, in
their droves and guess what happened? BAN REVOKED!
Now I
have to apologise for the small rant that is ensues below.
Argyll
and Bute Council and in fact councils in general let this be a
lesson to you. You try to sensor a 9 year old girl, a 9 year old
girl are you kidding me!. That btw does not say her school
dinners are poop. From taking some pics of her dinners and making a
blog, which by the way you have just helped publicise to Viral
status. REALLY? You would really do this? I wonder why? Is it
because you secretly know your school dinners are inadequate? If so
why not do something about that instead?.
Wow as you can see this has really had an effect on me, maybe I need
a little rest!
End of
rant.
So back
to what I really want to say about this blog. It is truly amazing! I
read this blog and think this how amazing the internet is that is can allow a
9 year old girl to express her view to the world, that truly astounds
me. And Veg even though I have already commented on your blog posts I
wanted you, and the people that read my little blog, to know that I
think you are amazing! You have the drive, passion and sheer talent
at such a young age to produce a blog that is so well written and
well produced. I honestly love it. I love reading what you have had
for dinner (and maybe making a judgement or two on it lol) and I love seeing
the school dinners from all around the world. I want to say thank you
so much for creating your blog, it has given me many hours of reading
pleasure and I hope you continue (for ever for me) or for as long as
it makes you happy.
And guys I am not
going to say “if you want to check out Veg's blog” because I know
you will want to! Instead I am going to say click the link below to
be amazed and delighted by the pure genius of this amazing girl.
