It's so easy to whip up a detailed life history of the annoying cashier who jams household cleaner on top of your lettuce. To succinctly outline all the parental influences & progressions of damage that has made them the surly beasts they are today.
So why is it that when it comes to writing a short bio for yourself it takes 2 full days of hair pulling, calling in favours and pepto-swilling?
Attempts to start included:
- Lex - foodie, blogger, x-geek, cheapeater...
- All the influences in her life conspired to make Lex a foodie...
- Lex was raised in a market...
- From bunching beans to dining with dignitaries...
- All her earliest memories involve food...
- Lex started working in the food industry at the age of 5...
- Lex's first pet Rosemary the lamb... also very tasty.
- Food, it's all about exploration...
- Lex's culinary adventures started early one Sunday morning...
I did eventually succeed in getting a bio crafted, and I'll tell you why and where it is once it gets posted.
My thanks to Gerry, M.Tinto, Creampuff & Cyb for all their help getting this done.
oh my. Is writing your own bio not the worst exercise ever? I've recently had to do the same thing for a magazine and it took an agonizingly long time to come up with something I could look at without cringing.
In any case, can't wait to see what it's for!

Ha ha - I do what I can. But I'm very disturbed about this "Rosemary the lamb" business.
