About Me



Helloooo there! I'm Jane. I didn't always have an obsession with food, not until I was forced to cook for myself in my freshmen year of university. I give credit to my cousin for helping me discover that food is more than just eating. To me food is something that I nurture, celebrate, share and associate good and bad memories with.

So I cooked and baked my heart out during my university years, learning through trial and error. I studied both my textbooks and cookbooks. I was lucky to be living in Montreal at the time, a city perfumed with the smells of fresh yeasty bread, melting chocolate and amazing cheese. I live in Toronto now and when I’m not photographing or eating, I work as a dietitian and I love it. I have been published in Acquired Taste and received an  Honourable Mention for the Digital Photo Contest for Doors Open Ontario. I am looking for more opportunities!

I’d love to hear from you. Please feel free to email me: thebutteredup@gmail.com

  1. Hi, Jane! I found your blog a while ago (don't remember where), and I love it! Beautiful recipes and photos. I must say, I go to bed thinking about breakfast, too, as a fellow food blog junkie! It's always great meeting other foodie friends that are as obsessed with food. Hope you'll check out my blog: http://www.paoequeijo.typepad.com
