One of my favorite things about being a food blogger is being able to attend Food Blogging Conferences.<\/p>\n
We are typically pampered with tons of delicious food and don’t feel judged when we pull out our iPhone to snap a few pictures of it. While I have had some hairy experiences with a past Foodie Conference<\/a> {you’ll want to read that story sometime}<\/em>, this conference was full of excitement, but no police involved this time.<\/p>\n Last weekend I flew to San Francisco to attend the FoodBuzz Fest. My flight was delayed 2 hours due to fog, so I did what most would do with two extra hours on their hands… I tweeted, played Cut The Rope, and also people watched.<\/p>\n I love people watching, especially at airports and malls. It’s fascinating.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When I finally made it to San Francisco it was a bit of a culture shock to say the least. I hopped on one train to a subway system, and then rode an escalator up to one of the busiest streets I’d ever seen. Then I walked briskly across the street while a man turned around and started following me, who then proceeded to ask me, “Why are you following me?”\u00a0{huh??}<\/em><\/p>\n I quickly found a cab and threw my luggage inside and was off!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I met up with some great blogging friends where we had a great time playing around with food. Then we waited for about 30 minutes to find another taxi to take us back to our hotel. We finally decided to just walk the 1.6 miles back.<\/p>\n Luckily I had a few friends with me this time because we walked through some real sketchy neighborhoods where I clutched onto my iPhone with all my might.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
