ABOUT LOU
Hi there, I’m Louisa, but you can call me Lou. Welcome to Living Lou, my own little space here on the Internet. I’m a 19 year old food blogger from Toronto, Ontario and I love every second of it! I have been completely smitten with cooking and baking ever since getting my first Betty Crocker Kids Cookbook when I was about 7. I have to admit that to this day, I still use recipes from that wonderful book, and look to it for inspiration.
I am passionate about leading a healthy lifestyle and inspiring others to follow suit. Because of my love for cooking, here on Living Lou, I put an emphasis on healthy eating. There’s nothing I enjoy more than developing, testing and writing about recipes that I love and your body loves. My love for cooking is known by everyone who knows me. I’m often the girl who brings along baked goods to class, or to a house party or for the kids I’m babysitting. It is common knowledge that I absolutely, positively, adore everything about food.
While I spend lots of time on Living Lou, it’s not the only thing that I do. I love film and TV. Absolutely love it. Award show season is one my favourite times of the year. (Side note, so is Christmas.) Naturally, my love for film has to manifest itself somewhere and that’s where being a full time film student comes in. It keeps me pretty busy. I also play guitar and enjoy reading, writing and fashion. I want to say that I enjoy exercise, but I don’t think I’m quite there yet. One day, my friends, one day.
ABOUT THE BLOG
Living Lou was born in May 2010. I wasn’t really sure what I was doing at first, all I knew was that I loved getting recipes from all over the blogosphere and I thought it would be a fun and creative outlet for my then, barely 17 year old self. As a strictly recipe following girl I wanted to try my hand at creating recipes and food photography – which is an art form in itself! Living Lou is a journey and has presented me with many opportunities I wouldn’t have had.

I like your blog a lot. Where do you live? Hopefully you can come to a food blogger conference if we have one in Canada.
Thank you – I live in southern Ontario :)
Louisa, I would not be surprised if this blog was run by a veteran food-blogging pro! Very impressive stuff.
