Seven Spoons is the work of Tara O'Brady, a self-confessed foodie who started the blog back in 2005 as a way of keeping a file of her recipes. In the time since then, Tara has gained a husband and two sons and now describes the blog as "A story of sorts, a collection of thoughts and family and food."

The blog's photographs are visually striking, shooting the food in context rather than styling it into a photographic narrative. This complements O'Brady's stories, which sit alongside her recipes to make them intimate and inspiring.
