I have a question about the dink take on things. To me that says that money and picky eaters are not issues. So does that mean your food will be more "grown up" or more expensive? How does dink relate to the type of food you make?
Do people outside or GBCN even know what DINK is? I never heard of it before here.

First time I heard dink was from a (no Facebook, Twitter, etc) male coworker, so I'd assume dink is a fairly universal term at this point.

The idea is really cooking for two. It's hard to find a recipe for two, and a lot of times I end up with a crap ton of leftovers I don't want to eat. And yeah, without kids you don't really have to think about picky eaters - so you can make smoked Gouda and bacon Brussels sprouts and not have to worry about kids not eating them.

I have quite a few DINK friends- and they love to remind me of the term, lol. I think it's a great POV, even for people with kid(s) that still want to make a nice meal--(me, with one kid who is a picky eater and has parents who will eat almost anything. And 3 or 4 days out of the week, we might have different, maybe even fancy, meals).
I like it as a concept. If I were selling it to someone else I might play up moe than just the two people thing. I would have a clear idea of who dink describes and why you food is more suited to them than the person next to you who is doing the family meals thing. Maybe include cocktail or wine pairings. Fink have more disposable income so they would be good for advertisers to attract.
Also, it's not uncommon for DINKs to either eat out frequently or carry out, as budget isn't an issue, and their time is often better spent working/going to the gym/relaxing rather than cooking. I would think fast, upscale recipes for two with premium ingredients would be ideal for this demographic. And the wine/cocktail pairings is genius.
Okay. I'm being annoying now. This is what I like in my closet right now. I'm going to the mall as soon as it opens, haha. Tshirt reads "Brooklyn does it better" I also have the same skirt as the floral in solid black but it didn't photograph well in this lighting.
I prefer the skirt over these three. They are cute and casual for regular life, but read really young in a less-good way than the whale skirt, IMO. Almost like you couldn't be bothered to put in much effort for the audition. The other look seemed more put-together.
I have to take a headshot today, too! I was going to wear one of these, hold a pie and be like "walla." hahaha.
*flops over* I can't dress myself to save my life, hahaha.
