Well, I took a pretty decent hiatus from writing. I think my last post was while I was in Mexico over the summer. Pretty sure I have a few drafts I need to finish from that period, but I thought I'd post a little note first. After returning to Chicago at the end of June, … Continue reading Returning to Writng
Well, when I finished episode 2, I had every intent of trying to post more frequently than this, but life sometimes gets in the way. As I mentioned in my prior post, I had some friends come visit for a few days. That was a very busy weekend and very fun, but from there, life … Continue reading Ocho Semanas en Oaxaca: Episodio 3
Well, Sunday afternoons seem to be my blogging time these days. But I do have visitors coming the next couple of weekends, so that might postpone my writing a bit. It's been a pretty productive week. I did some shopping, some cooking, some exploring, and of course, some eating! I also did some work...but who … Continue reading Ocho Semanas en Oaxaca: Episodio 2
Yep! I'm spending eight weeks in Oaxaca, Mexico. My friend who lives here is currently galivanting around Chicago for the summer, so I am subletting her place for a couple of months. It's one of the great advantages of working remote. I can work wherever I am, so currently, I am in Oaxaca. It was … Continue reading Ocho Semanas en Oaxaca: Episodio 1
For the weekend, the husband and I decided to get away. We left on Thursday and returned Sunday evening. We got a cute little Airbnb in Douglas, Michigan, right off the town center. It was an amazing weekend. However, this meant I did not do any cooking. I have given him the parameters of either … Continue reading Food Diary Week 105 (3/31-4/6/2022)
At the end of March, I apparently wasn't totally feeling the cooking vibe and definitely didn't have a photo vibe. I have like three food pictures! But I did do a little cooking. This week, I experimented with some protein bars based off a recipe I found on NYT Cooking. I made a few changes, … Continue reading Food Diary Week 104 (3/24-3/30/2022)
Ya, I'm still trying to keep this diary up. I'm just a little behind. I'm sure like most bloggers, life sometimes gets in the way of writing. But I enjoy talking about my food adventures and no one has kicked me off the internet yet! Overall, it was a pretty good food week. I made … Continue reading Food Diary Week 103 (3/17-3/23/2022)
So, I'm sitting in Oaxaca. This is my second trip here and I realized I never posted a blog on my first trip. That's just neglect because it was an experience. There are beautiful works of art, historical architecture, historical ruins, and so many other things to enjoy here. But you know me. I was … Continue reading Oaxaca Food
Well, looking back at the photos, my first full week back was definitely more of a let someone else cook kind of week. There were taquitos from my favorite bar and grill. They are now doing taquitos every Thursday, which almost makes up for not just putting them back on the regular menu. There was … Continue reading Food Diary Week 102 – 3/10-3/16
I am so behind on blogging! I still haven't even posted all the fun from Mexico. Life has been so busy and I'll admit my cooking adventures these days are nowhere near as impressive as they were when we were all locked up. But I am enjoying being somewhere between the lockdown and total freedom … Continue reading Food Diary Week 101 – 3/3/22-3/9/22
