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
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
Let's be fair. I am a month behind and writing several weeks' posts at once. So yes, the cranky from week 85 continues to carry through. And I'm combining a couple of weeks because I got carried away writing it and because I'm so damned behind again and I have several non-diary blog post ideas … Continue reading Covid Life Weeks 86 & 87
Yep, still catching up. Stay with me, I promise it is like a car crash. You just can't look away. I'm kidding. Those that follow me know that I have great cooking weeks and I have incredibly dull cooking weeks. I wish I could say I rocked it every week, but only people on TV … Continue reading Covid Life Food Diary Week 83
I'm almost caught up to the present week. Of course, I'll commit to keeping them current. But we'll all know I am probably lying...or just wishful thinking. But hey, we all just do the best we can! This week saw some food victories and of course, some less than victorious moments. Thursday (9/9) - We … Continue reading Semi-Quarantined Life Week 76
Well, I put my agoraphobic tendencies aside and got on a plane, and off to Spain I went. I flew from Chicago to Madrid on Tuesday the 13th, arriving at 7am on Wednesday in Spain. It was an amazing, whirlwind of a week. We had only a few days in each city, at most, and … Continue reading My Food Exploration in Spain
I love food. And I love traveling. One of my favorite parts of traveling is food. I know, this is a big shocker. But I truly believe that you get to know a culture, a people, in a way that is very intimate through their food. Like let's just look at the United States. I … Continue reading Meeting through Food
I am getting more and more comfortable with going back into the world. We are still wearing masks regardless of the new CDC recommendations. I think I mentioned that I might stay in one for a while. But I am relaxing about it a bit. I'll go outside in areas I'm unlikely to run into … Continue reading Semi-Quarantined Life (Week 59)
Oh I am perpetually behind on these. Life is busy these days. Since we are no longer totally locked down, there are the trips to grocery stores, patio dining with friends we've missed, and work is crazy busy. I think all of these things are good...somewhat stressful as I adjust...but they also really take away … Continue reading Semi-Quarantined Life (Week 58)
