2023

Wow! It's 2023. I know, it's like three months in and we just went through daylight savings time and resetting our clocks, so I'm a little behind. Obviously, I'm a bit late to this party. I don't know why I haven't been writing. I made this big post back in October of 2022 about how … Continue reading 2023 →

Ocho Semanas en Oaxaca: Episodio 4

There were a lot of tacos at the beginning of June. I was diagnosed with Covid on the 3rd, so then I didn't really go places except the taco stand up the street and the outdoor market in San Felipe in the second half of my little quarantine stint. But they were some damned good … Continue reading Ocho Semanas en Oaxaca: Episodio 4 →

Ocho Semanas en Oaxaca: Episodio 1

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 →

Food Diary Week 105 (3/31-4/6/2022)

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) →

Food Diary Week 103 (3/17-3/23/2022)

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.

Oaxaca Food

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 →

Food Diary Week 102 – 3/10-3/16

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 →

Food Diary Week 101 – 3/3/22-3/9/22

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 →

Food Diary Weeks 99-100 (2/17-3/2)

While my 100th post on this series should come with more fanfare, I have decided to combine these two weeks. I've done this mostly because there will be separate blog on my food while in Mexico. I left on the 16th and returned the 27th, so this will be shorter post of what I know … Continue reading Food Diary Weeks 99-100 (2/17-3/2) →

My Authentic Oaxaqueña Cooking Experience

I'm going to do an entire blog on my experience in Oaxaca, Mexico, but this deserves its own page. I have decided that I want to take a cooking class in any country I visit and I want to visit a lot of places. In February, I took a sort of impromptu trip to Oaxaca, … Continue reading My Authentic Oaxaqueña Cooking Experience →
