Last week the weather in Mexico City was really hot. Every day, after coming home from work, I had a deadly craving for a popsicle. I wanted it to be creamy, but didn’t want it to be super heavy, I wanted something that I could eat in the middle of...

There is nothing like homemade tortillas, you can’t compare them with the ones sold in the supermarkets. The truth is that, for convenience, I always buy them at the supermarket. Although I prefer to eat bread instead of tortillas (something not...

I never used to love sauerkraut. In fact, I kind of hated the stuff. I never really got it, until I fell in love with fermented foods ( kimchi was the real gateway drug in this story). Now, I love the stuff. The sauerkraut I had in Germany was amazing…

I went home for spring break last week but we were only in San Diego for 4 nights so my mom and I had to plan our menus strategically. Two nights were already taken care of because fish tacos and Cardiff Crack go without saying. Some of my favorite things…

I really love lamb. When I was little my parents used to make lamb burgers with blue cheese and apparently I was repulsed by them. Those days are over. Sometimes my dad says he wishes they weren’t. Lamb and eggplant are a combination made in heaven….

I had this salad for the first time when we visited our friends. I liked it immediately. Salads made with cabbage tend to be my favorite. Crunchy cabbage, cucumbers, chives and all the rest of the ingredients mixed with this brand of mayo, turns out…

I embrace having perishables when I’m about to go out of town. It’s the ultimate motivator to use only things you have/things you have open. This week is spring break and last weekend I realized we still had quite a bit of perishable items...

Atlanta Spartan Sprint Race Day! Depending on the weather, we prefer to have a start time around 12:30pm. Of course we don’t want to cook ourselves like we nearly did that last month at the Phoenix Sprint. The older I get, the more time I need to warm up and...

It couldn’t have been easy to be my mother. I was shy, stubborn, and resistant to change. I’d observe a national day of tantrums every time she cut my hair. I was obsessed with Julia Child, Lucille Ball, and McDonald’s… every...
