Day 4…MAN these are good ritas!

April 13, 2013

*disclaimer has been drinking* Today was follow up day.  Um... You said you were going to get us this and you haven't.  He said he was going to get this.  Nope.  Don't got it.  That kind of follow up.  I have been doing cost extract and analysis in the mean time while I'm waiting for people to gather the necessary information.  I just *crosses fingers*  HOPE that they can produce at least 2 muy importante pieces of papel for this adventure.  If … [Read more...]

Day 3 – Black Fettuccine?

April 12, 2013

I have no idea what happened.  I KNOW I scheduled it for the AM.  *sigh* Great.  Another morning.  Another day.  I hope hope hope that today isn't negative like yesterday was.  I CAN.NOT deal with another day like yesterday.  I will literally curl up in the fetal position and just cry.  Consequently, I wasn't saying a whole heck of a lot today.  When you wake up to this in your room:   and How can it really be a bad day?  Right?  … [Read more...]

Day 2…Negativity Abundance.

April 10, 2013

I'd really like to hear someone say what we do that's good.  I'm so so SO tired of hearing of all the things that are wrong.  For once, PLEASE can I hear something good?  And after you fire at me all these things that are wrong and I fire back and all you say is, "I don't know."  Really?  That's all you got?  You have ALL these answers to the world's problems but mine.  I don't know?  Then maybe, just participate, figure out the system, then try to correct it before you just start pointing … [Read more...]

Bogota Day 1…or why you don’t get me started on politics.

April 9, 2013

In case you were wondering, no I didn't get the same symptoms as last time.  Headache, yes.  Nausea, no.  Feel like death?  NO!  Thank baby jebus!!  I can't imagine feeling like that EVER AGAIN! The rooms are lux and gorgeous.  But I miss Steve.  They kind of are wasted on just me.  The big bed?  Still only sleep on my side.  Nice fluffy comforter? Hate it.  I feel like I'm drowning in down with that thing AND it's too hot.  … [Read more...]

The Weekly Recap…and pantry cleaning update

February 25, 2013

In my effort to try to step up my blog posts, I thought I would try to start a weekly recap.  *shrugs*  Hopefully I can keep this up.  If not, I'll be like one of those hundreds of blogs that just fall off the radar due to life.  This blog isn't a monetary thing for me...it's - I don't know what it is.  A catalyst to make me be more creative in the kitchen as opposed to simply following recipes?  Yeah, that sounds good!  LOL Ah yes...hamburgers at … [Read more...]

Slow Braised Guajillo Pepper Beef

February 21, 2013

So, I had set out to recreate this Slow-Braised Guajillo Pepper Beef from Agave Azul: I didn't quite make it.  But I figured, as long as it was tasty, it didn't really matter.  What DOES matter is the cut of meat for this recipe.  The round roast I used wasn't the best choice.  Chuck roast?  Short ribs?  YUP!  Round roast?  HELLTODANO!  It's just not the right cut for this recipe.  OR, it needs to be larger and submerged in more sauce than I … [Read more...]

Hasta Luego Colombia!

February 18, 2013

I am finally home!   YAY!  I had set my alarm for 5:30 since I had already packed and showered the night before.  All I needed to do this morning was throw my jammies in the my luggage, brush my teeth, wash my face, put my toiletries bag in the suitcase and then pack up whatever was left laying around that I forgot. So, here's what 2 weeks worth of unused Sofitel products look like: Yes, yes that is 19 bars of soap, 6 bottles of shower gel, 10 bottles of lotion, 9 bottles of shampoo, 8 bottles … [Read more...]

Gastronomique Tour de Colombia v2.9

February 18, 2013

Last full day in Bogota! YAY!  Today is a tour of a site for a school.  Without getting into too much detail, our programs help train those in the military and judiciary fields in Colombia.  So, we were touring a site that will cost muchos pesos to fix up.  I mean fix-er upper doesn't even DESCRIBE this location.  Some of the classrooms smell HORRID!  The roof is like clay that's covered in moss and falling apart.  Anyway, it's a mess.  So that was … [Read more...]
