I have been going to the same Pumpkin Patch for years, mostly because of the chickens. This year, I have come to realize that this is a tradition I should let go – my chickens have grown up and don’t want to go anymore. 2018 may be the last time you will see a Pumpkin […]

It would seem that if you write about food, take pictures and post that in a blog, and not many people are paying attention to what you are doing, then it is all is just a monumental waste of time. I do often ponder about the usefulness of this hobby of mine. Not only me […]

This was my first time visiting a Buddhist Temple in my life; I didn’t find out that there was one so close to me until last year. Wat Buddharangsi Buddhist Temple of Miami was celebrating its 36th anniversary with a Thai Food Festival, so it was the perfect time to visit. There was live music, fresh produce, […]

We were hungry, and I did not want to drive too far, so we ended up at the same Peruvian restaurant across the street, Aromas de Perú. This was not a leisurely lunch – we wanted to eat as much as possible in a short amount of time as the little one had a […]

A friend of mine recommended Finka Table & Tap, it looked good, but I thought that it was far away from home. When I found out that it was less than fifteen minutes away from where I live, there was no time to waste; we had to run to this restaurant and try the […]

Today I needed limes to season chicken, so I went to the market, that was an unusual move as it was devil-hot and air conditioning is always a priority. There was another reason behind this insane excursion – the deep need to take pictures in daylight. The weather has been atrocious lately- hot, humid, sauna-like. […]

I invited my two chickens to have a burger with me, and only the little one accepted the invitation. We went to Five Guys because it was close and not so expensive. The real reason for the date was not just to eat a hamburger – I needed footage to start practicing making videos on […]

We visited Aromas Del Perú again to have a quick lunch, but this time it was not only about the food – I needed a safe place to play. The staff at this restaurant knows me and are aware that I am always taking pictures of their food. This time though, I was dabbling in […]

We left Miami to go looking for a restaurant in Hollywood that happened to be on the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk. I must confess that I was not expecting it to be so pretty. It was also a beautiful day, the sunshine enhancing the intense colors of the ocean and sky. The beach was packed with […]

To prolong my birthday celebrations, I invited one of my daughters for a quick lunch at Pisco Y Nazca at the Kendall location. This was my second visit to this restaurant, and I was not disappointed. We began with the Ceviche Rocoto that was made with mahi, shrimp, octopus, fried calamari, rocoto (peppers), leche de […]

I did not realize that the Wynwood Walls was such a popular place to visit in Miami. I had been there before, some years ago, but did not have the time to linger and appreciate the real beauty of the art painted on the walls. It’s different, full of positive energy, a fascinating place showcasing […]

I have been in this country for a long time, and one of the things that intrigued me when I got here was seeing a bunch of pumpkins, in piles, surrounded by scarecrows during the month of October. People usually visit pumpkin patches to choose a pumpkin for Halloween to make jack-o’-lanterns and to decorate […]

Another Sunday drive, another opportunity to spend quality time with family while feeling vegetables, tasting unusual fruits and people watching at Robert is Here. This time my attention focused on one of the signs outside that said “Fresh Boiled Peanuts”. My father asked, what are those, people boil peanuts? I said that it was a […]
