Getting ready for the Christmas Season: food, recipes and life update.

Getting ready for the Christmas Season: food, recipes and life update.

Hey there! You missed me? I guess not. But anyway, I’ll keep writing here as often as I please. My house, my rules. I want to talk to you a little bit about Christmas recipes, food I’ve been eating and a little life update. But first, here’s the playlist for November as I haven’t crafted my Christmas list yet. Start listening before you dig in. These past months have been a bit of a reset (mentally) for me. I’ve been…

Hello again. I’m back! Life update: January 2024.

Hello again. I’m back! Life update: January 2024.

Hey! Did you miss me? I surely did. I’ve been focusing in other projects but the other day I felt the urge to come back here. To write in English about life and food. But as always, tune in your spotify and listen to my January Playlist. It comes with oldies. I felt nostalgic. I decided to come back to this monthly summaries. More as a check up than anything else. I really don’t focus my life on food that…

January 2023: The Winter Blues

January 2023: The Winter Blues

It’s the first month of 2023 and even though I’m a very optimistic person, I can’t help but feeling the winter blues. January is a dark month, even if in Yule the light won over darkness and days are becoming longer. Darkness and cold, but specially damp weather make me feel lethargic and sad. I don’t talk too much about Ayurveda or Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in here, although it’s a big passion of mine studying both. In Ayurveda, we…

On individualism, celebrating, Christmas and cultural appropiration.

On individualism, celebrating, Christmas and cultural appropiration.

In this post I’m going to dive a little deeper in topics that I’ve been reflecting for a while like individualism, celebrating and cultural appropriation. December is here and the only thing I can focus on is The Christmas Season. It’s everywhere. You know I’m all in for sustainability and don’t enjoy consumerism too much, but Christmas is supposed to be celebrated. No matter your religion. You don’t necessarily have to celebrate a Christian Christmas or any other religious holiday…

The day I didn’t die (one of the many) 5 years after the car crash

The day I didn’t die (one of the many) 5 years after the car crash

Today is the five year anniversary of the car crash that could’ve killed us. I didn’t die. We didn’t die. Although I feel grateful every day (and I prove it by doing a gratitude journal every day) life gets in the way. It’s almost impossible forcing yourself to feel grateful some times. And even though you have things to thank for, the ones that put you down seem heavier. I have a lot of things to be grateful. First and…

January Music 🎧 – Monthly blog update 📷 🖊

Happy New Year food lovers!     How’s 2021 treating you so far? It started nice for me. I’m taking things one step at a time, but there’s a lot of changes going on in everything.     We all know 2020 shook things up, now we have to reinvent ourselves in any possible way. I made a playlist with some of the songs I enjoyed in 2020.     December was a weird one. I didn’t even had time…

A year after the car crash: Fear, Gratitude and What We Ate.

A year after the car crash: Fear, Gratitude and What We Ate.

A year ago I was involved in a car accident. It was very scary mainly for three reasons: 1) It happened in France and I was supposed to arrive in London for our tour the next day. 2) Carlos tried to avoid the car from crashing four times, but the ice made it impossible to stay on the road. 3) The car got out of the road and turned on one side, making it incredibly difficult to get out of…

Advent Calendar: 1 habit a day #adventhabits

Advent Calendar: 1 habit a day #adventhabits

I’ve read a lot about how easy it is to do something if you form a habit. That’s why I hate new year’s resolutions done in January. I have a lot of resolutions, but I don’t feel like the first day of the year is going to be the best day to start. Why? Well, you probably stayed up later than usual, you might be hungover if you drink alcohol and if you are, like most people, a food lover…you’ve…

Roscón de Reyes: King’s Cake for the Twelfth Night

Roscón de Reyes: King’s Cake for the Twelfth Night

I know I’m late. I mean, the Epiphany was celebrated yesterday and I’m posting this today…But let’s be honest, 99% of you bought the cake yesterday and were not willing to make it yourselves. I was like that a couple of years ago, it’s more convenient. But I love making food, and I want to bake more, because I’m not very good at it. And I think I won’t ever be good at it, because I never follow recipes. For…
