Si la amistad fuera un sabor, sabria a mi frappiccino de mocha y chocolate con leche de soja. Divino.
If friendship had a flavor, it would taste like my chocolate mocha frappiccino with soy milk. Divine.

Un Pequeno Heroe
Se acuerdan de mi sobrino, Johh? A pesar de tantos desafios ha cumplido los 11 anios con un caracter fuerte y disposicion chistosa y se hace querer.
Do you remember my nephew, John? In spite of so many challenges he has turned 11 years old with a strong character and witty, loveable disposition.
Proud to light his own candles/Orgulloso de encender sus propias velas.
Regalos/Presents!

Market Days
The best thing about August is Farmer's Market.
Lo mejor de agosto es el Mercadillo.
Field ripened strawberries
Fresas listas para comer directamente del campo californiano
It's true, I'm an organic gal.
Si, es verdad, "Soy una chica totalmente organica."
Everything looks delicious!
Todo con una presentacion deliciosa!
Girasoles y albahaca (los tengo a montones en mi jardin) pero que bonitos se ven aqui.I have sunflowers and basil in my garden, but they look so nice here.
Peaches, our favorite summer fruit.

La Indecision
Todas las batallas
en la vida sirven
para ensenarnos algo,
incluso aquellas que
perdemos.
Every battle
in life serves
to teach us something,
including those that
we lose.
Esperar duele. Olvidar duele.
Pero el peor de
los sufrimientos es
no saber que decision
tomar.
It hurts to wait. It hurts to forget
But the worst
of all the sufferings is
not knowing what decision
to make.

Goodbyes/Las Despedidas
Nunca he sido muy buena con las despedidas. Era la nina que al prepararse para salir los seres queridos, se escondia detras de un libro en meditacion estoica para no sentir la enorme perdida que le invadia el corazon. Pues, manana se van de San Francisco Andres y Felix para Espana y el jueves es la salida de Ruben a Belgica. Y con eso, y un viaje de coche mas, ya no estaran aqui con tantos chistes, risas, preguntas, preferencias..., tanta vida en fin. Los voy a echar mucho de menos. Manana, y el dia siguiente y el siguiente. . . .
I've never been very good at goodbyes. I was the girl who, when loved ones were getting ready to leave, I would stoically meditate on some book so I wouldn't feel the enormity of the loss invading my heart. Well, tomorrow Andres and Felix leave SF to Spain, and Thurs. is Ruben's departure for Belgium. And with that, one more road trip, and they won't be here with so many jokes, laughter, questions, preferences, . . . so much life. I'm really going to miss them. Tomorrow and the next day and the next. . .
