The joy of cooking… I love cooking, and I love e The joy of cooking… I love cooking, and I love entertaining. I had forgotten how much. I hadn’t cooked Peruvian food in a very long time. @irenesancheztv I think that somehow I believed that my food broke your foot 😅. But the other day I had superb papas a la huancaina at @beatnikrestaurants and I had to make some. @isabel_zeb I still use your recipe, which I like better than any from a cooking book. I discovered Peruvian food in 2004, while visiting Peru with friends. And since then it is my favorite in the whole wide world. But going back to the joy of cooking… The joy of cooking is not in the food. It is in the people you share the food, and the experience with.

Todo el rollo de arriba viene a decir que lo mejor de cocinar es la gente con la que compartes la comida. Y que con la pandemia casi se nos había olvidado. #peruvianfood #comidaperuana #huancaina #ajidegallina #causa #cooking #cocina #homemade #comidacasera #amigos #friends
Y para terminar aún mejor el día, cena en Chicag Y para terminar aún mejor el día, cena en Chicago con una amiga de esas de toda la vida. De esas con las que te metiste en todos los líos posibles, y corriste aventuras y juergas. De las que te conocen desde hace treinta años (iba a escribir veinte, pero no 😬), y con las que retomas la conversación exactamente donde la dejaste hace seis mese. Un placer tenerte por aquí, @d_i_x_x_x 
The best way to end a snowy weekend? Having dinner in Chicago with a childhood friend from Spain. ❤️
We finally got proper snow! Most people love summe We finally got proper snow! Most people love summer, but for me Chicago is at its peak in cold winter days like today. Lincoln Park was wonderful, and perfect to play and sled. 
❄️🛷
¡Por fin ha nevado de verdad! A la mayoría de la gente le gusta la ciudad en verano, pero para mi Chicago está perfecta en días así, de frío y nieve. Y los niños se lo pasan genial.

His gorgeousness is turning three today. Well, thr His gorgeousness is turning three today. Well, three and three older brothers, which gives a better description of his age. He is funny, fearless, mischievous, loving, and cuddly. He loves riding his bike, all things construction, Paw Patrol, food, all of it, and above all, his brothers. He is a daddy’s boy, makes us all laugh a lot, and keeps being a beacon of light. Have a wonderful year, Little T. 
🎂💙🚜
Esta preciosidad cumple tres años hoy. Bueno, tres años y tres hermanos mayores es una descripción mejor de su edad. Es graciosísimo, atrevido, travieso, cariñoso y muy achuchable. Le encanta montar en su bici, los vehículos de construcción, Paw Patrol, toda la comida, pero sobre todo, sus hermanos. Está completamente empadrado, nos hace reír a diario, y sigue siendo nuestro ratito de luz. Que tengas un año estupendo, mi niño. #birthday #boy #motherhood #family #maternidad #LittleT #familia #elpequeño
