A Taste of Primavera
The español word of el día: primavera. Primavera means spring. Spring means fabuloso weather, fresh produce and a general influx in reasons to love life. So when Wednesday decided to play dress-up as primavera, I awoke in a state of general gleefulness—and with a surge of extra endorphins. I sprung (pun definitely intended) out of [...]

By Now, I Should Know…
By now, I should know that cereal and I are futile breakfast partners in crime. You see, when cereal and I meet en la mañana, we always do the same old dance. I dole out far too large a serving. I enjoy the soggy deliciousness but find myself still hungry. I refill with with more [...]
