Sunday...Cooking with my friends

Dulce, Ale and I spend the day cooking at my house. And boy can we cook!!!!

First you have to boil lots and lots of water.

Due to lack of paper towels, i use the closest thing to me to wipe my hands:)

Onions being cut for the main course.

Got to butter-up the pan!

Toasting to the special occasion.

Adding the rice to the buttered pan.

Ale adding red wine to our fabulous dessert!

Adding white wine to the rice...(anyone seeing a re-occurring theme here...lots and lots of wine, only way to do it.)

Here's the finished product...damn, it's making me hungry again.

You think we were a bit hungry???? We licked it clean!

And FINALLY...dessert! yum!

Thanks girls! When are we doing it again??

Oh...and Blonds really DO have more fun

Oh they really do.

The Wonders of a Vacation

Four glourious days may not sound like much of a vacation to most people, but it was just perfect! A day more and I think it would have been too much. Three of my friends and I decided to take a much needed break to do nothing more than sit under the sun. And that exactly what we did.
We went to beautiful Puerto Rico. Now I have been there once before, and let's just say that I pretty much never wanted to go back! So when my friends came to me with this idea, they had to twist my arm a bit (not too too much), but i finally caved. And boy am I glad that I did! We stayed at an awesome hotel (five star). It was gorgeous! This was my first time staying at such a luxurious hotel, and I completely recommend it. They don't let you do anything for yourself, it's like having your own personal butler following you around (only not a bulter like in "The Nanny", these ones are much much hotter!!).
One morning, we were trying to find a nice place to sit near the pool and it was pretty crowded. What's a girl to do when she can't find a great location to relax??? Apparently, not too much cause in about 2 seconds there was Javier (a beautiful puerto rican that loved to cater to all our wants and needs. And apparently it was always "his pleasure". He would finish off every task by saying "my pleasure". Oh gosh..hold on, I need a second...ok...back...) ., with towels in hand ready to find us the perfect spot. Once we found the perfect place to relax (our perfect spot to relax happened to be right in the middle of the entryway to the beach, we blocked half of the path to the beach but they let us do pretty much whatever we want and we looked good doing it), he assembled the beach chairs with the towels and the umbrellas for us (what a guy...mmm..yummy). And about every hour, he would come back to make sure everything was ok, and would move the umbrella to either give us more shade or more sun depending on how we were feeling. Now THAT is the life!!!
Why can't I have a Javier here at home??? (back to reality, I actually have to do stuff for myself...oye!)

Man I need another vacation. But I am on that already...right Dulce?!?!?!?!

Skinny Dipping

Too bad my camera isn't that good. hehe. we are skinny dipping..use your imagination;)

Pool or Beach...hmmm

Relaxing in the pool. Oh...how I miss the tough decisions between whether to sit by the beach or the pool. The hard choices one has to make on vacation. ~sigh~

Local Photographers...Not the best

Locals really can't take good pictures...sheesh

Trust me, behind us (or actually in front of us) there was this great view off a cliff. But all you can see is our back and some girl staring at us thinking we are really strange!!
Is it really that weird that we only wanted him (the waiter) to take a picture of our backs with a view??? And is it such an outragous request that he missed the real view?? ARGHHH.

At least the food was good, and pretty cheap!

I'm BACK...and better than ever..

So I finally tried the 'correct' password for my blog. Too many logins/passwords that I just really can't keep track.
