Hello and Happy Sunday! It is almost 11am, Luis is still fast asleep, Pachi is next to him chewing on his bone, and I woke up at 9am since I fell asleep on the sofa around midnight. Work is sort of picking up again so this week may be busy (better busy than not), and […]

Well, it is December 18th and is offically over 2 months since my last post. To be fair, I wrote a post on my phone about 6 weeks ago and never posted it. This is that post, plus some: Hello there friends and family! It’s been a bit since I’ve checked in and this is […]

Today is a great day. I am at home wearing fuzzy pajamas, our new puppy is being bad and chewing the chair under my feet, and I am live-streaming the hostage release and Trump’s speech in Israel and these are 3 things that make it a great day. I can’t believe it has been over […]

Hello, hello! It’s 8:30pm on Sunday night and I have a few minutes to blog! Luis is at IKEA trying to sell back some chairs that we have had sitting in Mazál for a few years and no longer use. Did you know they have a buy-back program?! We just got back from an amazing […]

Sunday was one of those days where I joked “open a business, they said. it will be fun, they said”. We spent 7 hours or so going to pick up a used huge, heavy-as-heck, life-crushing freezer. All in the name of saving a thousand euros (which is not insignificant, to be fair). I didn’t even […]

Good morning! It is Saturday, 9:37am and I woke up before my alarm. Is this 33?! I am a consistently good sleeper, sometimes too good of a sleeper. As in, I can fairly easily sleep until noon, but if I do that, I wake up with a headache, body aches, neck pain, groggy, and usually […]

Hello from a very, very hot Friday. The air is hot and dry here in Madrid (better than hot and humid), but rough without a pool! I am working from home today because if I go to any of the restaurants, I will end up working and I have stuff to get done on the […]

I keep my promises, Dad! I had a fan request to write a post this week and I made a promise that I would, so Sunday at 12:49pm, I am making good on that promise. No minute like the last minute, right? Right. I like looking back on posts, seeing what I have done and […]

Let’s squeeze one last post into 2024, shall we? December is usually a quieter month for us, after the rush of November and the intensity that comes with Thanksgiving and Pie Week (the week of Thanksgiving when we make and sell a billion pies), December is usually quite a bit slower. I usually feel a […]

Hello from rainy Madrid! I started this post almost 30 days ago so it’s high time I get back to it. ____ From Fairbanks, we took the Alaska National Railroad to Denali. We got very lucky with beautiful, sunny weather in Denali, and it was just the best. The views from the train were breathtaking. […]
