The last day of June is upon which means this mini breakfast series will conclude today. Today we had a light breakfast. We had fruits (apples, strawberries and bananas), mixed nuts and Jugo de Avena. Parents remember that nourishing our bodies doesn’t have to be complicated and our food does not need to be Instagram perfect. I hope everyone has […]
On a regular day (pre pandemic) breakfast consisted of some cereal or oatmeal with a fruit on the side. Since March 15 we decided to eat a big breakfast almost every day. One because we have the time to cook up a great mean and we need to enjoy life a little bit more. Food gives us happiness! Some of […]
Every morning for the past 10 years I have had a cup of coffee with half and inch of milk. Yes, even while pregnant I drank coffee. During the summer months I like to have an ice coffee, juice or smoothie for breakfast. If the day is on the cooler side, I’ll made some Colombia hot chocolate (Chocolate Corona). For […]
How many times have you heard that eating bread is bad? I’ve heard this since I was about eight. I think I heard it on tv.

Growing up in the tropics was one of the most wonderful experiences so far. Besides my family what I miss the most is the heat, rain, and humidity. I love Canada but I’m not too fond of the weather.

During the last two weeks, we have been closely following the situation in the United States. We are not citizens, but we have a special place for the U.S.A. in our hearts. However, racism and police brutality continue to shatter the lives of Black people, Indigenous peoples and POC in the U.S.A., Canada through out the world.
