Jack needs to make more effort, me thinks. He is doing fine in Jinotepe, has a wonderful woman, and doing his thing, but if you want help for deeds, make more effort. Kev, not your problem, you have...

"You know we're gonna need a picture of you in that dress, right?"

Toooo d*mn busy to even think about posting a whole thingy about the Halloween party, which was a huge success with the help of...

"Those Facebook guys are different than us."

No, we're not. :P

Thanks, KWP! I take a lot of herbal meds, make them myself. Just got back on the pica pica (velvet bean) which tweaks the pituitary gland in to making human growth hormone. The big 5-0 is creeping up...

No way was I missing this one! Took a bus, then an expresso (2 buses back home) which is way more public transport than I would normally be willing to handle... but this event was worth it! Here are...

Well, por supuesto, Jonh! :D

It was an expresso to Jinotepe today to make deliveries, pick up egg roll wrappers, and to find the pieces of my Halloween costume this year, a gypsy!
Looks like the new La Colonia is just about...

Ha, LCT, such a sweet talker! :P

Been remiss again, fellas, lo siento. Working like a crazy woman, just trying to find those cordobas. Thankfully, I have THE best landlord in the world. There's an awsome flat screen on the wall in...

Focusing on no spending and increasing sales, so spent the day at home, working on the computer, spiffying up my latest foodie email, and designing flyers that I can pass out around town. Only left...

Lordy, but it's been a doozy couple a days! Asked the fella behind the meat counter for 3 lbs of meat, he gave me 2.85, I hand it back and ask for 3 lbs again, he gives me 3.4, I hand it back again...

I have a huge order for a store in Rivas, sh*tloads of all my sausages plus 28 vegan burgers, all that has to be done by hand... BUT, client asked for an extra day for pickup so I found myself with...

Trying some new things here, KWP, it's all a learning experience. I've grown schtuff in Managua, Jinotepe, Ochomogo, and Santa Cruz... now it's time to learn what will grow in my conditions here in...

LCT, I have email lists and take pre-orders only. Yet, for as amazing as the food is (I know, I know, not very humble... ), I am constantly needing to drum up new customers. As we all know, it's hard...

Here's a bit more of what I've been doing to pay the bills and stay busy...

JW, honey, you know me, smart as a whip, and Scotch-Irish to boot... always gonna come out on top! I started tours based on culinary shopping, hitting a market that no one else does, but then again,...

KWP, just get a'hold of me, and we'll work something out. I am changing things in my life, to allow more time for these tours. Been here so long, might as well use my knowledge of the place to show...

New name, new places, and new adventures! Welcome to Passionate About... Tours

Passionate About Carazo!

Our next trip is Friday, July 22nd at 8am, as we head to the Carazo department, West of...

LOL, KWP, one... but then I don't own much clothes, either. One of the old dudes at the bar was laughing at me when he found out I only own one pair of shoes, said he didn't know a woman could do...

"Woman are hard to please." No, I'm not.

LCT, I haven't been in there yet. They moved to a new location, half a block south of the SW corner of the park, fixed up an existing building, looks like a medical office. The place seems huge now,...

Today was a work day, deliveries to Managua, but that doesn't mean fun can't be had! My driver, Guillermo, got me where I needed to be with no fuss, and then the adventures began. He drives fast....

Ahh, who cares who gets offended, life's too short to worry 'bout much of anything.

Thanks for the biz idea, LCT (and the fantasy... :P ) but the thought of dealing with Customs and/or shipping...

Okay, okay, I'm back... what's new in everybody's world? For me, still cooking like a craaazy woman! Started giving culinary shopping tours to Managua, and expanding my menu to include vegan options,...

Stopped the cooking insanity for a few days and headed to SJDS to catch up with old friends and make some new memories. The town was packed for the hoilday, here are some shots of the fun...
