We just got back to California from Miami yesterday. I am just starting to sort through photos and videos and memories.
My birthday celebrations extended out over the full week. (I am NOT complaining.) And I got to hang with (almost) everyone I knew or was related to at one point or another. Seriously, this trip was complete bliss.
As most of you already know, I also blog over at Babalú and at the Tiki Tiki. I was particularly pleased that I got to hang with all the folks I usually only see online.
My friend and partner in blogdom, Carrie Ferguson-Weir, is much more on the ball than I am (and much bossier, too, but that’s not important right now) and has already started posting videos of all the people we chased down with our video cameras to talk about “el Tiki Tiki.”
Do yourself a favor and head on over to the Tiki Tiki this week. You won’t be sorry. I think the interviews we got were pure gold. Oh, and don’t be surprised if you find yourself on camera there, too.
Here she puts me on the spot. (Yes, my face really is that round. I know. Shut up.)
I know. I know. Soy tan mandona! I can’t help it.Un besote grande for you and Amy. It was beyond wonderful to hang out — even when you left me in favor of fancy places on Brickell…but that’s not important right now. 🙂
I didn’t realize my husband was listening to the video. At the end, he says “el tiki tiki is when my wife drinks too much and can’t stop talking.” LOL
well marta happy belated b-day! it looks like you had a blast. ok i’m writing to say i finally had cuban food for the first time (aside from the ribs i made with your recipe) at a place called baracoa cuban cafe in atwater village on wed. night it was great! it’s a small place and i was the only person in there which always makes me wonder but i ordered arroz con pollo and cafe con leche and it was amazing. i have no idea what the spices were in the rice but ive never had rice like that before. and….it was fluffy. and the service was also excellent and the prices were very rasonable. if i have time next wed. i’ll try something else.
You are filled with so much fun!!
Marta!I love the tikitiki youtube video. Very fun!
xoxo Amy
