I'm having one of those accidentally cool things happening that happens to me occasionally because I live in a fun bloggy world. I am traveling to Miami for Blogalicious Weekend 2010. Celebrating Diversity in Social Media. (The words celebrating and social seem like they describe me perfectly. Am I right?) My trip is being sponsored in full by ...

Pumpkins and Games and Googly Eyes – Oh My! (A Giveaway)
Yep, I'm still writing about Betty Crocker. I warned you I had a lot to share! Again, I want to reiterate that spending those few days with a group of proactive, excited bloggers in the Betty Crocker Kitchens will definitely be one of the highlights of my life. Seriously. I think maybe because all of us got to just relax and play. You know how ...
Chipper Chicken Recipe and a Giveaway
My mom taught us girls how to cook when we were very young. During the summers, when my sisters and I were out of school, she devised a rotating system of teaching us Homemaking, the Cuban Way. My older sisters were already married and gone, but the three of us younger ones, Miriam, Alina and myself still needed to be groomed to be Perfect Cuban ...
Baking With Betty – Fabulous RED Goodie Bag Winner
I realized late on this day, when I was already at my in-laws house celebrating Labor Day that I had Something To Do that I had forgotten about.

It was when someone at the luncheon started asking me questions about how I do ...

I'll be writing multiple posts (and sharing multiple recipes!) about the kitchens, the company culture and the fun we had, because there's just so much to share. (Plus, I'm waiting for a few Betty Crocker goodies to arrive so I can do a giveaway. Thanks, ...
Que Rica Vida Goodies Winner
Thanks to all of you lovely commentors commentators folks who left a comment for the Que Rica Vida goodies. I truly like knowing what General Mills products you use. (I'm genuinely curious about these kinds of things...or maybe stalkery? But that's not important right now. =D) As usual, I entered the names into a list on Random.org and ...
MY Que Rica Vida – or Orange is the New Black
So, Marta, what were you doing in Miami, anyway? I was visiting family and meeting blog-friends and working the Babalú booth at Cuba Nostalgia and of course, celebrating my birthday. (If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook, you would know exactly what I was up to moment by moment.) But the real reason I was able to go, was because of the ...
