Birthing Class

Yesterday Joe and I had to go to Rota for our birthing class.  We watched a 3 hour video on different topics such as pain reduction options, the stages of labor, emergency c-sections, postpartum, and preparing for your new baby.  We also got a tour of the labor and delivery wing at the Naval hospital… Continue reading Birthing Class

21 and counting!

I think it’s safe to say that Joe and I will not be following in the Duggars footsteps. Last night was the Air Force Ball. Since Joe was in Germany this week and I have nothing to wear to a ball that won’t make me look like a big, round, taffeta beach ball I decided… Continue reading 21 and counting!

House Pics

Even though we moved in to our new home in early July I am only now finishing up decorating and unpacking inside.  I was gone for 6 weeks so that didn’t help and moving twice in 6 months really decreased my enthusiasm to unpack this time around.  Regardless, I have just about finished the downstairs… Continue reading House Pics

Summer, summer, summertime!

Not much happening around these parts lately other than weekends packed with BBQs.  The temperatures have been well over 100 degrees so the only thing people want to do is jump in the pool and sit in the shade.  Two weeks ago we co-hosted a shrimp boil with some friends. Our friends Joey and Rena… Continue reading Summer, summer, summertime!

Our New House

It seems I’ve been out of contact for quite some time and the past few weeks have been crazy.  One day Joe and I started talking about possibly moving to a new house.  It came up rather causally but as we started to think more about it we decided that it would be a good… Continue reading Our New House

Sunday Hike

After church today, Joe and I headed out to do some more exploring of our new town.  We’ve been in our house exactly a month today and are loving everything about our new digs. It was warm today, about 70 degrees in the shade with a nice light breeze.  The clouds in the sky were… Continue reading Sunday Hike

The enormous tent set up with… Continue reading Tapas Festival

Restaurant Review – La Tranquera

Last night we headed to Marchena, a town about 20 minutes east of Moron, to an Argentinian restaurant called La Tranquera. Tranquera specializes in grilled meats and many of the menu items are delivered to your table on small coal grills. The menu is extensive with various appetizers and salads to start off with as… Continue reading Restaurant Review – La Tranquera

My Endless Quest For Produce

Combine my love of cooking with my love of fruits and vegetables and you get my endless quest for fresh and affordable produce.  Some of you may remember the $10 watermelons I never bought in Korea.  Well thankfully, Spain is a lot more produce friendly.  There is a small chain of stores in Moron de… Continue reading My Endless Quest For Produce
