Special Post --- Cocina Criolla by Nitza Villapol

I posted this in my cooking blog, but thought I should share this with you, since it is my other pastime cooking!

My Tia Nancy recently move to Spain and among all the wonderful things she gave me, she gave me this priceless treasure, well if you go to Amazon I can get about a pretty penny for it.  But I would not sell it for all the tea in China.

Not only does it have all of my favorite recipes that Mi Abuelita use to make for me, it was a special gift from one of my favorite aunts.  

Stay tune, going to start cooking my way through it.  Making a few adjustments to make it a little healthier.  Except when it come time to make those Platanos a la Tentacion (Temptation Plantains) that is just what they are a horrible, delectable sin.

My 3 Blessings

I love this picture of my 3 kids, this was taken last Thanksgiving.  

This weeks challenge at Scrap Africa  is to use chipboard.  I used those 1/2 circles on the top right and bottom left, also the button is chipboard.

Thanks for stopping by.

Friends 4 Life

For the 15th challenge at About a Girl, this really takes me out of my comfort zone, but it was so much fun to do it.  The tutorial by Laura Vegas was great.  I may do it again.  

Thank you for stopping by.  

Smile **For About A Boy Challenge**

This week's challenge at About a Boy is to use white + one.

I just love that I'm scrapping these old photos.   I really need to put all the old photos from the kids in some kind of album.  I may use an idea I saw at Scrap N' Chat to use the Project Life  concept  to scrap multiple pictures.  I can scrap over 3 photo albums in just one album and make a special scrapbook page for those photos worthy of scrapping.  If I decide to do this I will definitely post it here.  

Thanks for stopping by.

About a boy is having a DT Call.

Check out right here all the information.

LOVE ALL THIS KIDS

Then there is Stan the Man, he really is the love of my life even if he has a way of making me so

mad and so crazy, he is so hard at time yet so thoughtful at others. He got up today early

did not allow me to come downstairs until all of it was done, and made this amazing breakfast for me.

He took my Pandora bracelet, got it cleaned and added 4 more charms. Guess I have to keep him for now ok for ever.  Love you Stan!

Can you tell I had a great Mother's day.  

Oh wait, he is now making a cake from scratch and coconut cake at that. YUMM!!! then he wonders why I can't loose weight. Really!

My sister and Me

This one is for Scrap Your Story .  My two olders 16 years ago.  Check out that hair!

 I'm so glad I found my Mojo, it was a little sleepy but I think it's back. 

Thanks for stopping by.

Tia

This one is for the color challenge at CSI.  It's been a while since I did something shabby or distressed, this has a little of everything.  The picture is of my Aunt Margot and myself back in 1962.  I love this aunt of mine.

Thanks for stopping by!

To all the beautiful mothers out there. 

About a Boy - Unmistakable You!

This one is for About a Boy challenge, I just love that I found this Challenge blog also.  I needed to scrap pictures of my son as a baby and a boy, after all he just finished his first year of College, away from home.  So I have a lot of scrapping to do.  

Thank you all for stopping by!

About a girl May 1st ----My Two Girls

This one is for another challenge blog I found on one of my favorite scrapper's blog Pat. It's  called About a Girl  and if you don't have a girls and you only have boys that's ok also she has one  called About a Boy. Y'all know I'll be playing there also, since I have boys also. But for now lets talk about the girls.

We had to create a LO introducing the girls in our family and in mine we have a lot of those, well in my extended family since my grandparents on my mother's side had 7 girls and 1 boy. This time is about my 2 beautiful girl Monica and Natalie.  

Thank you for stopping by.  

60s Fun

Did a little scrapping for NSD, even if it's Sunday.  This one is for a Challenge at a new Challenge blog I found, Scrap Africa.  I used the sketch from there.  Also, for the 2peas challenge of using something camera/photography related.  I added that little antique camera to my little cluster.

Sometimes, Stan the man likes to play a little.  But don't worry it's never a lot. LOL!

Thanks for stopping by.
