I feel like I arrived late to the party.
You see, I discovered this whole world of food blogging a year two three four years ago. Whatever it was that I was looking for opened a new window, and another, and another… the amount of recipes, anecdotes and great photography was life changing.
Now I could clearly see a few things: first of all, I wasn’t the only person out there with never ending piles of magazines and cookbooks. That was a relief really. Second, I finally understood what all this technological progress could do for me.
So I decided to be part of this and started this blog thinking about all the food-related things I want to share. I write it in english though my first language is spanish. Probably because it will reach many more persons around the world.
I also have a spanish cooking blog, this one; through the years it has become an enormous supply of friends and good times.
I give credit to all the sources I use for recipes and if I omit something by accident, please let me know.

| My Cafe – 2010 |
I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. My name is Paula and I own sold a very small cafe that is was both a joy and a lot of work!
My other second job is in the decoration business. Handmade textiles. You can see some pictures here.
My real job is in the corporate world and not extrememly creative. Go figure.
You can email me, for whatever reason, to montenegropaula20 (at) gmail (dot) com
Glad you’re reading this blog and hope you enjoy it!
Jane: What a fabulous blog you have. Wonderful recipes, gorgeous photographs and so well written I can't believe English isn't your first language. I'm impressed and amazed!!
Paula, you have a wonderful blog. Sorry it took me a week after your very kind comment on one of my blog posts to take a look at your great blog! I also like the website of your café. Nice!
Paula, Your cafe looks so lovely…wish you didn’t live so far away, I’d love to sit at one of those tables and enjoy a cup of coffee! I didn’t realize English was a second language for you…your blog is wonderful and so well written!
Thanks Kathy!
Aww Paula, so nice meeting you through the comment you left on my site. Love it that you are in Buenis Aires. My son was there his freshman year in high school for soccer and LOVED everything about it. No empanada here in the States, even if made by me, measures up to the ones he had in Argentina! 🙂 Are you on twitter? Am @foodwanderings

Oh Marie, I´m so glad you left this comment and now we can be in touch! Thanks for such a warm comment and for the feature next week. Have a great week!
nice to meet you Paula. Your cafe looks so inviting!
Hi Paula, just discovered your blog through @lavenderandlovage. Now I'm worried about how much weight I'm going to put on – so many wonderful looking recipes! Great blog, good to have found it!
Always happy to find a NEW foodie blogger. Love your photos and will visit often. Especially for FFwD.
Hello beautiful! I've only just discovered your blog and it's just beautiful… honest, inspiring and truly delicious! One of my best friends (and her beautiful family) is from Argentina and I've fallen in love with the warmth and generosity of your culture. My husband and I regularly visit her house for 'asado', cooked by her dad, with chimmichurri and all of the trimmings! They also introduced me to dulce de leche. Oh my gosh. That stuff is addictive!!! I now have a permanent supply at my house, sometimes to be eaten straight from the jar with a spoon! Anyway, I could keep talking about Argentinian delights for ever, but thank you so much for sharing your beautiful recipes and stories. I look forward to reading more of your adventures as time goes on. Mucho gracias!
Oh Laura, thank you for such a nice comment! It´s always great to meet new friend and share our different cultures. Looking forward to sharing!
Hi Paula, I have only recently found your blog but I am so glad I have. Beautiful photography and recipes and your hand made textiles are gorgeous! I am looking forward to following your posts and trying out some of your recipes.

Me encanta que hays dejado un comentario tan lindo Felicia! Blogging from bs as is a bit lonely sometimes!
I know what you mean about it being lonely blogging from BsAs! Now we're blog friends in the same city! SO COOL!
Hi there Paula, just wanted to stop on by and see how your doing. Take care, BAM
Wow, I just looked at a feature you show where lots and lots of your recipes are posted on one page. Tastespotting I think it was. You have the most wonderful sounding collection of recipes I have ever seen on a food blog! Every single one of them must be tried!
Thanks so much for your blog.
