Hello My friends, last day of March, and also almost one month since I get here, WOW... Right now as Usual I'm babysitting Emma, today I have cramps, I don't want to babysit, but what I can do?' Did I mention that Emma's dad is here... well... But today I don't want to talk about my situation here, I want to talk about D'Stefano, my favorite Italian Restaurant... When I come here, we always go there and I love it, In Caracas I don't know any restaurant like this one, there are a few Italian restaurant, but as good as D' Stefano. I always ask the same, Gnocchi with any kind of sauce, my favorite are the white ones, and also the lasagna so good... and the salads are good also, Everything is so good at that restaurant. We went this weekend, and it was crowd, but we stayed and had a good time there!!

Cinnabuns, Cinnamon, Cinnarolls?

First to all I don't know the right way to call them, So I'm gonna call them Cinnarolls, because that's how I know it for most of my entire life. For a long time I wanted to make them but for one reason or other I never could, so when I saw a post in a blog about cinnarolls, I decided that I wanted to make it. and I DID, and result was... well, let's wait to read the whole post and then you will figure it out. Let's start, I saw the blog, I copy the recipe, I TRANSLATE the recipe, then I went to the supermarket and get most of the ingredients, I went with my sister and Emma of course, and let's just say that Emma doesn't like to shop AT ALL, so basically, I ran around in the whole supermarket looking for the ingredients, with a fuzzy, whiney 1 years old, and I just grab whatever I saw it first, I get most if the Ingredients. but I couldn't find the activate dry yest, but well that's life. So I decide to make this recipe  , yes, you are right,

This are a few of my favorite things!!

My Family: When I think about my family I feel happy, I remember all of us celebrations, holidays, and reunions and I laugh, always is a new story to tell, always a new a joke, but the old ones are better, I feel blessed to have the family that I have. My job as a Nanny, every day I remember sometime about my kids, my boss, my experience as a Nanny, I don't know if I'm gonna be a nanny for the rest of my life but I don't mine, I will always gonna love my four Kids!! My Friends,  I miss my friends so much, I like to hang out, to make plans, and be able to talk with them, they  are the light of my life. My Niece, Emma is my life right now, I love her to the moon and back. My sister, I love my sister more than I'm able to explain, I'm glad that she is my sister, and I'm THANKFUL for everything that she is trying to do for me. Arepas,

Hi, I'm Alive, Venezuela

Sorry for not posting, is because my brother in law moved the router and now I do not have internet in my room, so is more difficult to blog!!! Well I wanna talk about Venezuela, Even though that I'm thousands of kilometer far away, I feel that I'm still there, we always talk about the situations, and my sister's friends also are Venezuelan, so Venezuela is always with us, and the social media always remains us what is going on there. The situation there is worse, after a month of protest the people don't give up and stayed in the streets, the national guard are fighting with guns and hundreds of people are going to jail just for protest!! Even worse, now the people can't find basic food, or medicine, so everything is empty, my dad told me that he went to the supermarket and he couldn't find something to eat, so He went back home with any food, and my mother told me that the other day my uncle went to several supermarkets just to get some toilet paper, s

First days in Spain!!

Hi my friends!! just for the continuity of my blog I will talk about my First days in Spain, but today my mind is in Venezuela, My poor Venezuela. Well I left Venezuela on Thursday, I had to do a stopover in Italy and then take another plane to Madrid... I did, the flight was so nice, I slept 4 hour of 10 and watched a movie, it wasn't so bad, then I finally get to Madrid and my sister was supposed to wait for me there, but I went out and she wasn't there, I waited for 10 minutes and she finally arrive, I hug her and immediately I see my sweet niece, and she was/is the most beautiful girl on the world, I carried her and hug her, and kiss her.... then we went to the hotel, leave our baggage and then we went to a dinner with my brother in law's family, they are so nice and kind people, I was tired but I had a good time there. Then we went back to the hotel, slept, and early that morning we flew to Tenerife, I get here and I was rested and I didn't have any jet lag

Goodbye Reunion

On Wenesday of last week, I was feeling sad, I spent most of the morning crying with my mom, I didn't wanted to do anything, But I had to go to my Aunt's house and say good bye to everyone!! All my clothes was packed so I borrowed some clothe from my sister, also that Day I didn't wear any makeup, I just was sad... But my cousins and Aunts (Mostly my cousins) had another idea, they made me a surprise goodbye "Party" I was so sad, but that made my day!! I love that they think about it, and took the time to do it, it wasn't something big or fancy, it just was a nice time with my family!! I love all of them, and I know that at some point I'm gonna miss them so much!! So I was glad that they did that for me.

Well last week was Carnival In Venezuela, with all the stuff that are going on down there, it didn't felt right to celebrate that holiday, but for the same reason it was an opportunity to get away for a few days of that mess, my family went to the beach house 4 days before me, I didn't wanted to spent my last days in Venezuela in the beach house, so they left first, I went to my cousin and we have a nice time there. My and My cousin chilling by the pool This was our Carnival Party My Cousin Birthday and Then, Back to reallity I went because my mother asked me to go, and I'm glad I did it

As you can see I change the "Name" of my blog, and I have to admit that I'm not sure if I did the right thing doing it, I hope so, I really hope that today will be the first day of my new life!! I'm here. not knowing what to expect, or what I'm going to do, to be honest right now I don't feel that this is now my life, I Feel that in 3 months I'm going back to Caracas, IS NOT WHAT I WANT, but I don't know, I'm being very honest is this post, I'm so confuse, scare, and when everyone ask me what I'm going to do here?,  how long I'm gonna be here?, what are my plans?, my only answer is I DON'T KNOW, because I don't. For other side I'm very happy to be here, see my niece, being with my sister, and just being here, let's god decide what is in my future, I'm in his hands!! Well this is a short post, I just wanted to let you now

At two days!!

Tomorrow it will be my last day of 24 hours in Venezuela and how I feel?? Honestly I don't feel a thing, I don't wanna think much about it... Today I said good bye to my Cousin/Best friend, and I was surprised that I didn't cry, I guess because I still dont believe that I'm really going forever, and That's because I'm not sure if I'm going be there FOREVER, I not have the security to be there more than 3 months, so I thinks Is for that, that I'm not sad, or excited or nothing!!! I'm just happy because I'm going to see my Sweet little pie, but that's all!! Today I finished the first suitcase, and the second one is almost done, tomorrow my dad is coming, I have to do laundry, and say goodbye to my aunts, uncles, and Grandma, I think that Tomorrow I'm gonna cry, but I'm not sure. I'm a little scare to leave not having it a plan, but well God knows best, and if HE send me there is for something!! I just want that you pray for
