Familia! I know, it’s been a while but the current times call for connection and as much as I have lovedhaving the last couple years to BE with my 3 babies, now is when I show my gratitude to youguys for always being so supportive and coming along for the ride. Now is when we connect.What we’re all going through collectively is hard to wrap my head around.…
Here we go with the pinches galletas but, here’s the thing; if they didn’t bring me so much joy and you wouldn’t ask soooooo many questions about them they’d be long forgotten. So here we are. Cookies are just that; cookies. But man, it’s brought me so much joy to make them and share them. I talked about this a little bit in our last meditation in Chula…
Well hello. I have no excuses. I’ve neglected the blog again. Life man. These kids. The book. The work. The travel. It is what it is. I think if you’re here you know that I just live life as it comes. I’m not very good at adhering to rules or schedules. I like to pretend I’m free. Any who, here’s a great recipe to get you in the…
Sponsored by Capital One Not having a clue about the cuisine and history about a place you are about to visit can create some anxiety but, at the same time, it can be incredibly exciting! I always walk into these opportunities with an open heart, an open mind and an open stomach! My recent trip to the Big Easy with Capital One was no different – and it…
This post is sponsored by Capital One Hola Familia! Como están? Do you miss me as much as I miss you? Well, I’m back here and checking in because I’ve done some serious traveling over the past two months that I’d love to share with you guys. If you follow on Instagram @chefmarcela you know not only every single detail about me and my kids’ life, but you…
It is most certainly the most wonderful time of the year. No doubt about it! At the beginning of November, I’m always debating how early is TOO early to put up Christmas but I always end up waiting until the week after Thanksgiving. This was just supposed to be a short post with a bunch of photos of photos of the Christmas décor but, you know me; I…
AND WE’RE LIVE! Welcome to the blog! Tonight is about the families that have been separated at the border and how we can come together as a community to support them, especially the children. Each of these links represents a family and their specific needs which, I’m sure, we can fill in the next few hours. Thank you for your generosity. It took a passionate group of incredible…
Hey lovelies, LOL because I’m always like, I’M BACK and then life gets in the way and I’m gone for two months. Two babies, a teen, a dog, a man and God-knows how many jobs sometimes make it impossible for me to get into the right headspace where I feel I can communicate with you from an honest place. Last week I opened up my home to adult…
GAH! I’m back! We’re back! And what a way to be back, with a partnership with one of my favorite brands on the planet… Target. I mean who doesn’t like Target? It’s like summer, who doesn’t like summer? Well, it’s been a heck of a summer! Between LA and San Diego and work and play I feel like the last 6 months happened in about 15 minutes. But…
I’m turning 39 next Wednesday. Thirty. Nine. … which is weird because half the time I barely feel like an adult! In my mind I’m still 21 and living in LA sometimes. You know, back when I could eat an entire pizza pie (true story) and not gain an ounce, or I could be out 4 or 5 nights a week and not even feel it. Now, three glasses…
