Since we were mostly on the early American dinner time too, I looked on facturas as “early appetizers”! Our return to the US has been mostly quiet. And, unfortunately, our “thou shalt miss” list would be much shorter, while our “thou shalt *not* miss” would be quite long, including maybe even one or two you mention above (noise, in particular). I enjoyed our time in BsAs, but wished we all could have enjoyed it more. Maybe if it was planned as a sabbatical rather than two big-decision international moves in a year…

We generally didn’t partake of Merienda goodies as we were eating early American dinner to get our kids to bed early!! But, facturas are delicious, no doubt!! How are you doing by the way? How has it been for you returning to the US?

Medialunas only? I still miss the 5pm facturas (even though we ate at 7pm in BsAs) more than 4 months later… Oh for a panaderia in Omaha!

Khara! Love to hear from people who are reading the blog! We are moving back to Portland, in fact, Tom is yelling at me now that it’s time to go out and pound the pavement looking for a place to live. And the hair…I have to tell you that all of the Mom’s at the Z’s school in Argentina are telling me, “your hair looks much better now that it’s growing out.” Sigh. I’ve given up explaining that it was shortened against my will! *laugh*

Futbol, I have decided that one of your problems with your US experience was that you checked out the wrong part of the country. You need to hang out with the some progressive people in Portland or Seattle! But hey, don’t let our getting on with life stop you from not getting on with yours!! (*laugh* You do know that I am just kidding and truly, and am just jealous since we really don’t want to have to earn money again, we just have to. *laugh*) Same goes for you — you need something from the left coast of the US, say the word.

Barbara, I wanted to thank you for all of your lively comments over the last year! And, yes, it was a lively transition — 30 degrees F and freezing fog is a big transition. But it feels like Christmas, on the other hand!

Jorge! Great to hear from you. Sarah said you guys might be looking to move back to the US — I hope that all works out. Best to you and yours this holiday season! Besos.
