Soup Night

Spring started last week down here, we had a few almost Summer days and then... a cold front. So, we are having unseasonable weather. Yesterday we had mid-50s and today we are talking about mid-40s, low-50s. I decided to take advantage of the soup season a little longer.
Since I have a really hectic life, I always have a soup kit on my freezer. It is basically cubed meat and chopped vegetables, which are good starters for a yummy soup, right? At my cupboard I always have onion, garlic and potatoes.

My soup kit

Sauteed some onions and garlic

Browned the meat

Add the small potatoes

Added the vegetables, some spices, chicken broth and a splash of tomato sauce.

Simmered for about 80/90mminutes and we had a wonderful soup for dinner.

Happy Wednesday,

Pink Eye?

I am not sure if this is the right word for what I have. I have a virus on my eyes that is highly contagious. So I have a doctor’s note for me to stay at home for a week LOL….

I have two different eye drops to use for a week. And I can go back to the office next Monday. The doctor said that I don’t have anything that does not allow me to work; it is just that is highly contagious.

Since, I work in the IT area in an IT company with lots of technology available….I am working at home. I have a huge “To do” list and I am working my way around it.

By the end of the week, I will do a Pros and Cons of Home office : )

Happy Tuesday,

Weekend in Review

We've been doing a lot of sitting around this weekend.
Pau**lo is having back troubles again. He is back at the gym even with his crazy work schedule. But he still has a lot to work to get back on track.
Yesterday night we went to have dinner with a couple of friends in one of the hottest pizzerias in Sã**o Pa**ulo. I highly recommend if you are in the area.
Today, we had a quiet day at home, so we could rest and get ready for a whole new week (crazy week).

Have a nice week,

Fabiola
