sun, salads, and shawn lichaa

perhaps i should reverse the order of the title, since shawn's arrival in BsAs resulted in salads and sun for PP. gracias shawn!

meals with shawn go like this: meet at lovely restaurant, order food, then learn about how unhealthy everything i ordered is. conclude with dessert and a live reading from a chapter in "Good Calories, Bad Calories." here we are doing all of the above at Cabana Las Lilas in Puerto Madero. it turns out that the 5 cheese-filled bread rolls i had are considered "bad calories."

after lunch, shawn went to work and i went to walk all over puerto madero -- muy bonito


in the lobby of the hilton puerto madero

then we met at a delicioso italian restuarant for dinner. shawn thankfully left "Good Calories, Bad Calories" at home, and we split a bottle of malbec, pasta and chocolate cake con helado. yum!

after dinner, we went to a tango show in la boca at "el viejo almacen."

to quote shawn: "they are so disorganized"

but, the show was entertaining enough. here are some moves that i thought shawn and i could easily handle. until i pulled a thigh muscle.

making our own souvenir

here is what i learned when i woke up at a decent hour saturday morning -- argentine saturday morning tv consists of macaulay culkin and ...

the jackson 5 on vh1. throwback!

after rocking out to my favey jackson 5 hit -- "oh baby give me one more chaaance," ya know -- shawn and i went to brunch at cuteville la sirop folie in recoleta.

to quote shawn: "these are the best eggs of my life!"

we went for a walk in the barrio, and shawn spotted a pile of "peras gigantes."

apparently his pera gigante was delish.

and here i am having finally gotten a banana liquado. ian -- SO GOOD!!

shawn sadly had to go back home before i could take him on more adventures. leech, you rock guapo! te echare de menos. y discubrire que es una amarena.

in conclusion, i couldn't resist:


xoxo!
