So, it’s 2am EST and I just turned in my revised manuscript for my dissertation…. what are you up to? Me? Now I gotta wait until probably Tuesday when what is now a tentative defense date will either become definite or I’ll end up with a new date. I’m hoping it will become definite; I [...]

The Lambies go to Fenway!

Baseball has always been a part of my life. Papi used to take us to the Hiram Birthorn for the MLB exhibition games and we always hoped Puerto Rico would get an MLB team. In the meantime we would be die hard fans of the Puerto Rican winter league Cangrejeros de Santurce! On the MLB [...]

Yes folks, I’m alive. You see after being cooked up in the house for 3 months, we needed some air. So I turned in the first draft of the first manuscript (there are two) of my dissertation; and I also ran the data for the second manuscript. Guess what? The data did what I predicted [...]
No Meat on Fridays
Posted in Adriana, Religion, tagged Religion on April 10, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I was raised to be a good Catholic. As such we abstain from meat on Fridays during Lent. I do a bit more, since I really REALLY like eating shellfish, I don’t consider that a fulfillment of my abstinence, because I’d really be enjoying what I’m eating. I don’t know I feel it defeats the [...]
Waiting for Opening Day!

Even for some of my passions like baseball, life is on hold. But that one I don’t control. However, I’m 100% ready for our home opener against Tampa Bay. Yes folks I’m a proud card carrying citizen of Red Sox Nation. See how ready I am? As ready as Lowell, Beckett, Pedroia, Youkilis and BIG [...]
Life on hold
Posted in Adriana, Alan, Our Story, tagged Adriana, Our Story, PhD, Us on March 31, 2009 | 3 Comments »
For the past month our life has been literally “on hold”. Why? Very simple. I’m finishing this thing called a Ph.D which has this other thing called a Dissertation. While the PhD programs demands commitment and time throughout your 4 or 5 years, nothing really compares to what it demands on the last stretch. By [...]
I get Cravings…

No I’m not pregnant, YET. But every once in a while, the Cuban blood in my veins thumps around for something in particular. Something that I’ve not had in a while. Today it was Pan con Bistec. In Miami I would go to the Sergio’s in Bird Road, the one across the Bird Bowl. Man, [...]
Beer!!!!!!!

It seems we have found the place we will call home for our first year in Rochester. It’s nice, it’s cozy and It. Includes. Heat. Trust me, that’s a very good thing and a savings of about $1200 per year. Nada mas con el testigo! as Papi use to say. In other news, we went [...]
Searching for a NEW home

Many of you know (or not) that I will be joining the faculty at RIT this fall (yay for me!). So next week during our Spring Break we will be visiting Rochester to search for our new apartment! We are so very excited about the trip! Not only because duh, we’ll be looking for a [...]
Creating My First Crockpot Recipe!
Posted in Adriana, Cuban, Recipes, tagged Crockpot Recipes, Cuban Food, Lent on March 7, 2009 | 11 Comments »
A while back I had asked Marta if she had ever used the crockpot for ablandar frijoles. You see, while I can make MEAN frijoles negros, I am ashamed to say they come out of the can – the Goya con agua y sal can that is. But everytime I’ve tried to make it out [...]
