I’ve been quiet for a while and there has been a reason. Well, there have actually been may reasons but mostly I really haven’t been cooking much and I’ve been keeping a secret. And the secret I’ve been keeping is the main reason why I really haven’t been cooking that much; that together with my [...]

Cuban Home Economics
Posted in Adriana, Our Story, tagged Adriana, Alan, Cuban Upbringing, Our Story on September 15, 2010 | 1 Comment »
My friend Marta has two great posts on how Cuban girls get groomed to be the Perfect Cuban Wife (PCW) through intense training on Cuban Home Ec. So, it got me thinking about my own Cuban upbringing, and how I’ve supplemented or added to it, through the years. I graduated with HONORS from the Cooking [...]
Finally, I graduated

Last Saturday May 22, I was officially conferred my Doctorate by the University of Rhode Island. Even though it’s been almost a year since I defended my dissertation, I was really looking forward to the graduation ceremony (and also to being back in RI). Unfortunately no one in my family came. Well, I lie. My [...]
Back in Time

I’m not much for Halloween. I did the usual as a kid, you know the trick or treat, but I wasn’t really big on decorations or costumes. Probably still traumatized by the time my parents and grandparents thought it would be a good idea to have a Haunted House for my birthday. You see I [...]
Nearing the end of an era

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 [...]

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 [...]
Take me out to the ballgame…

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 [...]
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 [...]
