It’s not a secret we spent the last month in Brazil. And one of the things I like the most when I get home after a trip is to seat in front of my computer, take another look at my pictures (as if I have not done it before) and remember the good moments.
There is a lot to say, a lot to share but I can’t do that at once.
So, here is the first part, a special entrée about Minas Gerais, my home state, with places we visited, food we ate and recipes we love!

Your blog design is such a breath of fresh air and I know it must take a lot of time. Can’t wait to see the recipe for the canudos and their filling. I want to eat them off the page!

Beautiful…Being a Brazilian myself those pics make me more and more homesick in this winterwithoutend days.

You are right, I need a lot of time to get a new entree done. But I enjoy it so much, and it’s such a joy to read comments like yours! Thanks and I promise to post the canudos recipe as soon as I can. I’m just planning a few things before but it’s already in my list!

Fala serio! I fell like you need a paypal button so I can deposit some money. I feel selfish consuming your beautiful posts for free. Are you a professional designer? Artist? I love your work and not just because minha Vo eh Mineira, and I miss Brazil like crazy and because canudos sao tudo de bom.
