El Ateneo

I'm so sad I forgot to bring my camera today!

After a nice walk along Santa Fe, with some window shopping of course, I stopped at El Ateneo. El Ateneo was an old theater where many of BA's greats performed, and now it still has its original bones but has been made into a wonderful bookstore. I had a terrific lunch at the cafe, which is where the stage used to be.  I ate a delicious fugazzetta, that was amazing with some hot tea on this stormy day. Fugazzetta reminds you of Argentina's Italian heritage, with a BA twist. It's a rich cheesy pizza with onions and oregano.

Recoleta Crafts Fair

Another sunny Sunday in BA. And WOW, the crafts fair was so happening this afternoon! There was even live music playing, so many people sitting in the shade enjoying the great mid 70s weather with a breeze. I took a run through the park which was also packed with families, runners, rollerbladers, bikers, kids. So great!





Tea Connection


Tea Connection is a great place around the corner. Enjoyed a delicious chai there on Friday, will definitely return!

T.G.I.R.

Thank God its Raining!

Lightning and thunder for most of last night. So cool and nice today. Took a run (and some photos).
