Welcome

Welcome to my blog!

As an American expat in Chile I'm often intrigued, and even perplexed by food here in Chile. Whether I'm just trying to figure out how to say "cornmeal" in Spanish or trying to wrap my head around why someone would enjoy eating blood-sausage, I've been learning a lot along the way.

While I always enjoyed cooking in the US, living in Chile has made me look at it a whole other way. When bagels and Reese's peanut butter cups are not readily available, one can get creative. So, that's what my blog is about. I'll not just be presenting recipes and good places to eat, but trying to help other expats find their much needed ingredients and suitable replacements if they're not readily available.

Suggestions, comments, and criticisms are more than welcome.

Enjoy!
