I am not a model, spy or assassin. I am just a mom who has too much on her plate and not enough sleep. Not very exciting, huh? I will try to make it relevant and funny. I said try, don’t kill me with high expectations. I get enough of that around the house from people who cant drink, vote or even drive.
I am feeling a lot less in exile these days. But my blog is still a mess of political and personal thoughts along with experiences of living in Argentina. While I can't promise, I will try to balance talk about my kids with something more universally relevant. And sorry if salty talk is offensive but I was a derivatives trader in another life and it cant be helped.

Hey what a great photo of you – and I love the new “up do” hairstyle. I leave reading about things outside my bubble. Keep them coming.

I came across your blog while doing research for revisions on my YA novel LIFE, AFTER which comes out from Scholastic Press next year. The first third of the novel is set in Buenos Aires during the economic crisis in 2001-2003. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed reading your posts and reassure you that I too have made several empty threats to my kids, all of which have come back to haunt me at a later date, which is why I’ve learned to stop making them!
Cheers, Sarah

Thanks for linking to my Orla Kiely post on Make It lovely. Nice to know some people can keep a sense of humor about such things.

Hello,
I’m from Canada, and have spent visited Buenos Aires 3 times since August/07, staying 5 weeks each time. I’ve shopped at “B. Madison” for bags at Rodriguez Pena/Juncal. I love their bags. But this April/09 when I visited, the store was gone and there was no info on its window front for any other branch. Do you know what happened to this store?. It was so good that I can’t imagine it closing down. I would appreciate any update or info you might be able to give me. Please e-mail me if you know anyhting at all about it.
Chau,
Beverley
