    Well he's a little broken (the antlers are kinda droopy from where the cardboard has given in). You can have him if we can arrange a good time to pick him up with my boyfriend, I myself have already moved out. PM me.

    Bars in Recoleta

    Just don't walk home alone at night, especially in Recoleta. I remember a thread on this forum a while back about a guy who got beaten up and robbed around Vicente Lopez just a few blocks from his house. Spending a little on a cab will save you a big headache later.

    A tale of good customer service

    Scam Artist Cab Drivers

    Brown Sugar....for cookies

    Brown sugar here is tricky. I made chocolate chip cookies with azucar integral from the dietetica, which was quite expensive. It had the same consistency as brown sugar (although more the color of golden brown) but not the same flavor. It almost tasted fruity... kind of like raisins. The cookies...

    Expat Names that sound strange to Argentines

    My last name has a double L in it, which is of course pronounced as just L in english, but here they say it with the sshhh (I don't know how to spell that sound) sound. It renders my name unrecognizable!
