hard-boiled eggs, my friends. It's a subtle thing, but hard-boiled egg is a very popular suplementary ingredient for pizza, empanadas, salads, and a general filler for any situation. And bread. Bread with everything - white, processed, hard to digest bread - they love it.

Hi folks, A neighbour of ours recently abandoned their very sweet german shepherd and I really need to find her a good home. We are already struggling to care for a dog and a cat that were abandoned by other neighbours (a geriatric springer spaniel with health problems, and a gorgeous moggy) -...

Hi, There is plenty of talk about how difficult it is to buy US dollars. Does anyone know if there are they same kind of difficulties in obtaining Australian dollars or Euros? Thanks

I have some friends who always offer to get bumped, and they have scored free plane tickets, free five-star hotel stays, or vouchers for discounts for future flights at various times, and I think one time an upgrade to business class. Maybe you DO want to get bumped - especially if you offer!

It kind of bugs me that people say things like that you should go to Palermo to, more or less, be on the safe side. Before I arrived here, I took the advice from this board seriously that anywhere west of Caballito and you were getting into really rough territory, and that even Caballito was a...

As someone who has no vested interest, I just think this is plain hilarious! At least at the moment, nobody who should be taken seriously is getting hurt here. Aah, but the battle to see who has the most pride is quite funny.

So... The puzzle book, the book of card tricks, and Spanish for dummies, are all reserved. Everything else is still up for grabs, YAY!

I recently went to Cordoba on the train and thought I would share a little bit of my experience. This is probably only going to suit those who are on a tight budget though. I had to buy the tickets six weeks in advance (which wasn't a problem for us), but the return trip per person was only...

Hi, I have some books that I don't need/want anymore and am offering them up for free to whomever wants them. 1) A text book called 'Dos Mundos:en breve'. This is what it looks like: http://books.google.com.ar/books/about/Dos_mundos.html?id=olFHeb256d4C&redir_esc=y I didn't use it a lot only...

I ask people on the street about this, and while most of them say that they think Malvinas are Argentina (and I would agree, really - look at the map), I have not met one that thinks they are worth having a war about. Most have said that the Brits really don´t have a leg to stand on with...

Just walk around carrying a thermos and a mate, and people will not think you are a foreigner. Or brandish something odd like a broom (I've tried a feather duster, and yes, people look at you, but they don't expect that you are a foreigner - and won't come near you if you occasionally hold it...

I reckon they do with them what other countries do with homeless people when there's an Olympics on - they take them to places outside the main part of town - like San Justo or as far as Moreno - at least, that's what it seems like. There are not just stray dogs in Moreno, there are several...

My husband and I were able to rent an unfurnished place WITHOUT a garantia by paying six months up front in US$ (this was about a year ago). It was a two-year contract, but we only wanted to say there for six months (apparently for local, unfurnished rentals there is no such thing as a 6 month...

There must be something wrong with me..I didn't laugh. I did want to hit something though! Rhetoric without critical thinking is what gets us all (individually and corporately) into messes in the first place. If you want to kick out the old, you have to think and act in a different way, not...

So who took part in the B.A march in support of Occupy Wall street yesterday? (Saturday)

In our old apartment we would get phone calls for a particular person (I think from different people) who used to have that number, but after a time we got a call saying that someone had been in an accident and they had to talk to them (even though we had said they didn't live there) then they...

I don't have a phone at all so I don't need to worry about this. I do know at least one guy who carries his laptop and other valuables in a crappy looking plastic bag so no one suspects he has something of value in there. And he has not had a problem. I can imagine that others probably do so...

I have done similar when travelling to Australia i.e I entered Australia on my expired Australian passport (although I also had a valid passport in my other nationality which I was traveling with). At least in the case with Australia, they say they cannot deny citizens entry to their own...

Haha, I'm pretty glad I don't have garbage delivery either! LOL!
