    Bodensee Restaurant

    Looked up the reviews online...and they say either that it's great with huge portions OR that it's horrible and not worth the money. Anyone here actually go there?

    Is today a holiday or, something? My building is eerily quiet for a Monday.

    Yom Kippur is actually this coming Friday, the seventh. However, we noticed everything a bit subdued this morning ourselves. We had to dodge far less erractically driven cars aiming for us when crossing the streets on the way to school.

    Macaroni and cheese

    My account is acting wonky, so I hope you can see this! My son is twelve and misses Kraft mac 'n cheese greatly. We have gone the Mama Lucchetti route, but it is really not the same. There is a jarred, processed 'cheese' called Cheezy Spred ( yes it really is spelled that way!) that when heated...

    How smart are Argentine cats?

    What a gorgeous cat! Such interesting markings, too. We inherited a cat when we moved into our place, and though he is sadly not with us anymore, he was smart as a whip. He, too, could open doors and since he preferred fresh water, he would attempt to turn on the faucet. One morning I was...

    Scarey exciting thing happened to me today

    Oh my gosh, I am so glad you're ok. How scary...how are you feeling at the moment? As for Recoleta: I work on Alvear and there is stuff going on every single day. It's open searson, er...tourist season, after all. :rolleyes:

    Tecnopolis

    I was there yesterday. When the man handing out 3D glasses for a film we were going to see noticed that we didn't speak Spanish too well, he pointed us out to a woman doing demonstrations...who was able to give us the tent's tour in English. I thought that was rather nice and, to be honest...

    Sign That My House is Going to be Robbed?

    Hey, the security cameras are a really good idea! And I agree, it is probably nothing. I guess what rattled me was it's cramped, odd location, and how I have never seen that particular mark before. I also have been involved with more crime these past eleven months than in my whole life combined...

    Sign That My House is Going to be Robbed?

    No worries. I may have only been on this forum (and Bs As, for that matter) for only a year, but I am not new to forums in general. If someone new (aka 'Fresh Meat') asks a stupid question, frequently the more established members will dogpile and poke fun. I have gotten a lot of good advice and...

    Sign That My House is Going to be Robbed?

    Thanks! Yes, my house holds my son, my girlfriend, an old collie, and a slightly gassy kitten. No big dog, no doorman, no beefy hubby...though I admit the house itself is secure. We are only concerned when coming in and out of our main gate. But yeah, I really am overly cautious...usually we...

    Sign That My House is Going to be Robbed?

    I know I sound paranoid (and if you all wanna laugh go ahead). I have always come here for support and questions when things have come up. I am going to ask if I am not sure about something, as this is about the safety of my child and myself/ just plain piece of mind when I am away I am...

    Sign That My House is Going to be Robbed?

    I came home from taking my son to school to see this scribbled next to my front door with a crayon-like medium. Maybe it was there when I left, not sure, but it was most definitely not there yesterday. Should I be worried? Maybe it is just a kid being a hood wannabe, but I am afraid I am being...

    Imported Good Shops Practically Out of Business!!

    I work on Alvear and we're suffering since part of our wages are based on commissions. We have had a real problem getting our merchandise as well.

    Eating on a budget

    Same here: two adults, one preteen and two pets...and we usually eat at home. We noticed our bill starting to skyrocket about two months ago, and began doing minimal shopping at the box stores when possible. Now we get our fruits, veggies, eggs, and meat at the little neighborhood shops. It has...

    Need to Talk to 6th Graders About U.S. Culture

    I just got home from my talk to my son's class and it went really well. Thanks to all for your suggestions. I also brought the peanutbutter cookies and threw together a batch of banana bread and the kids went wild. Thanks again!

    Psoriasis in Argentina

    Oh gosh, how horrible! Nope, we use good Loreal Professionals because Ryan cuts my hair and would skin me alive for using Sedal. HAHAH! Actually, now that I think back, this hasn't been the first time he has had these symptoms. He had them in the U.S. as well, but not this severe. Do they...

    Psoriasis in Argentina

    Thanks, joelie for sharing your story. I edited my post above because I realized later that it wasn't too clear. :confused: Turns out that he has guttata psoriasis and not the more severe form. I was told this over the phone because my partner took my son to the doctor, not me. I was going...
