Argentinean Night

Last monday we had Bárbara's "Cooking for the team"...

and as I went to Argentina in 2004, I decided to cook argentinean food and have an argentinean night!! :)
So... with the help from Maju (@GV) and Iritzi we prepared ALFAJORES...


And with help from Tai (@IT) and the Hikers we prepared "Pescado al vino" (yes! fish boiled with wine)



Then we had the food...



Argentinean WINE :D


The ALFAJORES as dessert...



And then... pictures, Argentina's presentation, stories from my experience there...



Lots of music... tango, cumbia, cuarteto, rock argentino, folklore...
(and dance classes)



Thanks Hikers for sharing this moment with me!! :)

Gabiru sharing his passions...

We implemented a very cool schedule of activities in our MC team...

We call it "Momentos de Calidad"... and they are moments when we have our team together to do something really nice.

So, we have 2 kinds of "Momentos de Calidad"... and we have 1 activity per week, alternating between the 2 kinds...

This way, we have "Sharing my passions" and "Cooking for the team"...

"Cooking for the team" is when the MC member is resposible for cooking something for the whole team... we can cook food from our countries (or regions in Brasil), from countries we've been to... or simply something that we really like to eat (and cook!) to share with the team

"Sharing my passions" is a moment when the MC member chooses something he/she likes to do and invites all the team to do together with him/her.

So... this week we had the 1st Momento de Calidad... when Gabiru shared his passion with us...

He prepared a night of playing pocker!!!

All of us learnt how to play pocker... and we bet "War coins" (yes, that small red, blue, green, etc. ones from War game... hehehe)

So... some pictures for you...

The cards are ready...


Gabiru preparing everything...


Then, classes for those who didn't know how to play

The guys, very concentrated on the game

How can I win something with these cards??? :P


Juli was the big winner... (people here call it "sorte de principiante"... hehehe)


Thanks Gabiru for sharing your passions!!! It was very nice to play with you guys!! :)


And the next activity is going to be Bárbara Cooking for the Team!! (It's going to be an Argentinian Night! :D pictures here soon)

MC is painting the House!!

Yes, it's exactly that: we'll paint the house this weekend!!!

Does anybody want to help?? You're welcome!!!

Just come and join us... for sure it'll be lots of FUN!!!
