The wing festival



Hi family and friends! I know I know we haven't been blogging lately but honesty there really was nothing going on...ok I'm lying, the truth is that we have had a million things going on!
So last Saturday, we decided to go to the annual wing festival here in Albany! Those who know us well, know how much we love wings and more specifically know how many my wife could put down! Such a petite person and such a huge appetite lol!
So we took cash out (enough to make sure we could truly taste each and every one of the vendors) and headed over to the fairgrounds! We were really excited when we were able to here the awesome band playing in the background! So we got some beers and went over to the first "wing vendor". To our surprise they had ran out of wings, however with a pleasant smile offered us a pulled pork sandwich! We looked at each other and I read Monica's mind, as I anticipated her saying "no thanks we aren't at the pulled pork festival" I smiled and started heading with Monica to the next vendor. Ok, so to make this long and quite painful story truly short I will tell you that there was a total of 4 vendors with wings and not one had wings available for sale! After some pictures to document this event and a few laughs we debated between going to the best place in town for wings, which is mellow mushroom or going to Sam's and making them ourselves! Well we decided to go to mellow and we enjoyed some good wings (okay let me make sure I'm clear, the wings were good but nothing like buffalo wild wings or leeroy selmon)!
Please enjoy the pics of the annual Albany wing fest!

Moral of the story: We will be one of those wing vendors next year, we will shine and eat and hopefully show this people how eating wing is truly done :)

A broom and the salt bottle

So we finally moved this weekend! How is it that we still have so much crap??? The move is really what inspired this blog story. I've been with Monica for some years now and during those years, we have had MANY moves, so I still don't now how Monica's superstitious "Colombian" beliefs still amuse me! According to Monica's family, when one moves, they leave behind the old broom and the bottle of salt. The reason is because you leave the bad luck from the old home (symbolized by the broom and salt bottle) and you buy new ones representing the good luck that will come in the new home. The funny part is that I can probably write a book regarding Monica and her family's superstitions (spiders, flies, pearls, dolls, glass breaking, the list goes on and on, but those other stories will be for future blogs). For now let's focus on the broom and the salt. It was our first night in the new place, monIca and I decided to grill out in celebration for a ha...

An apple a day ....

So for those who actually come here and get updates about our crazy life I must start this blog by apologizing for the lack of stories. It is all Pete's fault!!! If he had not convinced me into buying an awful apple computer, there would be a phethera of stories posted but the awful computer first started acting slow and I do not have much patience so after waiting for what I consider an acceptable amount of time without success I would become frustrated and walk away. This happened several times and the result was me giving peter a dissertation (and a hard time) about the whole awful computer! So time passed by and finally the awful computer decided to prolong my misery and stop functioning entirely which left me with access to the web only via my iPhone. Blogging on the iPhone is no fun and The awful computer Is still nonfunctional laying On The floor somewhere out Of my sight in The guest bedroom! So in summary no blogs all because Of Pete and his charasmatic persuasión abilit...
