My sister Catalina went back to Medellin, Colombia today 🙁 The house feels really lonely and we miss her already. She stayed with me for a whole month and I got use having her around. We had a great time! We all hope that she can comeback soon.

Now, lets talk about food. There is a restaurant in Colombia that we both love called J&C Delicias. They make arepas with every topping imaginable and one of her favorite arepas is topped with cerdo and camarones, so I made it for lunch and we loved it! Enjoy!
