I´m not sure how many posts I´ve made now about meat here in Argentina, but here´s another one.
My boss Alejandro had a cookout at his house a couple of weekends ago and the whole office went out for the day to hang out. His wife, Viviana, worked so hard to make SO much excellent food. We all left about 5 lbs heavier I think.
Alejandro lives in a town outside Buenos Aires in what they call a country – taken from country club. The neighborhood is a “closed neighborhood” which just means there´s a controlled gate at the front and inside the neighborhood they have access to lots of recreation activities. The children´s school is actually inside as well. It´s great for them because they can walk everywhere; Alejandro and Viviana don´t have to worry about the kids running around the neighborhood and all their friends from school live right in the neighborhood too.
I think in total about 15 of us went out to visit them for the day. It was a really nice and sunny day so we hung out in the yard, the boys played soccer and the girls played a dice game closely related to Yahtzee.
In the afternoon after we had all relaxed Viviana brought out a couple of mates and we all shared mates, ending the day. I´m really lucky to have made such good friends with my coworkers, it´s made the experience here so much richer!
