Good Morning, Darlings!
Recently, I have been getting so much advice on monetizing the blog that sometimes I just want to scream. I don’t want sell stuff just for the sake of making a few pennies here and there. Plus, I am so woefully bad at it.
But, I am always online looking for cool new stuff for my parties! This Labor Day we will be hosting a paella party for a passel of friends. Maybe 40, maybe 70, who knows? What I do know is that it will be a ball. And that I have got to get cracking on finding the freshest ingredients for our humongous paella pan.
Last year we had a devil of a time locating spanish chorizo. The kind that does not dissolve when cooked.
Guess what?? I found it online this week! The folks at La Tienda offer about a gazillion types of tantalizing spanish chorizo, just perfect for our paella soiree. Yay!
And I almost fainted when I spied the Extra Large Paella Burner. Who knew? Okay, I don’t know if we will be picking this up with its hefty $285 price tag, but golly, it would sure make things easier. We will probably still cook the paella the old school way, over a blazing fire (please, Mother Nature, make it cool this Labor Day).
But all our chorizo will come from La Tienda, for sure. Ole, y’all!
Eric and Teague man the paella station last year. Action shot!
Monetize, smonetize. Lets have fun!

Today blogging to Aretha Franklin – Spanish Harlem
Amen, when did sharing content become all about monetization? I just do my twitter stuff for fun!
Thanks, Wendy. I am so sick of hearing about making money from the blog. I figure it will come when it comes. Like when Oprah calls. LOL. xoxoxo, P
