Finde de carne, empanadas, caiparinhas y muy buenos amigos

The weekend started with an asado with the roommates on Friday.

John teaching Marisa how to blow on the fire to make it larger

And was followed by another asado on Saturday with Lourdes and Lluis before they went traveling for a few weeks and eventually to Barcelona in the end of December.  Bruno manned the parrilla and cooked up some phenomenal empanadas tucumanas (fried and more juicy and spicy than typical empanadas).

On Sunday, John and I went to San Telmo in search of a mortero (mortar and pestle) to make some caiparinhas…and there was success!
