Bearwoman was one of the sweetest people I met here... She passed on June 10, 2020, I think... She is one of the VERY few people worth remembering, on this site... She could "read" people very easily, and always treated everyone in a respectful way... Even the most bitter, hateful members... She was super funny, sweet, decent, respectful, witty and sooo wise... Totally my kind of person...
Awwwwww... I am so happy that I could be of any help and that you liked it, Chat!... There are so many Venezuelan recipes that people don't know of and even a dish as simple as the Venezuelan arepas, won the best breakfast in the world!...
Venezuelan Chicha is absolutely delicious, but I am also super happy that you added your own twist to the recipe... I know those frozen cups will be to die for!...
Chat, there are other countries that have "Chicha" in their recipes, like Colombia, Ecuador... And then, there are other latin countries that make "Chicha" but it consists of fermented corn, also adding some liquor (Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Perú and also in Venezuela, but we call that variety: "Chicha Andina")... I know they make rice pudding in Brazil... But, I am not sure about "Chicha"... Probably they have a similar kind of beverage but with a different name...
Chat, "Chicha" is sooooo good, that it doesn't need anything, to be honest... Absolutely nothing on top... Not condensed milk, not cinnamon, not strawberries... But, I am also open to try anything and I love strawberries, so, I would definitely try it that way!... But, really... That thing is sooooo delicious, the only thing it needs is you, to enjoy it...
My sweetest Ozzie... I had already left for a few days, but someone messaged me to come read your comment... All I can say is that I am speechless... You have been absolutely and unbelievably adorable, nice, sweet with me from day one and I only have kind, loving, respectful words for you... Thank you, thank you, thank YOU; for being that perfect catch yourself, because what I have returned to you is exactly what I have gotten from you and that is just wonderful things... Please, never let any bad circumstances or experiences change you... Only for better... There is something that I certify every single day of my life: We receive or get back everything we send or put out there in the Universe... Everything... And again, I can only be grateful for the wonderful feedback I get every moment of my life, online and offline... Thank you, always...
Johnny, I have never wanted to be or have been part of a relationship that was not long term... And that is not going to change any time soon... I was raised in a family with traditional values and my parents were married for over 54 years, until my dad passed away... I can't be grateful enough for having been part of such a wonderful love story... Regarding feminists, I prefer to keep my opinion to myself, but I think the saying: "Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it." applies to them... I absolutely adore being part of a loving couple with all its "goods", "bads" and "in betweens"...
3) IF you are, we have "Sangría La Caroreña", for you... It's made with wine and combined with fruit juices and a little or a lot of alcohol, I have no idea, because I don't drink...
Kornbluth... I cordially and respectfully invite you to show me WHERE I made anything sound like anything... I posted a video of a group of people who are visiting and showing just ONE of Venezuela's natural beauties and wonders, which are so many and so unbelievably beautiful, that you can read in the youtube comments, how people say it even looks like a place that does not belong to the real world... Angel Falls is just one of many of God's gifts to this blessed land and it will not shrink or dry whether I like or dislike the political situation... And I apologize, but I have no idea of who Daniel Duquenal is...
9 astonishing places that inspired classic Disney movies
"9/9 Angel Falls, Up, Disney 2009 The Disney movie Up was inspired by Angel Falls in Venezuela’s Canaima National Park. Not surprising really, considering it’s the highest waterfall in the world. The Churum river teeters over the top and free-falls for a gut-wrenching 979 metres. You might think head-in-the-clouds height gave this magnificent waterfall its name, but it was actually named after pioneering pilot, Jimmy Angel, who’s famous for making an emergency landing on the top of Angel Falls in 1937. Fast forward 70 or so years and Disney has Carl Fredrickson replicate the daring feat in Up. But, as every kid knows, it’s his house he lands at the top of the waterfall."
Mic, I am so going there and also to the other side of that same state (Bolívar) to visit the Roraima Tepuy...
Tepuys are the most ancient rock formations on earth... Over 2.8 kms high, you literally have clouds beneath your feet, when you get to the top... And it was the place that inspired "The Lost World" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.. "In southern Venezuela's tepuis – the sandstone, table-topped mountains that inspired Sir Arthur Conan-Doyle's novel The Lost World – travellers still feel like 19th-century explorers."
This is what one of the companies that organizes the trip to Roraima says about its difficulty...
"This Trekking is considered Level 3 on the Difficulty scale (The levels of difficulty are expressed in ascending order where 1 is very easy and 5 is very difficult) so the question always comes up: Is it necessary to have a good physical condition to do this? trekking?
The answer is "Yes", many people are not used to or have never done this type of activity due to their city lifestyle, but this does not make it impossible for anyone who wants to make the trip, you just have to prepare physically beforehand (at least 1 month before), since the route will be more than 65 km that will be carried out in 6 days carrying a bag lying down, hiking up to 8 hours in 1 day, crossing rivers, walking on steep slopes and difficult steps, spending the night at open air with temperatures that can reach up to 5º (at the top of the tepuy), reaching a height of up to 2,820 meters above sea level. That is why we must be physically and mentally prepared to enjoy this beautiful activity without it becoming a sacrifice or a bad experience for you and the group.
It is not recommended for people with respiratory or heart problems."
Only a few very special people have gone there... And this maracucha will be one of them...
Well, I can't think of a more beautiful place to spend my last moments on earth, IF there were any engine issues... If you watch the video a little longer, you will see how the lady in the front seat can't stop crying... A couple of days ago I watched two videos of a mexican gentleman that went to the base of the waterfall and touched its wall... And he had to stop recording because he couldn't stop crying... That's how magical nature is and how generous it was with this blessed piece of land of ours...
You are adorable as always, Johnny... But you don't have to take my word... Just have to watch from minute 8:40 to minute 9:48... A little more if you want to see them landing at the top of the waterfall...
Sweet Mic... People here, call them (the wonderful individuals that rule my country and yours -at the moment-) "The Intestines"... They turn everything they touch into... Well, you know what...

RE: Photogenic much? That could be a problem.
I have the opposite problem... When people meet me, they always say I look waaaaay prettier in person...
