Red Wine Diet

A new way to lose weight this summer is follow a new diet called "Red Wine Diet".
According to the autor, Roger Corder, red wine has tannins who help to our body to reduce heart diseases especially when combined with healthy eating.
He also says that just a few kinds of red wine are effective, some of them are Malbec, Madiran, Cabernet Sauvignon, because they are made with " smood, ripe or firm tannins"
Many famous people prefer this diet because is easier and more indulgent than other diets.

Fiestas Patrias

I had a really nice time last september, it was our "Fiestas Patrias" something like "The Independence day of Chile". This year was almost the whole week free, so most of the people went out of Santiago.
I spent the most of the time with my relatives in the city. We prepaired some chilean dishes like empanadas, anticuchos and asado. We also drank chicha. All was very tasty I think i ate a load of food, probably i put on weight.
It was a great time for share with all the people i care and enjoy this celebration.

Probably next year i`m going to practice more cueca because now i don´t know how to dance it and maybe visiting some fonda too.
