Excelente entrada, Armando. Y excelente blog. Acabo de conocerte a través de Dejaboo. Te incluiré el links entre mis favoritos en www.elfogondemeg.blogspot.com. Un saludo
Armando, hace tiempo que no entraba en tu blog. Pero no lo he olvidado. Pásate por el mío de elfogondemeg, porque tengo un regalo para tí.
Entretanto, ¿podrías hacerme una pequeña colaboración para el blog, sobre los platos que se cocinaban en el imperio de Moctezuma?. Por supuesto firmado por tí y con el nombre de tu blog.
Me encantaría enriquecerlo con tus aportaciones. Ya verás, cuando entres de nuevo, que he abiertto una sección de "Colaboraciones" donde ya he publicado algunas otras.
Gracias por todo. Feliz semana y te espero en mi blog.
