It’s been a while since we last posted. The adventures have been continuing and the photos are piling up. I feel a bit guilty we haven’t shared in so long. I’ve used this time to post more photos on our Instagram account, but also I needed a break from sharing outwardly to process what’s happening […]

Day 7 in The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
So we fancied it up today and actually made a white cheesy sauce to have over pasta! Yeah that’s right we made macaroni and cheese from scratch in our van down by the river (well it wasn’t much of a river, more of a stream, but it was not that far away.). Before I dive […]
Day 6 in The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
Today was a continuation of trying to diagnose Lola’s issues. So we didn’t really venture too far from the van…all the attention is on Lola right now! Translation: I got a chance to hole up with the mystery novel I’ve started and Todd went around to different parts shops and called our trusted Sprinter […]
Day 5 in The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
This week, I’ve been getting the feeling that Alex is trying to show me up in the kitchen. When we started, we both decided that we would not try and make this food series anything special, just showing our normal routine food. Well she did it again, this time under the guise of our need […]
Day 4 of The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
We woke up this morning and it was cold. I could see the snow on nearby peaks. This means I waited an extra 15 minutes to get out of bed, which is hard for me! During those 15 minutes I kept thinking about My first goal: Make Coffee!!! Breakfast: Once I got up, after coffee, I […]
Day 3 in The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
Today was a pretty typical day when it comes to food, but not typical with regard to what we did. Today we visited the famed Perito Moreno Glacier. No one comes to Patagonia without seeing the Perito Moreno Glacier. This glacier is one of many coming off the Southern Ice Field, which is the largest […]
Day 2 of The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
Today is an unusual day, it is a layover day. We have only had a handful of these since we started our travels. A layover day means that we do not move Lola (we camp in the same location) and we may try to catch up on housekeeping, or just relax from driving every day. […]
Day 1 of The Rambling Larder’s Week in Food
When we travel, food always seems to be a big part of our journey. On this trip the food and shopping for the food has given us an amazing entry and exposure into the culture. We have been feeling very fortunate that we are able to cook and maintain a larder. We love our fridge so […]
Thankful for this Adventure & Food
You’re probably waking up thinking of all the cooking and preparation ahead of you today. So are we! I have been thinking about Thanksgiving for the last couple of weeks. It’s especially hard to remember that it’s fall in the US because it is a beautiful spring in Argentina right now! I think I’m hanging […]
First Vanlife week in South America: Crossing the Grand/High Sierras of Argentina
Challenges/Amusements of this week: driving in Argentina, figuring out how to find campsites, communicating in Spanish, rapidly changing climate, and regulations of national parks (it hasn’t really been challenging and not bad at all, these are just differences we’re getting accustomed to) Getting out of Buenos Aires has been freeing. Don’t get me wrong, the […]
