Yo Soy Betty La Fea

Dear Betty, why am I so addicted to you? I know I’m probably seven years late to this phenomenon, but ever since your repeats came on about 2 months ago, you are permanently fixed on my DVR. Now I understand why you had a cult following all over the world. I don’t think any other version compares to you, especially NOT La Fea Mas Bella (Televisa 2007). Tú eres la original. La historia me encanta, pero los DIALOGOS!!! los personajes!!!… OMG!! Qué manera de manejar el idioma. Son verdaderas clases de español. Quiero ser como el guionista que te escribió, Betty. Ya me sé la historia, ya sé que voy a llorar cuando Don Armando te rompa el corazón, hago corajes con la Marcela…pero aqui sigo…adicta todas las noches. Nos vemos a las 10.

My favorite Mexican restaurant

La Loteria Grill is one of the best places to eat authentic Mexican food in LA. And that’s not just my opinion but also Zagat’s, LA Magazine, etc. etc. Its owner is a very talented ex-marketing pro who turned restauranteur, Jimmy Shaw. I’m sure you’ve read some of the good reviews since they’ve been around for a few years.  Their new location on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood is quite nicely decorated, spacious and airy. It’s perfect for a Sunday breakfast, as I recently discovered. They also have the original Farmer’s Market location, which is also comes in handy for satisfying your enchiladas suizas craving. Y hasta tienen tacos de papa con epazote y chicharron de queso por ejemplo. Find them on the web at www.loteriagrill.com. And I don’t get any commission from this!
