It sounds divine, Eduardo.
V-8 always a good idea (lots of potassium!).
Chocolate and raisins: a favorite combo.
You are very much making me tempted to apply to McD. Too bad you can't bring along your family.
You are making me very antsy to get to my writing retreat, which I have scheduled for early March. At this particular colony the cottages have those gas fireplaces. Wimpy, but I would be a little nervous about lighting an actual fire. Hope you don't burn down your studio!
