How amazing it is to see an idea grow into a tangible reality. It all started six months ago when we gave ourselves a book from one of our favorite Chefs, Francis Mallmann. The poetry of his books, our love of outdoors, good food, healthy environments, community gatherings, music, friends and arts, are some of the ingredients we wanted to combine for our next adventure.
There is nothing more fun and interesting than a new adventure. Specially one that the main purpose is to make other people’s life better. For those reasons you can always count with Us. This adventure started with a call from Jennifer Lauren from The Family Center/La Familia, which is an organization that is dedicated to help parents who are in need of a daycare and can’t figure in their financial plans a place. We had no idea what where where getting ourself into, but as much as we are not about competing, the other part that we are really interested… helping. So we where sign up for the Chef Challenge for Children.
This adventure has been a rather interesting one… it all started with a full goat from Homestead Ranch, to butcher at home. This was definitely something new for us. Juli has not done this kind of butchering since Culinary School, and me, I had never even thought on having to do it, unless it was for survival. But you know life presents with this interesting surprises. Full on board with a small Youtube investigation on when and how to start, the adventure had already begun… it took us about 3 to 4 hours to do the work, but we where ready. I have to say that it was not easy for me to do this, and I do not know if this is something I would like to get myself into again. But never the less an experience for sure.
This has been our first surprise birthday party that We remember and We have to say that the family members did an awesome job at keeping it a surprise!! What an amazing time we had. We did not know what to expect, until we got to the house next to a lake and what a great view!!
What a great opportunity to do an event for such a great Real Estate Company. We love any kind a culinary adventure and this one was not an exception. A new residential development called Kechter Farms by Toll Brothers is happening here in Fort Collins and you all should go and take a peak!!
All the idea came out of as a great surprise from Dawn Marie Duncan who asked if we wanted a write up for the May Edition On Scene Magazine… The answer was more than obvious!!! haha =D
Little have we been around this amazing City of Fort Collins, and the way it has embraced us is something we take our hats off and bow with our hands in our hearts, as we say Thank you.

We have arrived to December 23rd in our December Party Rush and we are with one of our favourites of all times Savant Homes Inc. We had the honor to create their Christmas Company Dinner. Boy it was something fun!!!
There are a few things that one must love about what they do, but this last Friday was definitely one that we loved being part of it… SpokesBUZZ CD Release VI. It all started with a call from this amazing person, Taylor Walker, who was mainly putting all the show together, We where asked to donate our time for an amazing cause… so when we knew we where going to be a wagon on the train to help young musical artist have a shot on performing their passion, we could have never refuse!! As we love helping people perform…so we tied our Juli y Juan wagon to the SpokesBUZZ Train an decided to share our culinary passion.
….“Going once, going twice…. SOLD for $5000 dollars!!” said Reggie Rivers as Juli & I were in total awe about what just had happen. I could not think on anything else to do than to Kiss Juli, get up of my chair around the table and hug some of the most amazing supporters life has put in our path; Alan & Kim Strope from Savant Homes.
Nothing like waking up at 4:30 am, kicking the rooster up of bed and saying hello to Mr. Sunshine 2 hours after… once we have breakfast in the table. In this incredible morning we catered early risers amongst the world of building and everything that goes around it. We where amongst the best of the region. Alan & KimStrope offered one of their dream Savant Homes to host a NAHB Professional Remodelers meeting…
