That time in Patagonia was magic - it was OH's and my last 'just the two of us' fieldwork trip before we started a family. The biggest highlight was bathing in a glacially cold lake up in the Andes with condors wheeling overhead... the scariest moment was camping in a tiny tent in a forest that we then discovered contained a roaming herd of VERY large and enthusiastic Hereford cows with a still larger and more enthusiastic bull in attendance. There is something about lying in a sleeping bag with just a layer of canvas between you and something huge and heavy-breathing that knows you are there and that you know will trample you flat if you alarm him... still, at least he wasn't a bear. And eventually the cows got bored and wandered off, and he followed them. I guess that's the price you pay for tasty free-range steak...
And thank you so much for being generous with your recipes! *bounces excitedly* It may be a while before I'm up to actually cooking it, but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy reading it in the interim!

And yes, I agree: he's a keeper. &hearts
The time in Patagonia just sounds absolutely amazing! Slightly terrifying, with regard to the cow and bulls, but I'm glad it all turned out well. And that's the material memories are made of, isn't it? What a fantastic experience!
And it's my pleasure to pass it along! I love sharing recipes with people who will enjoy them. :D
