Caramel & Cocoa - another life blog

My name is Gabriela. I started a simple blog in 2009 when I moved from California to Madrid and then London. It was a way to connect with my friends and family from afar. That evolved into a “mom- life” blog. It was fun. I grew older and time marched forward. I moved back to California and focused on my career. There has been less time for blogging  but now I am choosing to make the time because I like to write and it is a low cost activity. I am a better writer than  speaker.  Let’s see how this goes. 

When my daughters were 2 & 3 they had these teddy bears called Caramel and Cocoa. As a young mom,  my life revolved around the girls and these two bears. I had two more kids in 2013 and 2022.  Caramel was lost in the Mission Valley shopping mall in San Diego circa 2016 (under the watch of my husband). But the name has stuck - over all these years.
