Catching up
September marks my fourth anniversary of Making La Madre. A site, an insta handle and a little piece of the internet where I get to explore how my role as ‘mom’ intersects with my career, culture, relationships, identity & sometimes food + style.
I have gained some new followers over the summer and wanted to share a look back at a few of my favorite posts from the past couple years. Consider this a ‘getting to know me’ or refresh on posts you may have missed.
