Greetings 6,551 El Sayulero Readers,

 

It appears our traditional Spring time Sayulita weather has returned with beautiful sunny days, cool (but not cold) evenings, and all our local and visiting surfers must be delighted with the arrival of great waves this morning.  It really is too bad these waves did not show up five days ago for the surf contest but El Sayulero congratulates Punta Sayulita, their staff, and all of the organizers for pulling off such a great event here in Sayulita.  Well done!

 

writing contestSayulita Writing Contest ($500 USD first prize):  Get your pencils sharpened up because the SayulitaLife.com and other local businesses are sponsoring the first ever "Why I Love Sayulita" writing contest.  In 500 words or less contestants can tell all of us what makes our village so special.  The contest is open to EVERYONE and and we hope to receive some fantastic entries.  Details to follow in next Friday's (March 25) El Sayulero. 

 

Newclassifieds Sayulita Classifieds:  We have moved our free classified ads to the Sayulita Community Forum.  Take a look and please feel free to utilize this free tool offered to the community. You can quickly/easily post pictures as well.

 

Copa Banana?:  I found this to be pretty cool. An "Off Broadway" show, Copa Banana takes place at Bebida Loca, a Copa Bananasmall bar in the tiny Mexican coastal village of Sayulita, frequented by American tourists. Bebida Loca is run by a retired American and his "indentured" help, a hapless surfer from the States. All is peaceful for the men until the arrival of two displaced cruise ship entertainers on a mission to get the establishment featured in a Celebrity Reality Show they hope to pitch for Oprah's OWN Network.   

 

Thanks for reading,  

 

Ian Hodge

=========================================

Saludos a los 6,551 lectores de El Sayulero,    

 

Parece que el clima de primavera ha vuelta a la normalidad con d�as soleados, noches frescos (no fr�as) y todos los surfos locales y los que nos visitan han de estar contentos con las olas que llegaron hoy en la ma�ana. Lastima que estas olas no llegaron hace unos 5 d�as para el torneo de surf pero El Sayulero quieres felicitar a Punta Sayulita, el personal y todos los organizadores por haber realizado un buen evento en Sayulita. Bien hecho.

 

Concurso de Escrito en Sayulita (premio de $500 USD): Preparen sus l�pices porque SayulitaLife.com y otros negocios locales est�n patrocinando el primer concurso de escrito "Porque Amo Sayulita". En 500 palabras o menos los concursantes pueden decirnos que es lo que hace nuestro pueblo tan especial. Todos pueden participar en el concurso y los detalles del concurso estar�n publicados en la pr�xima edici�n de El Sayulero.

 

Los Nuevos Anuncios Clasificados: Hemos movido los clasificados al foro comunitario de Sayulita. Chequenlos y favor de utilizar esta herramienta gratuita que se ofrece a la comunidad. Se pude agregar im�genes tambi�n.

 

Copa Banana?:  Ecuentro esto muy interesante. Una obra que se llama Copa Banana se trata sobre un bar en Sayulita, Mexico que se llama Bebida Loca donde van muchos americanos. Un americano maneja Bebida Loca con la ayuda de un surfista. Todo va bien hasta que dos animadores de un crucero llegan con la meta de tener un reality en el canal  de Oprah en el bar Bebida Loca.

 

Gracias por leer El Sayulero

GPS: Here Are The Results
But Why Do We Sometimes Make Mistakes? 
By Grupo Pro SayulitaGPS Fundraiser 2011
 
I was thinking this week about our organization and our successful Fiesta-Fundraiser (according to almost all attendees).  After a "Monday-morning" analysis by the committee, as well as receiving comments and suggestions from friends, I was wondering why everything didn't go 100% perfectly.  And then I realized-that what makes Grupo Pro Sayulita so special is the reason why we are prone to make some mistakes. More >

Pensaba esta semana acerca de nuestra organizaci�n y nuestro Fiesta-Recogedor DE FONDOS exitoso (seg�n casi todos los asistentes). Despu�s de un "EL LUNES POR LA MA�ANA" an�lisis por el comit�, as� como comentarios y sugerencias recipientes de amigos, me pregunto por qu� todo no fue 100% perfectamente. Y entonces me di cuenta de-que lo que hace Grupo Pro Sayulita as� que especial es la raz�n por qu� nosotros estamos pronos hacer algunos errores.   Mas >

It's a great time for spring cleaning. Clean out all of those unwanted or unused items that are collecting dust and bring them down to CVIS!  More >

  Family: Birthday Soup       
Birthday Soup

By Andrea Villarrubia 

 

  With so many mid-March birthdays upon us, I thought I'd share a favorite recipe for "Birthday Soup." Our version of Birthday Soup is so coined because Maximo and I love the story of Birthday Soup from LIttle Bear, by Elsa Holmelund Minarik (with illustrations by family favorite, Maurice Sendak)... and also because this soup is so yummy and sweet that it is almost as good as birthday cake.  More >

Con tantas celebraciones de cumplea�os en marzo para nosotros, quer�a compartir una receta favorita, "Sopa de Cumplea�os."  Nuestra versi�n de Sopa de Cumplea�os es as� acu�ada porque a M�ximo y yo nos encanta el cuento "Birthday Soup" del libro Little Bear, por Elsa Holmelund Minarik (con ilustraciones de Maurice Sendak, un favorito de nuestra familia) ... y tambi�n porque esta sopa es tan deliciosa y dulce que es casi tan buena como el pastel de cumplea�os.  Mas >

Doshas

By Narayani 

 

Ayurveda, the ancient Hindu science of health and medicine. [Sanskrit āyurvedaḥ : āyuḥ , life, health + vedaḥ , knowledge) individually focuses on achieving optimal health in body, mind and spirit based on who we are and what we're made of. Ayurveda says that just as no two people are alike, no two treatments for health are alike either and we are all made up of unique proportions of Vata, Pitta and Kapha, the three doshas.  More >

Ayurveda, la antigua ciencia hind� de la salud y la medicina. [S�nscrito āyurvedaḥ: Aj�, la vida, la salud + vedaḥ, el conocimiento) de forma individual se centra en el logro de una salud �ptima en el cuerpo, la mente y el esp�ritu sobre la base de lo que somos y lo que estamos hechos. Ayurveda dice que as� como no hay dos personas iguales, no hay dos tratamientos para la salud son iguales ya sea y todos estamos compuestos de proporciones �nicas de Vata, Pitta y Kapha, los tres doshas.  Mas >
