Las Comadres Kitchen / Cocinando con Las Comadres is an ongoing series of Comadres in the kitchen.
Las Comadres Kitchen Season 2 launched this September with new hostess Cindy Landez Velazquez.
Cindy will be interviewing Comadres about their recipes from our COOKING WITH LAS COMADRES cookbook.
Never be limited by other people’s limited imaginations. — Mae Jemison
Their facilitator for the past 11 years has been Viviana “Vivi” Aureille, but the group is 16 years old. They get together once a month, usually on Saturdays.
Their Comadrazos are exclusively in Spanish, and they’ve brought people together to form smaller groups for all sorts of fun activities. From traveling together, catching a movie, discovering new restaurants, and celebrating weddings to hiking and paddleboarding—there’s always something exciting happening!
The Tennessee Comadres were visible at this year’s Worldwide Comadrazo & 25th Anniversary Celebration in Austin, Texas. Their group leader Vivi was a finalist for 2025 Nora Award – Comadre of the Year. She didn’t win but she’s always a winner to her group.
Success doesn’t happen overnight. Stay consistent, keep learning, and never stop creating. — Diego Luna
