LL is correct. The closest we have to "estren~ar" in English is borrowed from French. Debut has been bastardized in English. Estrenar is one of those Spanish words we too wish translated (into English)!
PS: We were not estren~ido when we wrote this.

I love "estrenar"!! What kind of camera is it?? Your dog is adorable!

I have so thought that same thing. I love the word estrenar! (Tener ganas de is another phrase that I feel doesn't translate quite perfectly, and I prefer the Spanish. :-))

I love that verb estrenar but I'm always a little afraid to use it because I don't think I understand the construction well. So... why didn't you use an article for camara? Estoy estrenando la camera Does that sound wrong?

Congrats on the new camera. Your husband did a great job on that car. The only thing I have estrenar lately is a new pot, does that even count?

Now for the important question. What type of camera? Care to share the specifications?

I believe the Spanish/English dictionary defines estrenar as "to debut."

You've got one talented hubby there. Beautiful work on the upholstery.

Yeah! You're back in action and it didn't take too long. Nice pics.

I love your furballs, they're so cute! And congrats on the new camera...it must be a relief (I know it would be for me). Your hubs did an awesome job, that looks amazing! I can't come up with anything I've "estrenar"-ed (ha ha) lately, though...

Estrene un vestido and it felt great. I don't fit into my pre-pregnancy clothes and I've been waiting to buy things until I do and then I told myself it was ridiculous and that I deserve to wear cute clothes now.

Love the pictures and Mexican coke. It's big in SF. You can find it sold in all kinds of places.

What kind of camera did your wonderful hubby get you?

WOW. First of all - thanks for teaching me a new spanish word! Second - great photos and wow - what a great job your husband did! That always amazes me how people can take some thing so messed up, and know how to put it back together in perfect condition!

Is it sad that after almost hurting my brain I can...

Is it sad that after almost hurting my brain I can't think of anything that I have estrenar recently. Sounds like I need to go shopping!
Thanks for sharing.
