On Sunday I celebrated my 21 here in Mexico with fine fine company. After getting a bunch of stuff from home (thanks all) I was surprised with a bucket of ice cold water while serving in the comedor (I guess that is the tradition here) and then with a "cake" made of apples, carrots, and peanut butter. I have only been here for a month and my roommates know me too well...
In the evening the sisters invited us over for dinner, tequilla and sangria, and afterwards we had real cake and ice cream. In the photo is Erin (volunteer de Oregon), Hermana Ingracia, Hermana Rosealba, Monset (JVC de Mexico), Adolfo (JVC de Mexico) y Hermana Lorana.
Birthday Dinner: Tostados con frijoles y enslada. Toooo good.
Grandma, thank you so much for the cross word puzzles and articles. But above all thank you for the moldy carrots and peanut butter. I was seriously laughing for three minutes and my roommates had no idea what to think of it. haha
Here is the second edition of Una Parada En El Camino:
