I can't believe we are already on Day 6 of our time here in San Cristóbal. We are having a fabulous time with Isabel and Hector. She is a fantastic cook, as you can see in some of the photos in the slideshow. We come home from school each day at 2pm for "La Comida" con la familia. Recently three of their eight grandchildren have joined us, Ingrid, Ángel y Elias. We sit together, enjoying her meal and talking for over an hour-- the best part of our "clases de español".
Today, we were talking about different foods and chapulinas (grasshoppers) y hormigas (ants) came up and before I knew it, Ruth was taking her first taste of ant! I said I needed a couple more cervezas before I could do it. Go to the slideshow to see Ruth her devour her first hormiga!
Looks like you are having fun!
ReplyDeleteThat is very cool! That beats me eating shrimp heads and sucking out the juice tonight at Marlowes before the game tonight!
ReplyDeleteWell, I've tried twice to post - let's try again....
ReplyDeleteI love the vibrancy of color in the food! Yum.On another note I've never liked ants as pests...maybe I'd like them better as cuisine .....omnivores rule! Andrew Zimeran the bald-headed guy who eats anything that moves on the TRAVEL CHANNEL always says if it looks good eat it, so go for it; if it looks good to you.
