Besides that, I made another realization. I'm going to end up gaining weight here. Blanca (my host mother) is trying to fatten me up, that I'm sure of. Every meal she says to me "Come mas!" (or eat more). Sometimes I feel obligated to eat just a little more. But most of the time the food is simply too good to pass up. I have no idea what she did to the meat last night, but I was day-dreaming about it all day today! She cooked this thin steak with garlic and olive oil (I think). It was so tender it just fell apart. With it she had white rice and home-made soup.
Also, mom, I'm becoming spoiled here! You know how you thought I'd be helping with things around the house like I do at home? You know, putting the dishes away and stuff? Well, you were wrong.... Last week she told me do stop washing my dishes when I was done with them... she'd take care of it. And she serves us food on trays (she even brings mine to the table at lunch). If I don't come home (doubtful, but still), it's because I'm too fat and lazy to get on the airplane, hahaha!
XOXO,

Hey fatty...the woman probably never saw anybody as tiny as you at the age of 21....hahaha....Grams wants to know how big Blanca is? If we have to Grams and I will bring your food to you too...just come back home when the time comes! Back to this Paris thing...Grams and I are each giving Dad some money on thursday so make your plans NOW! Grams said you must get ready and go! All she wants in return is for you to take her to Hornings and Dutch-Way again! She wants me to tell you this EVERY night....HORNING'S, HORNING'S, HORNING'S is all I hear about..."when she comes home we are going" she says. When I read the part to Gram's about how you were day dreaming and how good your steak was, she said my goodness it must have been good...we would really like you to figure this one out because we want to try it! Blanca has got to let you learn some of these recipes while you are there. I will email you some more information about the money. Love you honey...even if you do get fat! Momma
ReplyDeleteHa! I would love to see you gain a couple pounds. I dont think it could ever happen. Especially with all you're doing over there. Just wanted to say hi and even though we haven't talked much lately "Te extraño mucho y Te quiero más". I think that's right.
ReplyDeleteHope to see you when you get home and I read this just about every night before I head to bed. It's like where back in Columbia :D
Oh and hell if you get me something in Paris I'll give you money to go.
