Feliz Cumpleanos a Mi!


My new SIL friends know how to celebrate! I had a birthday lunch on Sunday afternoon, and a birthday dinner on Monday evening! They made me feel so special and welcome. I have to gush about the plate (above) from dinner: look at all the veggies! That's chicken on the left (honey chicken, to be exact) and there rest is all from the garden! Wow. There's also a corn appetizer on the small plate - In Peru, they call all corn "choclo" (not "maiz"), and most of the corn here is large, white, and sweet. It's delicious! What a great birthday gift from the Lord, to get to know new people, new food, and this new city.

Mmm...corn. Does it grow year-round there or is it like here and only good and fresh during the summer months? --robbie
