I forgot to mention in the last post that as I was driving on an errand, I saw an iguana crawling on a tree. That evening I saw a moth the size of my fist with a one and a half foot wing span.
This morning a lizard ran into the house we are renting and now we can’t find it.
We bbq’d a chicken and guess what we made? Tacos. Lots and lots of tacos. Then I drove the car into Mérida to run an errand. Before driving back, I went to a restaurant named Chaya Maya. It’s a well know Yucatan cuisine restaurant. I didn’t know what to get, so I looked at the menu of entrees and said “todo por favor”.
I drove back home with the food after that.
When I got home Bonnie was making a casserole and the kids were watching a screen.
We ate the food from Chaya Maya and it was different. 😃 Very hearty, and grainy tortillas, the meat had a very rich flavor as if it was cooked in a cast iron grill. Probably won’t be craving this food ever.
On my way back to our house in Chelem, I saw a food stand on the highway. They were selling coconut custard meringue pies and I bought a whole one. It tasted great and the best part is the rest of the family hates meringue. So it’s a win win for me.
After dinner, some of the kids played in the ocean with their mom, while I stayed by the pool with the other kids. It was a beautiful sunset on the Gulf of Mexico this evening. *
