Muchacho Polaco

We had a spectacular carne asada last Friday at Yrem and Heidi’s home. Good food, good wine, good friends.

Later we played a version of the Newlywed Game which was hilarity.

We had an enjoyable and restful trip with Matt Dana in Kino. As is customary, the food, wine, and cigars were spectacular. We had fillets multiple night, with russet potatoes which is something we are unable to purchase in this country.

I believe this is the best time of year to take a visit to the beach. The temperature was in the mid 80s and 90s and the sea temperature was much cooler then the 90 degree temperatures that occur in the summer.

Saturday was a beautiful day until early evening when a very strange fog encroached upon us from the sea.

This is Scout’s happiest place on the planet. We’re not sure he has too many more visits given the amount of time he likely has left in life.

We arrived to Kino this afternoon with Matt and Dana. This is probably the best time of year to visit as it is not yet unbearably hot. The water is still a bit cool, but not too cold to get in.

Scout lost his ball 5 mins after arrival.

We got home from San Carlos yesterday evening and went immediately to Sergio and Nadia’s house for spectacular dinner of ribs, fries, and cole slaw. We don’t get enough opportunity to spend time with them, but hopefully that will change in the future.

It is starting to heat up, but it’s still nice in the evenings. Such a beautiful sunset.

I made two no-knead firey cheese breads today, one of which had a Mennonite cheese with chiltepin, and the other I used a cheese from Chiapas and added about 2 ounces of chiltepin. Both were spectacular, but the loaf where I added the chiltepin separately was much spicier and preferred by all. It was also the cheaper loaf because cheese with chiltepin is much more expensive to buy. This will be ny showcase bread.

We were invited over to Asael and Lupita’s house for dinner this evening. We brought Sequence. Good times.

Last Saturday we went over to Orlando and Anna’s house and had some fun making raviolis. It’s been awhile since we’ve done this and I think it’s in part because it’s a lot of work. I was hungry when we arrived, but it would take another 3 hours before we’d be able to sit down to eat.

Even so they turned out great and it was a fun thing to do. Perhaps in another year or two we can do it again.

We tried our first date from the date jar last night. Dinner in the reverse order. So we began with dessert and moved our way forward to dinner.
