Last night we had a Mexican fiesta at George's sister's (Suzy) house. It was the best meal I have had since being here. We had homemade tortillas, beans, ground beef, rice, grilled onions and peppers, sausage, tomatoes, cheese and guacamole. The avocados here are huge. From three avocados I made a giant bowl of guacamole.
We had a really nice time cooking and hanging out. It was Suzy, her husband Andrew (George and I were the witnesses at their wedding in January), George, me, Dave and Caro (George and Suzy's brother and sister), Sarah (an exchange student from Wisconsin staying with George's parents), and Pip and Beth, neighbors of Suzy's who are from England and the US, respectively. We laughed and enjoyed our feast. It reminded me of being at home.
Avocados the size of two fists! Yesterday I looked at the pathetic avos on sale at the store....small, green and 1.50 each! Your fiesta looks so fun and her house looks so modern! I am so glad you are being surrounded with so many great people!

How can California grow Kenyan avocados? It must be possible. Perhaps it is a ploy by the avocado growers who know their avocado addicted Californians will pay a lot for small avocados!
ReplyDeleteYes, her house is modern. More of a western style. She is married to a mzungu.
