So, I can’t get enough at how life turns around by 360 degrees and shows you its best side. After a long, long year in Colorado, trying to find myself, lost in a world where either you got up and start running, or you’d be hit by a train, not literally, although it did hit hard, finding a place in sunny California where life is good, reminds me of the many blessings received.
Not only that, but today, while sitting down watching my mom cook mofongo for me, one of my favorite dishes in the world, I keep counting my blessings. I flew in to Champaign, Illinois, yesterday, to watch my brother receive his Masters degree, and spent some time with my family. Since I was going to this big event (it is a big event for all of us) I got my mom to fly with plantains so she would cook for me!!! BTW, my mom’s the best!!
Still trying to put into words how blessed I’m feeling right now...the smell of bacon, plantain, chicken and all the good stuff that will make my mofongo (just Google it!!!) taste so good, is making my mouth ‘water’, and my brain space out.
Though, I’m slightly coming back… my brother is clapping and dancing as he watches my mom cook and it is just too funny … it will be soooo good, sorry you all can’t have a taste of it…
Isn’t life just a delight? Buen provecho too me! Bon appétit Zilaida!!
