Celebrate the Day.

Today there was a banner at the Pedagogica, announcing that it was International Women´s Day. Sweet.

We have been having dinner at Kurt & JoAnn´s every Wednesday, which is just a breath of fresh air for me. They cook great vegetarian food (plato típico Americano) and we discuss ¨The Irresistible Revolution¨ (a book I´m pretty fond of).

It´s the long weekend now and I´m going to Amapala (a little island on the south coast) with a couple other muchachas. First though, I am going to introduce my host family to the wonder that is homemade Betty Crocker chocolate chip cookies. They don´t sell chocolate chips here, so I am going to cut up some chocolate soccer ball candy.

For the next few weeks, we will all be in Cofradia, which is where a dear friend Sarah Shewby is living and teaching. A lot to look forward to!
