Happy Day
Well yesterday was my 11th anniversary of living in Mexico. WOW.And you know what?
I forgot to celebrate.!.!.!
But maybe that's an OK thing, cause I was just too busy doing other stuff. Let me tell you about it......
My really great Mexican friend Jorge came out to the castle with his son Lester (what the heck kind of Mexican name is Lester anyway?) to work on a project for school. Well that's totally cool with me, so out to my wood shop we go.
Well Lester has his plan and his material that they bought in town and Jorge always has 3 ideas to make it better, that NEVER work out as re-planned. And I just can't keep my mouth shut, so I put in my 2 cent's worth along the way.
Upshot of it all;
Lester's the happiest teen you could imagine.
Jorge kept all of his fingers.
I kept my patience.
The project got made with 12 copies for classmates.
We filmed it all.
I wasn't lonely for 4 or 5 hours.
Lester says he's so lucky to have his crazy Canadian engineer/carpenter uncle.
And my poor old long suffering dog is mad at me because we ate dinner at 9 at night. Tough I say, school comes first.

P.S Why are the banana trees in the pic of your castle not thriving?
But actually, that photo was taken in the dry season as you can see, it's much greener now and fruit is popping out all over the place.
Is yours tasty? Errrrr.....I mean, what breed is your banana...
I'd normally get my supply from the local market. I try to avoid buying bananas from the mall coz they are really tasteless
The only real big banana around here is ME...

Good times go fast
Bad times drag.
I must be having fun
Just get a little lonely now and then.
Nicer to cook for 2
Easier to clean up with 2
But maybe then time would move even faster
That would be a disaster
Pisang Emas ( gold ) or in English 'Lady Finger Banana'
Pisang Embun ( dew )
Pisang Tanduk ( horn ) Use unripened banana in cooking and they also make lovely banana chips.
My all-time favourite pisang goreng- Fried banana or banana fritters
I'm sorry to have turned this into a banana blog...
I'm kinda a banana guy.
After all, I've got like 18 or 20 trees growing out here.
So why not?
AND
I like bananas sliced on ice cream
or
I like bananas sliced on rice pudding
or
I like bananas sliced with chocolate sauce and whipped cream
If you made all of that, I'm sure you are the perfect wife...nice
Please read my profile
Horrible cook huh?
Lol love your profile...you didn't fancy up your profile but I find it entertaining...gave me a huge smile.
But I really am a lousy cook
Surprised that my kids survived this long!
