I wrote - I really did!
Hello Everyone,
On Sunday night I happily sat on the bed with my laptop in hand and I wrote to all of you to recount the nice day I had meandering along the Schuykill River. I then managed to loose what I wrote. Sid reminded me that I should save while I am writing and I was so frustrated and just yelled back, "am I supposed to save after every sentence?" I was so annoyed to say the least!
Anyway, Sunday was a beautiful day and all the urban dwellers were out running, roller blading, biking along the river, etc.... It is definitely my favorite part of the city. Every Sunday, a group of very energetic roller skaters congregate in this square, blare really upbeat dance music and dance in synchrony. It is so neat, you could just watch them for hours. I was admiring them - as I always do when they come out. A lovely young woman starting talking to me, and it after a long and fun conversation with her, she revealed that her name was Sandra, and she was from Haiti. She had come to the US as a young girl and she talked lots about the wonderful cuisine she enjoys when she goes home every year. I even discovered that Haitians (and she tells me all Carribeans) eat "Bacala" You may remember the fish I described to you in the past. It looks like a piece of wood that you have to soak for days and then cook. It is super salty and amazing delicious. And here I thought only Italians ate fish that feels like a piece of wood when you buy it.
Once again the desserts are impressive. They look so delicious and I was really craving a piece of the chocolate torte when I saw it. How is Murray doing with his pastry creations? I guess we will soon be seeing photos of them
KC, that horse looks sweet. Maybe the next time we talk you will be talking about your horse. If you need encouragement in getting the horse, just talk to Nina. I am sure she will convince you that it is an essential.
As always I am thinking of you all. I have to rush back to my work, I have another situation that I have to deal with now. Or should I say another bullet to dodge.
Stay well everyone.
Love,
Sandra
