this morning i went to the licuado shop on york here in highland park.
i've been wanting to try this little shop for awhile. i decided to try something i knew how to translate. which was numero 4.
the lady behind the counter whipped my strawberries, bananas, and walnuts into a light milky froth. also she gave me a large, even though i ordered the medium. this happens to me a lot. but it is not something i complain about.
next time i'm going to have the escamocha. either that or the chamango.
i also took home some arroz con leche for safekeeping.
not for me! in case a guest dropped by later.
sister, when you come out we're going here! we can sit outside at the orange table with the plastic ivy plant. you can knit. i'll play words with friends on my ipad.
whadda ya say?
Such a delicious little place to explore. Knitting and words games in the sun sounds delightful. Donna

You're making me hungry plus I've had arroz con leche on my mind the last couple of weeks. That's it, I can almost taste your picture. I'm making some...

I am sitting here drinking my morning brew and frothing myself into a tizzy just looking at all those amazing liquid libations. YUM!!!!! Do you think your sister would mind if I ran over to her place in KS and hid in her carry on. I don't think she'd notice me. I can just think myself tiny. My wings are on the mend. I use them alot so they need some patching before I can use em again. They've been very good wings and I need a vacation from my life for a few days.;)

I think you'd better eat that arroz before it goes bad! And I also think you and sister are in for a treat!

Everything about this place looks yummy, I could even lick the walls. Wonder why numero 10 is "cheese cake" instead of "tarta de queso" or something similar. Hope you enjoyed another lovely sunny day in California today. How is your garden going? The jasmine is blooming right outside my bedroom and is so fragrant I am bringing in armloads to fill up all the empty jam jars I own. Now, if only I could grow gardenias, I would think I died and went to scent heaven. Are you working on your list, starting another on-line class? Jess wondering.

Oh wait for me! I'm coming as soon as I translate all those juices and figure out exactly which one I want. No guesswork for me. I can't wait until you see my new ORANGE knitting bag! It wants to come and visit too!
