Cali Friends

Jonesy and Sara were in town two weeks ago and it was nice seeing familiar faces. I'm actually not homesick, which totally surprises me since the last two times I was out of the country for en extended period of time (Europe and Mexico, both times about a month) I was terrible homesick at about three and a half weeks. But not yet.

Still, being reminded of SLO, college and friends was really, really cool. Sara was always craving ice cream and Jonesy and I weren't complaining--that stuff is pretty good here! We happily obliged. I'm a huge fan of lime and orange flavors which I find incredibly refreshing in this hot and muggy weather.

On a related note: they brought me corn tortillas! Those things are next-to-impossible to find here so being brought a big bag was awesome and enabled me to make and share some tasty veal tacos. Baby cow tacos are really the way to go...why allow them to grow up and get tough?! SL
