Hey fellow adventurers! For this post, I made breakfast, dinner, a snack and a dessert. However, I wanted to make food that I haven’t had before. Living in San Diego though, Mexican food is basically a part of my weekly diet. Like in the past, I’ll talk about proper etiquette and then share what food I made.
When dining at someone’s house, wait for the host or hostess to seat you. The most honored position is at the head of the table, with the most important guest seated immediately to the right of the host. Men sit to the right of the hostess and women sit to the right of the host. The meal doesn’t start until the host says “Buen provecho!” (the Spanish equivalent of “Bon appetite!”). When dining with utensils, never switch hands. The fork remains in your left hand, and the knife remains in your right hand. When not holding utensils, your hands are expected to be visible above the table: rather than placing your hands on your lap, rest your wrists on top of the table (never your elbows). When passing food around the table, always pass food to the left. When eating salad, don’t cut it, fold it with your knife and fork into a bundle that can be picked up with your fork. If you’re dining at a restaurant, the one who invites is typically the one that pays the bill. It’s also customary to leave a 10% tip for the waiter or waitress. Finally, it’s rude to leave the table before everyone has finished eating.
All these dishes I ate with my husband and my parents at my parents’ house. For breakfast, I made chilaquiles, a traditional Mexican dish that has strips of fried corn tortillas simmered in salsa as the base, and served with cheese, eggs, and/or beans. We made ours with only cheese and eggs but next time I want to add beans too. Surprisingly, the taste of the tortillas overpowered everything else. Although that’s not a bad thing, next time I make these, I plan on adding more flavor. Also, we decided to tweak the recipe to make it a bit more healthy by baking the tortillas rather than frying them in oil. We want to try to stay as true to the recipe as possible but all of us are trying to watch our weight. Also, since I’m so bad with spice, I put sour cream on mine rather than the hot salsa like the rest of my family.
A popular, quick and easy to make snack in Mexico is fresas con crema, made with cream and strawberries. It’s very creamy and delicious! I love strawberries and I love milk so this snack/dessert was right up my alley! If you love strawberries, I highly recommend trying this! It only takes a few minutes to make.
We started dinner with an appetizer: tortilla chips, spicy carrots and beer, just like they do at Mexican restaurants. We did this while waiting for the food to cook. It was a good way to start the meal!
For dinner, I made ceviche tostadas, pozole soup and aqua fresca. The ceviche I bought from a local farmer’s market rather than trying to make it myself though. I followed the recipe for the sauce to put over the ceviche and how to crisp up the tortillas. Once again, we ended up putting them in the oven rather than frying them in oil. Once again, I was worried about spice so I put sour cream on mine rather than the baja sauce. They were amazing! Definitely would have again! Though next time, I would put the tortillas in for longer cause they weren’t as crispy as I wanted. The pozole soup was amazing too! We didn’t have veggie stock so I used potato soup instead. It’s a bit spicy but if you’re bad with spice like me, you can always pair it with a starch like rice, pasta or potatoes to spread out the spice. And to drink, we had mango lime aqua fresca. I don’t think I would make it too often but it was pretty good. It tasted like watered down juice.
Finally for dessert, we had très leches, a sponge cake soaked in three kinds of milk: evaporated milk, condensed milk, and heavy cream. The recipe we used had us make too much milk but it was phenomenal! My husband took the leftovers to work and it was a big hit there too! I recommend this cake for special occasions, or even just cause! Just try it!
My parents brought out dessert tequila to go with the très leches cake. It’s delicious! I’ll definitely buy this sometime, and I recommend it to anyone who loves tequila.

Howdy, I do think your site could possibly be having browser compatibility problems.
Whenever I take a look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening in I.E., it has some overlapping
issues. I merely wanted to give you a quick heads up! Aside from that, excellent website!
Hello very nice site!! Man .. Beautiful .. Wonderful .. I’ll
bookmark your site and take the feeds also? I am glad to seek out a
lot of helpful info here in the put up, we’d like develop
more techniques on this regard, thank you for sharing.
. . . . .
I know this website offers quality based articles or reviews and other stuff, is there any other website which presents such data in quality?
You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something that I think I
would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad
for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get
the hang of it!
Hey there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using?
I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m
having a tough time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs
and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress
on a variety of websites for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform.
I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my
wordpress posts into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Have you ever considered creating an ebook or guest authoring on other
websites? I have a blog based upon on the same ideas you discuss and would really like
to have you share some stories/information. I know my readers would
value your work. If you are even remotely interested, feel
free to shoot me an email.

Systematische Navigation, eine App und tausend gute Amazon Bewertungen. Tesvor arbeitet aktuell daran ihr Sortiment
auszubauen. Leider hat der X500 immer wieder Schwächen in unserem Roboter Staubsauger Test gezeigt.
Boris und ich sind mit null Erwartungen an den 150 Euro billigen Robo gegangen. Der Medion MD18500 ist oft auch als Aldi Saugroboter bekannt.
Lustigerweise war das, war wir gesehen haben, sogar recht ordentlich.
Unglaublich einen Raum am Stück sollten Sie dem Medion Saugroboter
zwar nicht zutrauen. Der Robovac 11s von Eufy geht gerade einfach
nur durch die Decke. Aber hey, zeigen Sie mir ein Modell für 150
Euro, das besser ist. Wir waren wirklich absolut gehyped auf den Roboter und haben sogar extra aufs Upgrade –
den Eufy Robovac 11s Max – gewartet. Wir konnten den Hype nie im Leben verstehen. Und was soll ich sagen? Der Roboter fährt im Chaos Modus, besitzt keine App und reinigt ok.
What’s up friends, its wonderful post about cultureand completely defined, keep it up all the time.
So, dass SEO Marketing sehr nachhaltig ist und sich gut beinahe Unternehmensgröße und Strategie
anpassen lässt, ist diese Disziplin insbesondere für
junge Unternehmen interessant, die sich im Markt etablieren möchten. Aber auch Unternehmen, die stets auf Neukunden angewiesen sind, sollten SEO Marketing betreiben. SEO Marketing ist im
Zuge des Online Marketing eine relevante Größe mehr Umsatz zu erzeugen. SEO Marketing ist für alle Unternehmen hilfreich,
deren Kern-Zielgruppe im Zuge der Customer Journey für die Informations- oder Kaufphase
Suchmaschinen nutzen. Für wen ist SEO Marketing
sinnvoll? Somit ist SEO Marketing sicherlich für alle E-Commerce Anbieter relevant, da langfristig Traffic, der über SEO Marketing zustande kommt, günstiger ist als
Traffic, der über Suchmaschinenwerbung (SEA) Maßnahmen generiert wird.
Mithilfe von SEO Marketing und einer spezifischen Fachexpertise können so Interessenten aufmerksam gemacht werden. SEO Marketing ist
auch für Freiberufler oder Fachspezialisten interessant, die sich positionieren und
ein Themenfeld sauber besetzen müssen. Auch im B2B Marketing spielt SEO eine große Rolle,
da auch im Businessumfeld Suchmaschinen intensiv genutzt werden, um sich über Lösungen zu
informieren, Anbieter zu identifizieren und Anfragen auszulösen.
Hello, I would like to subscribe for this weblog to get hottest updates,
thus where can i do it please assist.
In unserem Fall mit einem überschaubaren 3-Zimmer Erdgeschoss waren das über
2,5 Stunden in zwei Fahrten. Flur übersehen, obwohl die Basis direkt neben der Flur-Tür stand.
Der Tank des Roboters ist kinderleicht zu entnehmen und
aus zu kippen. Allerdings ist die Box nicht auslaufsicher.
Er befindet sich unterm Deckel des Roboters zentral. Die größten Nachteile sind
in unseren Augen die Lautstärke und die Notwendigkeit von Licht.
Nächtliches Staubsaugen ist ausgeschlossen, außer wenn
die Räume sind beleuchtet. Wer den Roboter ins Obergeschoß
trägt, dem kann herausrieselnder Sand begegnen. Die Lautstärke hat eine ratternde Charakteristik, ähnlich dem Neato D701.
Allerdings rumpelt es beim Fahren ehrlich gesagt nicht stark wie beim Neato, das »Fahrwerk« des iRobot scheint besser abgefedert.
Für deutlich weniger gibt es auch gute Absaugstation-Geräte von welcher
Konkurrenz: Deebot Ozmo T8 AIVI, unsere Empfehlung bei den Wischrobotern (Kombigerät Saugen und Wischen).
Absaug-Basis für deutlich weniger allein ist. Der Dreame L10 Pro (Sub Brand von Xiaomi) kommt mit einem großen Staubtank von 570 Millilitern und einem einfachen Wischkonzept daher:
Der Staubtank sitzt im Saugroboter, die Wischplatte mit Wischtank (300 ml) wird auf bestellung einfach untergeschoben.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of
any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and
was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
Please let me know if you run into anything.
I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
