Kim being.......herself.

This is Laura, Kim's roommate, shown here tag teaming the lasagna with Kimela. She's super southern/sweet and in the same program as Kim, she facilitates English clubs at the University of Guadalajara.

Doesn't Kim make a beautiful Betty Crocker? She made us scones from scratch. Scones, people! Oh, and for those of you doubting my own domesticity, take a gander at the flowers ever so cheerily arranged.


This is a fruit I'd never seen before, when I asked the merchant what it was he grabbed a knife, sliced it open, and handed it to me. I didn't know what to do with it, so I tugged at the skin and it slid off in a single slimy chunk. It was love at first bite. Mock me if you must, but I've been craving cactus nonstop for the past two days. I've single handedly consumed half a kilo.

FYI, I'm eating corn flavored popcorn as I type. I admit, I was skeptical at first. Seriously, how can one increase the corniness of corn? Tasting is believing, it's like fluffy corn on the cob....and it's getting my keyboard gross and greasy.
