ii Pejiballe !!

It's a palm fruit!

The white part is mayonnaise! This is a snack prepared by María José (she’s related to Julie and Marisa’s host family), it’s a gourd-like food she peeled and sliced and is evidently served with mayonnaise. The flavor and texture of the gourd reminded me of butternut squash- it was quite delicious actually! It’s quite a combination, whoever would have thought?



María José is helping us with our tarea….mostly Julie with her grammer. She’s got to be the most patient twelve year old…. we’re having an interesting conversation; she finishes most of our sentences for us. Thank the good Lord that laughter is a universal language.



Chao,

Lluvia
