"Look! Grilled-flavor mayonnaise!" "Let's get out of here!"

Life is settling a bit. Everything still seems very new, but I am making sense of it. We've been working at the office, so now we ride buses and figure out transporting ourselves around Oaxaca. I have been to yoga a couple of times, and doing the ride/walk by myself is helping me feel like I have a better handle on where things are in town (I still need the little map that I carry in my bag). Then after work and yoga I come home and make dinner, usually Tony helps and then we all eat together. Tonight's creation was hibiscus flower enchiladas with a chipotle cream sauce and rice and black beans. I am trudging through the days a little, and looking tremendously forward to spending Christmas with my parents.

It's soon now.

This reminds me of when I first moved to NYC. Crazy how you can feel so lonely in a city of millions. Don't worry, soon you won't need your map and you'll be the one giving directions.

If I'm rich when you move back here, can I just hire you to be my personal chef?
