My cousin was thrilled with the weather this week, while I found it cool during the overcast days and downright chilly in the evening. It’s amazing how quickly one adapts to a new climate!<\/p>\n
While waiting for my hot dogs tonight, I chatted with one of the cooks. She complained about tonight’s cold weather and I told her that, considering there’s snow back home, I can’t complain! She says the coldest place she’s been is Lake Tahoe in winter and tonight was almost as bad! She was exaggerating. \ud83d\ude42 I told her that I saw some pictures of this week’s snowfall in Los Angeles, which shocked her, and concluded that the world has gone crazy, which she found really funny.<\/p>\n
(I didn’t know how to say complain, so I said ‘cannot say something bad about the weather.’ So my word of the day is quejarse!)<\/p>\n
The lady who dresses my hot dogs was once again surprised by how little I want on them, never mind the odd, to her, combination. Next week, I will tell her about what are normal hot dog toppings where I’m from. I didn’t do it tonight because I didn’t know how to say sauerkraut (just like in French, but spelled differently, chucrut!) or sweet pickle relish (still working on that one, will probably just say minced sweet marinated cucumbers).<\/p>\n
Speaking of relish, my cousin brought me some from Quebec. My hot dogs tonight were pretty dang perfect! I don’t miss the sauerkraut at all; the tomatoes give the acidity I need.<\/p>\n
Some of the hot dogs are wrapped in bacon before grilling. This week, I graduated to the bacon wrapped ones. Woohoo! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Tomorrow is chicken. I missed last week. I ran into the chicken lady at Ley today and she actually commented on the fact!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
