Neil, you thought 'bonita' was food? Hey, I had 2 years of Spanish in High School, then 1 year of French in college; and don't know much of either one now because I don't use them much... well, living down here, I Do know some Tex-Mex, which is what some people around here speak. On Friday, I was trying to tell this Spanish woman at a friend's house that we came to pick up a bicycle, and it took 3 of us gringos (anglos) to explain it to her in broken Spanish/English, and Lots of gestures, (like a kid pretending to ride a bike!)--- frustrating then, but funny now that I think of it!
You would think I would know Spanish real well by now, considering they now put Both languages on many cereal boxes and other food items down here; I think it's ridiculous myself---but I won't get off on that tangent tonight, Ha!
