Oh so very yummy
I have had lots of interesting trips to the grocery store. It takes me forever to go food shopping, first because I have no idea where anything is and second because I have to read everything very carefully. I have made some dumb mistakes because I have not spent time reading, for instance buying olives stuffed with anchovies (when it was printed in english)! And for some reason I got it in my head to make rice krispies treats, and I was motivated in this because some of Justin's colleagues have never even heard of such yummy goodness.
First bit of difficulty was finding marshmallows. I didn't see them anywhere. And Justin and I didn't know the word for it in spanish, and how do you go about explaining what they are to someone (white, soft, sweet, gooey) without making more confusion. Then a few weeks later, they just appeared in a store that I have looked in multiple times. Only odd thing about them was that they were pink, but thats alright isn't it?
Earlier this week I made a batch of rice krispies treats. This is where I run into the second challenge- I didn't have any wax paper, and they were WAY too sticky, Matt had to help me because everytime you touched something you would only make things more sticky... and I think I could have added more rice krispies... but they turned out not so bad, and made for a tasty treat.






Man, we should have found those Marshmallows sooner! That looks tasty. :-)
How is the rest of the trip going? I know you'd rather be out having fun then writing stuff for the blog, but I expect a full report once Matt takes off! (I might even have put my stuff together by then ...)
Hope you guys are having a great time!
