Lately the most popular question asked of us is whether we were able to have a Thanksgiving feast...were we? Pff, of course! We somehow ended up cooking for the entire Escobar family, 11 people. Everything was delicious and since Ecuadorians can eat, there were barely any leftovers, a first for us.
So after countless hours spent in the kitchen of the Escobar home, the family gathered at two tables and went to town on P´s delicious squash soup recipe, a 16 lb. turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, stuffing and topped it off with vanilla ice cream & apple crisp. We´re absolutely sure everything turned out great by the amount of times we heard the phrase "¡Que rico!"
M is just about at 100% with her recuperation and although we´re sad for a second round of goodbyes, we´re ready to continue this journey. We´re off to Lima, Peru on Thursday!
