Muy deliciosas


Friday: another yogurt-making day! Alisa is preparing for Saturday Market Day in San Marcos. So am I. It's always fun to check out the local market and see what the area artisans are selling.

But, alas, on Saturday, there was a much-needed, spectacular ice/rain storm which deposited marble-sized hail and left the area without power for about six hours. So, although the other artisans stayed home, Alisa delivered yogurt to most of her regular customers.









Sharing time with Alisa wouldn't be complete without some quality cooking (and eating) time. The local foods make tempting vitals and we have had wonderful meals including: home-cured olives, hummus with ginger, an asado barbeque, roasted veggie dip, etc.




And, homemade pasta made with freshly laid eggs.



























On Friday, Alisa learns the finer points on composting for dry toilets from Adrian.









During a hot day, a dip in the backyard pool is so refreshing




As we prepare to leave San Marcos for Cordoba, here are a few "before" photos for which Alisa will have to share the "after" photos for their in-progress work in the woods.
