Today was THE day. Okay, no. There are many more days like this to come.
Something very important for the culture in Cordoba is for the women to run the house. I don't find this offensive when I think of Paul who became like the people to reach the people. It also helps that in the process I get to learn how to make delicious food! Today: empanadas!!
The final product was delicious, but lacking only one thing. Eva taught us how to make the insides of the empanadas, AND we learned how to "repulge" (reh-pool-gay). That's the term for the cute little folds on the edges of the treat. We did not, however, get to learn how to make the discos, or outer part. We had bought those pre-made. So we told Eva that the next time she visits her mom she will have to learn how so we can feel complete in our empanada-making skills.
It gets me excited for the next cooking lesson, that is for sure. Adios.
Great pic of you holding the empanada. It seems to have made your eyes even more blue. Maybe there was just a twinkle in them from getting to make and eat such good food. I look forward to tasting them when I get there!
