Day 210

The other day, we received eight zipped plastic “bags” of black garlic that I ordered from Amazon. We have never tried black garlic, but have heard about the health benefits thereof.

WOW! We were completely blown away by the tastes, and textures, of the de fe w de q no . It was nothing like we expected. It was dark, soft, muddy, vanilla in taste, hard to describe, actually. It was wonderful!!!

And, yesterday, we got the box of goodies, from my sister in law, that she received from Amazon, in our name. It was like Christmas. We were both digging through the box, looking for the things we each ordered. I got sixteen packs of seeds for my indoor herb garden; Ivan got his Fannie May mint chocolates, and, his favorites, Truffles.

Another fun fact- I ordered our bicycles from Amazon.com.mx the other day. Wow. The savings account took a bit of a hit with that. They are from Schwinn, the tires are only twenty inches tall, and it is foldable, and, about twenty four pounds in weight. The fold-ability will allow us to take them up to the condo, for safety. If you look them up on line, they are called the Loop. In case you do not want to look it up, here are a few photos.

I cannot wait to start riding the bikes. We have a newly remodeled bike, and walking path less than a kilometer from the condo that is absolutely breathtaking. New palm trees, new flowering plants, on both sides of the path with the Rio Churubusco (river) running through it. (I could not help myself). I have no idea how long it is, or the altitude of the terrain but will find out in a few short weeks.

The bike should be here in two to four weeks, so, while we wait, stay happy, stay healthy, stay safe. Wash your hands, cover your mouth, and, protect your loved ones.
