Yesterday we went to the bigger grocery store Soriana and bought a cake for the evening and then stopped at a fish store on the way home. We got a kilo of fresh shrimp for 80 pesos (about $8.00 dollars a kilo or about $3.63 dollars a pound). They are called medium size here; but are quite large. The "large" ones were 95 pesos a kilo, (about $9.50 a kilo or about $4.31 a pound).
Last evening we had the landlords family up for cake and coca cola and we had a nice visit with them. They brought me a lovely arrangement of roses. It is so pretty and I love it.
Today we are just hanging out at home, as Roy has a big day planned with football (Americano) on TV. This evening we are going to go out for a shrimp dinner, hopefully the place will be open. We haven't been having much luck lately with finding places open. We have gone to our favorite torta place a couple of times and they have been closed. GRR

Hmmmmm. Did you have a birthday to celebrate? The flowers look beautiful, and cake - well, cake is always wonderful
Cheers!
Cakes and roses did not catch my interest. But shrimp! Every mention had my mouth watering.
Did I miss something? What was the occasion? Or just being good neighbors?
Hi all. Yes the roses were beautiful and the cake was yummy.
Actually the next day was my birthday. I just don't advertise that. lol
