The Guatemalan Singles Club is now in session. Meetings will be Tuesday evenings, dinner hour. Plan to provide food on occasion. Bring good conversation. Expect to drink rich coffee.
This evening I had the pleasure of having Johana, my good friend and neighbor, and Cristobal, the neighborhood builder, over to my house for dinner. I made homemade pizza, which thankfully turned out just like it does back in the states. Yummy! We had a great time talking and laughing and telling stories--anything from the neighborhood robbers to people we had met to the war in Guatemala back in the '80s to childhood memories. Before we knew it, we had chatted for nearly three hours!
Apparently this will be a regular thing. At least I hope so. Next stop: McDonald's in Antigua. (Before you think woop-de-do, realize that fast food here is equivalent to the Cheesecake Factory. The Mickey D's in Antigua has a courtyard with a fountain, and amazing view of the volcano, and free Internet.)

Doing my best! Maybe we should have a cultural awareness Tuesday night dinner and Skype sometime. :)
