Mexican Cooking Lesson:
On Friday, Maria, a friend of our family, took us shopping for supplies to
create a Mexican meal the next day. Maria showed us how to make red
rice, refried beans, seasoned beef, and chicken. We also made
guacamole, red and green salsa and a beautiful fruit plate.

On September 14 (Mother's actual birthday), Joel, Terry and I took her to
the beach for the day. We stopped by the beach house. The big
pine trees in front had been removed and this was the first time we got to
see it.
