Yay for Tuesday!

I thought this was interesting:

I was informed by my Cuban insect sprayer that you can't get "real" Cuban food in Tampa, and that the Tampian Cuban sandwich is "wrong" because it often has salami in it.  Apparently, a hundred years ago, the Cuban and Italian immigrants who lived in Tampa lived near to each other, and some Italian meat slipped into Cuban food.

Meh.  I'll put it out there that my (half-Cuban) H hates the Columbia.  He sticks to home cooking or holes in the wall for his Cuban food fix.  I don't know if that's because he doesn't like the fancied up versions of Cuban food or what.

Mica learned something new today!

When I eat there, I eat the salad, cubans and platanos. So I don't really know much about the other food. But I love those three things.

Where I work now, I get authentic Mexican food. It is completely different than even the smaller family type places I have previously been to. I love it when the secretary in the office makes fresh salsa with her stone grinder.

Does he like La Teresita, Mica?

I don't think I've ever had a Cuban with salami in it.

I think that i do WANT to try a Cuban with salami...

Clearly, authenticity can bite my ass.

We haven't gone out for Cuban food for a while.  With a bunch of family celebrations lately, we've had the home cooking versions that H's family makes, much better (and no salami).  But I intend to recommend La Teresita the next time we want Cuban food and want to eat out.

I envy you a little, Eagles.  I'm bored out of my mind.

You can do it Eagles! Petal- a lot of people despise subbing, especially here in my districts. The behavior is aweful, but you get to fine tune your patience! I really like the younger grades and special Ed. I don't know what I would get certified in yet though. I have to see what I already have te most credits towards.
