The lovely table...
Arroz con gandules...rice with green pigeon peas.
Tostones rellenos...fried plantains shaped into cups and stuffed with shrimp guisado (stewed).
Haggis! Enough said. Actually, I would like to try this as traditionally served with "tatties and nips." (M, is that how it is spelled?)Also served but not pictured, pernil (roast pork), buttermilk dressing, and pad thai. Yumm-o1
On a sad note, I would ask all my praying friends and readers to say some prayers for the poor people of Haiti. That country while already terribly poor has been struck by a major earthquake and the country is devastated. I dislike watching the news at times because it leaves me so sad and in tears. Puerto Rico is not very far away which is also what brings Haiti to mind. It could have just as easily been PR in ruins and my family in jeopardy. Ugh, I don't even want to think it. Anyway, everyone count your blessings!

yes that's i believe correct - it's best with white mashed potatos, just boiled with butter stirred in after mashing. And the "nips" pronounced 'neeps' aren't our regular turnips, but rutabega... mash up nummy like a potato.
