¡Ya me voy!

Things have been slow at UNO all week. Students have been dragging and the office has been quiet. In fact, no one came for my last class of the day at all! I am just watching the clock tick by at this point. I have an hour and a half left of my last day of work before Spring Break officially begins. Admittedly, I´m feeling pretty restless and unfocused...Soooo, I thought I would take a few minutes to round out my blog posts to an even 50 before I come home tomorrow!
I´ve still got some packing to do this evening, but luckily for me, my empty fridge won´t keep me from eating tonight. The Guelaguetza people have come from Oaxaca to sell food, clothing, and various regional products. (They came in the fall as well, but because I was still new in town, I couldn´t take advantage of the festivities.) Tonight I´m looking forward to stopping by the festival in the park for some tlayuda for dinner. Tlayuda is like a big quesadilla, but the tortilla is crispier and the cheese is quesillo, which is traditional Oaxacan stringy cheese. The other night, I ate some mole oaxaqueño which was delicious, and they have amazing hot chocolate as well. I´m continually impressed by the fact that Mexican gastronomy is so multifaceted and that there are so many regional and cultural variations on the traditional cuisine.
Valladolid has been blessed with absolutely beautiful weather the past few days, but I noticed that the forecast for Bethlehem looks very promising for the coming week: low to mid-70s and sunny! I´m looking forward to my time in PA and being able to celebrate my Dad´s birthday (just a couple days late).
¡Saludos a todos! ¡Ya me voy!
