Head Cheese and Ice Cream

I scared myself yesterday when I went to the little market down the street and voluntarily bought a chunk of head cheese. Some of these foods are growing on me...ha ha.

Then, today, I was at the supermarket and happened to pass through the ice cream aisle. The ice cream here is unique, some unique flavors, some unique combinations and colors, so every once in a while I will buy one to try, because it is usually pretty darn good.

I came home with a ice cream pie sort of something. I chose it because it sounded good, but also because it came with a free slicer/spatula. Tania has been joking around that she was on a good diet until the gringa came to live with her. So,when I came home today with this ice cream, I told her I bought this great spatula and the ice cream just happened to come with it. That I thought we could use a spatula and, well, if you buy the spatula you need take the ice cream too! She laughed.

I went to put it in the freezer and I seriously thought we were going to have to eat it all in the moment...holy cow! No pun intended but I think we had a whole cow in the freezer! Where would I put the ice cream?? I was able to cram it in there barely. 18 September is coming up fast, so i am sure the supermarkets are advertising some good deals on meat. 18 September is Independence Day. Cueca Mania and lots of food! Uff da!

buenas....
