And to think I was taking Mexican food for granted the whole time we lived in the U.S. I never gave it any thought until I had to work to find it. And it is a good thing I have focused on making friends because the expat friends I have made keep on leaving and I have to make an effort to refill the pipeline. More on that coming in a future post (I think.) Thanks for reading!

Great fun, if only to see where the consul lives, beautiful house. I hope they still do those! http://www.joburgexpat.com/2011/03/us-consul-generals-cocktail-reception.html. Oh, and here my take on Mexican food in SA: http://www.joburgexpat.com/2011/11/we-need-mexicans-to-get-on-boats.html. BTW I love your description of your job in finding friends for the household. Same here. Except that I am often quite happy to sit alone in my house not going out making friends or meeting with the friends already made, which sometimes causes disagreement.Sinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09971554811306102478noreply@blogger.com
