More shopping on Saturday

On Saturday, we headed out to Sam's Club and Bodega Aurrera (aka Walmart) for some more shopping. 

Carl and I didn't have anything we particularly wanted to purchase, so we enjoyed just walking the aisles... and making up meanings for the words we didn't know... This was some kind of chocolate candy in a sequined packaging...

Our reading of the warnings told us that it has excess calories, excess sugar (azucares), and excess grace on Saturdays (Wayne, our resident translator, told us that the first two were pretty much correct, but the last one was regarding the saturated fat content).

The "Special Selection" of Hershey's Kisses also had excess calories, sugar, and grace on Saturdays.

We bought some potatoes to make baked potatoes with brisket on Sunday, and onions to use to make Cream of Potato soup one day next week when it is predicted to be chilly.

Carl made smoked cream cheese for appetizer, and we made split pea soup that we all shared. We had ham and ham bones that we need to use before returning to the US because, even though they were acquired in the US, it is likely we would not be allowed to bring them back across as pork acquired in Mexico cannot be taken into the US, and our pork was not in store-bought hermetically sealed packaging -- so we decided to go ahead and make split pea soup with it and enjoy it here.

After eating, we all walked over to the beach to enjoy the sunset...

It wasn't quite as dramatic as on other nights, but it was still nice.
