nepal meet mexico, mexico meet nepal

  I don't think it's any secret on this blog that I practically adore mexican food so much that you may as well consider me married to it. 

i.love.tacos.
what can I say? 
the best tacos in the world are my moms, 
and coming in at a close second are tacos from Bear Flag Fish Taco in newport beach.

being as tacos are like the one meal i've mastered at making over here in Nepal,
I thought it would be fun to share my love affair with the girls in the home. 
Lately they've all been on a kick of wanting to learn Spanish. 
there are no words to describe the hilarity of what ensues when these spunky girls start running around the house yelling out spanish words (except not spanish words)
let's just say that "gracias" is a rreeeallllyyy hard work for nepali's to say. 
(or americans... side-eye Grandma Cook) 

so last week Kev and I went on our usual hours long grocery shopping expedition and ended up with all the ingredients to make some bomb tacos and quesadillas (try teaching THAT word to nepali's!). Michelle and I fired up our little gas oven and got the meat and tortillas going strong...
ohhh our house smelled so yum! 

this was the first time we'd ever had the girls over to our home. That in itself was a treat. I have a bunch of pictures up from our life in California, and it was a blast sharing them with the girls. 

then, we taught them the art of making a taco. 
oh yes, there is an art. 
and to our delight, the girls loved them! 
so much that asked for more! 

I was so over the moon about the fact that simultaneously I had mexican food and these precious girls in my house at the same time. 
secretly i wanted to round up a bunch of fire crackers and light them while banging a pinata. 

however, I settled for a rousing card game of jungle speed. 

What's your favorite food? any fun stories of times you've been able to share that meal with a friend or family member? 

have a great weekend! 
love Katie
