Sunday With the Fam

Ulises Cooking Breakfast
After spending most of yesterday with Ulises's family, we spent all of today with them.  Well, I guess I spent most of the day because I excused myself to go to church, but other than that, it was all day.
In the morning, Mari worked on a skirt for me.  We bought material yesterday to make me a skirt.  Also material to make Ulises a shirt.
After church, my skirt was ready.  I tried it on and showed it off.  It is really comfortable.
Ulises's sister, Mari, made dinner, entomatadas and beans.  I had never had entomatadas before.  Basically it is a corn tortilla covered in a tomato-based sauce and topped with cheese.  We had nothing inside because I didn't have anything to put in them, but Mari says she likes them with chicken.  They were good, though.  While dinner was being made, I played mancala with Ulises's niece.  Then for dessert we had cheesecake!
I guess Mari had wanted only half a piece of cheesecake, and her daughter, who was serving the cheesecake, took that to mean that her father would have the other half.  We all had quite a laugh over it because he was left with a tiny piece.
