So there I was yesterday morning … had just finished my FIRST NEW CLASS with a very charming friend of Agustín’s, and was working on my friend Lizzie’s new Twitter page for her fabulous Folk House Cafe & Bar in Bristol, when the doorbell rang and the postman said he had a package for me. I had no idea what it might be and was really taken by surprise when I saw it was from one of my oldest & dearest friends from Toronto, Darlene – and also her beautiful daughter Adrienne. So I opened it up and saw it was a whole whack of small blue-ribboned prezzies wrapped in yellow tissue paper, with good old Halloween kisses used for filler. It was hard not to cry, so I did. But you know, happy tears. I’d talked with Darlene on Skype during the summer, and just this week was thinking that I should send her a quick email so she’d know I was still thinking about her – and it turned out she’d also been thinking about me! Anyhow, if you want to see what was in the little packets, have a look below…

This is Tofu … Flor’s new laptop.

A Toshiba Satellite L300 29U. And nobody is more surprised than Flor that she ended up buying a new computer yesterday, as that had not been even remotely on her “to-do” list. But  we’d got to talking after yoga class about this and that, and I asked if she still wanted me to help her with her computer stuff. You may recall that awhile back I helped set her up with a WordPress blog, a Twitter account, a new Gmail account, Fotki, and a few other things. It was after doing this that I got the idea that I could probably charge money for this sort of thing. But then I went back on chemo and everything went for a burton. Until yesterday …

girls night out
Alejna & Janet at casa az

Long-time blog friend Alejna of collecting tokens (I think we met over at Raincoaster’s) is in town this week, with her mother and husband and two gorgeous kidlets. On Friday we decided to have a girls night out and I took Alejna & Janet on a wee tapas tour, to three quite different places. First stop was El Rinconcillo, the oldest bar in Sevilla, to sample the best “espinacas con garbanzos” along with a glass of manzanilla sherry. Then on to Modesto so that Alejna could try some “calamares del campo” (aka “land squid” – bit of a private joke). And finally we stopped off at La Sal for some of the best tuna in town…
