Ok, is this the COOLEST or what? Tuesday night, Carlos brought me a PAELLA for dinner!!! This isn’t just any average paella. This is pura, Valenciana paella.
Carlos is our home teacher, neighbor down the street, and a member who was baptized in Valencia while mom and dad were there. Dad even gave him a blessing while he was living in Spain. So neat that he moved here and now lives about six houses away. Anyhow, it was a fabulous surprise. I was so incredibly giddy!! Of course I had to take pictures of it.
So here is our paella pa ella. In English it means a paella for her, and Ella’s name means she/her in Spanish. So basically it’s saying a paella for Ella. On our honeymoon, we snapped some photos in front of a restaurant with the same name. Coincedence? I think not!

Sometimes my heart hurts when I think of Spain. I’m still not over feeling just a little cheated about not being able to go back and visist. (sigh) Say “hi” to Carlos for us. Fun that he is your home teacher!! Ask him if he could send one of those down here to Mexico!! jk HEY! We’ll be able to see him while we are there!! YEA!!
