Farewell, Friend Bucky!
We said Good Bye to Bucky with a little party eating a very popular Mexican snack:
Chicharrones Preparados
Chicharrón
preparado, or
prepared chicharrónes, are made with the large rectangular fried chicharrón de
harina, which is then topped with chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes, sour cream, cotija cheese,
sliced avocados, cueritos (pickled pork rind slices), and hot
sauce, usually Salsa Valentina or Botanera. Anyway, you can add only some of the ingredients.
Have you tasted Chicharrón preparado?
After this party, we had another little reunion to say Good Bye. This time we ate
Elotes Preparados
Elote or
corn on the cob is another Mexican popular snack. It could be roasted or
steamed and you have it on a stick (if you have it freshly cut and in a cup
those are named “Esquites”). Toppings vary but the main components are salt,
lime, mayonnaise, crumbled cheese like cotija or parmesan, and hot sauce/chile. You
can also prepare your corn only with a mixture made of lemon juice and powder
chile.
Good Bye, Friend Bucky!
We love you!
Thanks for visiting us!
Good Luck!
Bucky at the CRIT
On his last day in Mexico City, Bucky visited the Centro de Rehabilitación Infantil Teletón or CRIT – "Teleton Children's Rehabilitation Center" in Tlalnepantla, state of Mexico.
This center provides help with the rehabilitation of children that suffer different mental or motor disabilities, it also helps in the treatment of children diagnosed with cancer.
There are CRITS in many states around Mexico. They are very important because they had helped a lot of children with some kind of disability and low income, reinforcing not only their bodies but building up their self-confidence. Children and their families become stronger and happier. These are centers that literally change lives for better.
