November's a very busy month for us as we're hosting 5 teams, but I (Greg) still had time to take my student leaders out to the first and still only Taco Bell restaurant in Mexico. Their reaction to the cuisine - Mexican food as interpreted by the American fast food industry - was interesting to say the least. They politely tolerated it...not sure they enjoyed it as much as I did! But it was their first time so I'm willing to give them a break.

I love Taco Bell! But it is a far cry from authentic Mexican [smile].

We like Taco Bell once in a while, but once you've eaten Tita's cooking, NOTHING north of the border measures up!! I can imagine the guys politely tolerating the counterfeit. Once you know "the real thing", the counterfeit is easy to spot!!!
Do you see Tita?? Give her a hug from me, okay???
