Dinner at Tulipanes

My friend Socorro took me out to dinner tonight. There is an excellent Latin American restaurant in town and she wanted to be the one to introduce me to it. (Socorro is also my Spanish instructor.) We spoke Spanish for all the ordering, but I confess that the rest of our conversation was in English. The food was wonderful and I enjoyed spending time getting to know a new friend. Although I hadn't shared with Socorro that I had been feeling down, it was a great pick-me-up on this rainy Wednesday.
