The girls (Heather, Emilia, Audra, Haydee, and Carla) and I took a break between classes today and went to the beach in Santa Cruz. After some time at the beach, we walked over to a gelato shop. Actually, it's half gelato and half bakery. I was torn as we walked in, but those who know my work history know of my love for ice cream.
Gelato is not quite as sweet as ice cream and the texture is about halfway between soft serve and hand dipped ice cream. You can get all sorts of interesting flavors. We've been their twice, and I'm focusing on the fruit flavors right now. Audra loves the strawberry (marango) and Emilia has become partial to lemon (limao). I had a strange combination of lemon and chocolate today. I'd never seen anything like it before, so I had to give it a try. It was delicious. I'm eyeing the kiwi next time we go. Heather tried something called cookie that was really like vanilla with a chocolate swirl. The tiramisu she had last time was better.
Anyway, we love gelato.

Hi Andy and Heather,
It's great to catch up with your trip and see the pictures.
I identified with Heather cooking and not finding canned soup for recipes. That was true in Germany too. The gelato sounds wonderful!
We are praying for you and your work. Thanks for keeping up with the blog.
Sue
