Fish shop for tuna fillets. Tim went home with the fish; we went on to Crystal & Marcio's.
Bible study at Crystal's with tea and pineapple.
Plaça das Frutas for veggies and bread (try as we might, we could not get Sra Pão to shift over to the brown breads! But the so-called sandwich rolls were delicious. AND she threw in a fourth for free!)
Lunch at home with Tim. Tomato & sardine open-faced sandwiches. Yum.
Did laundry and chilled.
Hung laundry to dry in the breeze from the veranda, then a nap.
Cider and bites with the expat group. Met Peggy and Sonu from the Bronx.
Home for sautéed tuna filets with broccoli and curried turnips.Leia mais
