Hola, Maya here.
It's been quite hard cooking here, but we've had very delicious meals.  The only things we have to cook with is one pot, one pan, 2 burner stove, 3 forks, 4 spoons, 4 knives, 4 plates, 4 bowls, 4 cups, a cooler, and food we buy from the market.  We walk almost everyday to La Fruteria and the market that we buy what we need.  It's about a 15 minute walk there, but we get use to it.   One of our first home cooked meals was pasta, with cooked vegetables and tomato sauce.  It was delicioso.  We have a grapefruit tree in our front yard, and Jacey and I have made juice many times.  My mom's friend gave us a juicer, which is a lot easier.  The first time, we had to hand make it, and strain it. 

We bought a soccer ball in one of Paraguay's team colors (cerro porteno).  Me and that soccer ball made good friends!  My mom drinks mate almost every morning; she loves that stuff.  Me and Jacey like terere and mate, but we can only drink it sometimes because it has something like caffiene in it.

Hasta luego,
Maya
