Let me start by saying that the above photo that features, arroz moro, plantains, and chicken wings, is not what Alex eats. Once in a while I do mix a very small amount of rice and beans with her food to add taste and fiber, but not this particular rice, arroz moro, because it has…

Going Back Home
Dexter was picked up by his mom this morning, and I finally remembered to ask her why does he like to sit pretty? She said that he likes to sit pretty so he can get his belly rubbed. The mystery was finally solved. Sarris will be picked up this evening. She is one of the many…
