It's gotten colder here in Mexico (although in the afternoons I can still go out in short sleeves), and now that I have appropriate clothing I am absolutely loving the weather! Actually, my favorite reason for the weather is that they are now selling champurrado in the streets. Champurrado is a hot drink made with corn meal, chocolate, cinnamon, and other spices. Mmm...delicious!

Also, my taste buds (and my stomach) have become used to being in Mexico. For example:

I can't eat pizza without salsa on top of it (it's soooo good).
I can eat tacos from the street vendors...without getting sick!
I regularly crave elote: corn with crema, cheese, and chili.

In San Luis they called that drink atole I think.
