Nick's Really Big Latin Style Meal
Uncle Nick came in for a visit yesterday. Tonight, he helps to prepare a
Puerto Rican style meal, which was largely based on his suggestion. He
was an ideal helper for Robin as the meal was rather large and many of the
dishes were new. It all worked out wonderfully as all of the dishes were
fabulous.
