on my way to work

On my route to work the other day, I decided that my coffee would be just a little smoother with some milk.  So I decide to swing into the neighborhood pulperia (small typical convenience store in just about every neighborhood in Costa Rica- abarrotes o mini supers in other countries) for a small box.  On my way in I wish my vecinos a good day, and all the while smiling at the beautiful day I have ahead of me. Things get better once there because today is the day the clini is open, so there are tons of people in the neighborhood (WAIT, don't get confused, Im not happy because there are sick people or people that need to visit the clinic... keep reading) Im happy because that means that other people bring their wares to sell. ANNNND  It just so happens that while I am shooting the breeze with the son of the pulperia owner, who is obligated to work at the family store, in walks a Colombia man selling arepa con queso.  Obviously I have to buy one.  I love homem...
