Gifts from Ecuador

Gracias papi y mami! (Thanks Mom and Dad!)

My sister just graduated from the University to Notre Dame! So my parents came from Ecuador and stayed a couple of days in New York City before we all headed to Notre Dame. They brought me Ecuadorian coffee and papaya and passionfruit jam. Both are absolutely delicious!!!

One of the things I miss the most about Ecuador is the amount, variety and affordability of fruits we have, this jam is a perfect reminder of home.

And the graduation was great. I got to see President Obama live! I wont forget that any time soon.
