Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly.

We decided to change our challenge to somewhere else and before we can begin it. Carmina had to make sure Mary Ann is prepared with a thick winter jacket and a pair of boots.

Mary Ann said she left her winter clothes in Germany. Carmina went to the old house where she had use to live to get winter clothes that was given to her from family members from California. Due to my diet, I've lost a lot of weight and decided to give what no longer fits me. I looked into a room where we store our winter clothes and came across a thick jacket that Mama Tess has given to me. The color really suits Mary Ann since it is also her favorite. My niece had given me her old pair of UGG Boots in a size 7 made in Vietnam. Just wait until February comes and you'll see where we are headed too. NOTE: Carmina is not selling or advertising for Mary Ann'...
