Taiwan, Horchata, and a mean game o' MASH

I haven't written much about my time in DC, or about the people that surrounded me there. One of my wonderful roomates in DC--Danya--is from Mexico City. She is warm, funny, and absolutely gorgeous! Often she would come home from a long day at work and make Horchata--a refreshing drink on those hot and humid summer nights. Lucky me--she was also incredibly generous with sharing her authentic Mexican food secrets. She knew I was soon going to find myself in the land of rice, and she taught me how to make this delectable treat. Bless her!

Last night was the perfect evening for such a treat. Five of us Berhaners got together for a spiritual thought, an AMAZING game of MASH (flash back to grade school days), and Horchata. The evening could have only been enjoyed by a group of 20-something ex-pats. And it was glorious.

My future is to be spent living in the lap of luxury in a gorgeous mansion, with James McAvoy, who is no longer an adorable actor, but a lawyer. Those are probably the only good things about my proposed future because I am also to work in a sweat shop in Mexico working for 1 cent an hour. I will have 25 children, and have dinosaur as a pet. But I guess another redeeming item is that I spent my honeymoon on the Croatian coast. Lovely.

Overall these are the nights that make memories. I'm excited for much more with this awesome group of people!
