Querida Abuela:

Espero que todo te este hiendo bien en el retiro. Se que estuviste hacienda mucho trabajo las semanas pasadas y necesitas paz y descanso.

(aqui se me olvido el espanol)

Retreats are good places to get to know different people and share your wisdoms on life. Everyone there is encouraging and hopes for your well being. Approach the retreat with humble arms and an open mind and the rewards, if not spiritual, will definitely be fruitful.

I am looking forward to receiving your package, though I fear that all these chicharitas and wonderful cakes, while elegantly delicious, are making me a little thicker around the waist. Today it hurt to try and fit into the only suit I have. Either way the extra weight is a welcome side effect to the exquisiteness of your cuisine. One thing I miss most about Miami, besides the company, is the good ol’ Cuban cooking which you happen to master so well.

Thank you for all the support you’ve given me, both emotionally and physically. I always look forward to reading your letters and have been, as you suggest, been spending the little money I have wisely. Once again I hope everything goes well and that you make a lot of new friends and build a strong relationship with yourself. Though it is impossible for me to be there in spirit, I will be there in heart.

Love and Hugs
