How was the party?
nice. it was a cuban family reunion in tampa. it wasn't my family, and i'm not cuban. the best part, besides the tasty pig and yam (and getting to pull my pork off the carcass) was hanging with the grandmother in the kitchen while she made cuban coffee (sweetened espresso) and told me about how awful castro is. apparently he's pretty awful.
You gate crashed a Cuban family reunion!?! Nice, that is aspie skills right there.
Funnily enough when I went to Cuba in the late 90's the food wasn't all that great. And you could only get it from approved places, like your hotel. There was very few independent restaurants. They did licence families to have a table of ten or so people max. This was the best food. But pork was expensive you had to tell them in advance.
My impression of Cuba is they are very Americanised ironically. Baseball is hugely popular. They love vintage American cars which they have managed to keep running since the embargo.
It isn't the idea of cooking puppies that is cruel it is the fact that they would do it while they are still alive.
