In The Key Of Z (and a plug for Deborah's)
The month of May means smoky skies and red sunrises and sunsets. Folks with respiratory difficulties may find the smoky air uncomfortable until the rains start (our Hurricane Season/Rainy Season officially begins one week from today), though it hasn't been too bad so far.

Our esteemed and longtime friend Deborah invited my sweetie and me to her new location in Ixtapa last Friday, and because Lupita and I had had an extremely stressful week I didn't waste any time adjusting my mood to the occasion.

Deborah's talented staff spoiled us rotten! Javier Solís prepared to perfection an orgasmic dish for us they call the House Flambéed Shrimp. One of the best shrimp dishes I've ever eaten!

One of the main reasons Deborah invited us on a Friday is because it's when she was making a special coconut and chocolate cream pie with hand-whipped cream on top. There are no words except to say it was sheer ecstasy! If I weren't already married...
We can't thank you enough, Deborah, for sharing your warm hospitality with us as well as for treating us to your incomparably exquisite culinary skills! What an evening! What a treat! What a friend!
