Since I had already had my meal fit for a king, I decided to go to the opposite extreme and have a pauper's meal, something that I did every once in a while when I was living here 20 years ago. For a quick night time snack nothing can beat the mixture of oatmeal cookies and chocolate milk. It makes up a wonderful type of chocolate sludge which is great tasting and filling as well.
Later that evening we passed by the home of our good friend Graciosinha, who has taken care of my wife, her family and probably everyone in the neighborhood and some point in the past 35 years that she has been there. Age has taken its toll, but she remains an integral part in the life of the neighborhood. Along with her, I also have another new best friend, Fofinha, her pet dog. Fofinha is shy at first, but once she gets to know you she loves to stay with you and have her tummy rubbed.
