Churros con chocolate
The question that remains is whether the churro is originally Spanish or Mexican. Instead of doing theirs thick with sugar and cinnamon (the way we know it), Spaniards dip theirs in melted chocolate. It was a quad-continental re-union. Meg flew from India to hang out with MC and I in Fes, and then the three of made our way (via Barcelona) to Madrid, where we met Katie Wang, recently arrived from New York. The four of us set about to explore the city that lives in the shadow of Barcelona; we found it more charming than we expected and spent most days wandering the streets and navigating the metro map. The trip was made possible by Katie Wang's Thanksgiving break from teaching, so we set about to have a (somewhat) proper Thanksgiving at our hostel and with wine and two slices of pumpkin pie, gave thanks for reunions of old friends in new places.

Churros
http://thepassionatecook.typepad.com/thepassionatecook/2007/06/churros-con-cha.html A recipe for Mexican churros -- but it seems pretty excellent nonetheless. I miss you all and am glad to see you had a lovely Thanksgiving.
