January 2014 - Mazatlan Mexico

As we are in Mazatlan for two months in a condo I thought I'd share some food/cooking photos.

The challenge in a timeshare is the lack of your pantry basics so you learn to make do. Often if you rent a private home the previous renters will leave basics behind so you have staples like flour, sugar, spices.

Our kitchen - that's cilantro in the glass with the plastic bag over it.

Reading labels at the grocery store can also be a challenge! A flyer from Mega. Prices are in pesos!

Check Carol's blog for a glimpse inside the store.

Local soft drink (bebida) - ToniCol I've heard it is a cross between root beer, cola and cream soda...

A sample of some items we have bought.

 Tomatoes that taste like tomatoes!! Click here for some tomato dishes we made.

Or you can shop at the market
