I'm in love

[El Hijo de Manolo]

When I was new to the DR, I knew a Canadian woman who ran a bed and breakfast in Puerto Plata.

One time I was there for breakfast, she had a supply of large Portobellos. She said that someone had purchased them for her in Santiago.

That was my only sighting in the DR.

Must be very $$$

Mr AE isn’t a big mushroom fan, (I love them) but the late mod Matilda/Lindsay was obsessed with them and they were never available where she lived in the mountains. All her friends knew they were her favorite hostess gift 😊.

Anyway, at the Agro Fair held every February/March in Santo Domingo at the Féria Ganadera, there’s usually one company with a massive display of every mushroom you might want. Farm fresh. They sell them too (I think it was 100 pesos a package), which, of course, doesn’t help keepcoming now. I always bought a bunch for Lindsay, and she feasted on omelets, soups and stews for awhile.

Yes, I know that she died a while ago.

I was new to living in the DR in 2001, which was before her dearh.
