bread!

A tradition here for Holy Week (Semana Santa) is to make sweet bread (pan dulce) including something called quesadilla...NOT the quesadilla you're thinking of. Quesadilla down here is corn or rice flour, cream, butter, cheese, and tons of sugar, which makes a sweet, dense bread (much to my dismay the first time I tried it, expecting the Mexican style quesdilla). Today, I made quesadillas with Profe Celina and the 8th grade class. Here are some pics:
