I’d decided it was time to cover our two plastic tables on the upstairs patio with a tablecloth.  These are plastic Coca Cola tables that have a groove on each side to keep spilled or sweating drinks from dripping off the edge.  The problem is these grooves collect rain and dew and dirt, too.  I figured my favorite heavy duty flowered plastic would be perfect!  I think it looks pretty cool (above), don’t you?  (23 pesos per meter)

While I was out I decided to pop into a dulceria just for fun.  I have a sweet tooth, you know.   I knew they  mostly carried the fixin’s for stuffing piñatas, but I figured I’d probably find something to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Little did I know that I’d come home with groceries! (below)

And even though I have been off cigarettes for a year, I couldn’t resist buying some cigarritos!  Aren’t the names funny?

And finally, here is what the candy inside looks like, just little colored balls of sugar.  It’s sitting on the other plastic I bought…some of which is going to become a new beach bag, I think.

(Both San Vicente (the store with the plastic) and the dulceria are on Teniente Azueta between Genaro Estrada & Miguel Hidalgo in Centro)
