Blog 4: Who makes this stuff?

so i went to supermarket right in front of my house called Key Food, and walk around a couple times looking for the ingredients of my favorite meal called arepas. The bag of flour cost $1.75, the mozzerela chese cost was $5.99, and the gallon of mazolla corn oil cost was at $10.99. So this was my little adventure to the supermarket and well i looked like i have never been to the supermarket due to the little knowelge i had of where were the items in the store, i had to ask around to many different people telling me its in this aisle. Also this blog made me call my mother who i havn't talk to in three days, well my mother was really pissed since i havn't called her and got a little lecture over the phone. Thanks to Prof. Smith of the long lecture from my mother.

My Favorite meal

my favorite meal is called Arepas, even though i rarely eat since i dont live at home anymore and my Mother won't make it for me any more at stop by my apartment and drop off my favorite meal. Even though i ask my girl to learn to cook it, she tried and well it really doesnt taste the same lol. I called my mother and ask her what are in the arepas. she said to prepare corn dough as above mold cakes to 2.1/2 diam. by 1 '' thick by hand. to place on slightly greased hot plate or skillet. allow a hard crust to form on both sides then place in pre heated oven at 350 F until done, takes about 10 to 15 minutes. This is my favorite meal ever since i was a little kid and everytime my mother makes it for me which is about once every 2 years it feels like its my first time tasting arepas.
