souvenirs

things i brought back with me from mexico:

1 Julieta Venegas CD (not pirated)
1 hot pink rebozo
1 strawberry shaped magnet made of hojalata
1 hanging angel mobile (hojalata)
1 miniature nativity set (hojalata)
1 engraved candle holder of barro negro
1 brightly painted owl carved out of wood (alebrije)
1 wooden pot holder
6 huipiles (shameless, i know)
1 man's longsleeved dark blue and white embroidered shirt
1 blue T-shirt with "Mexico" emblazoned below indigenous figures
8 recipes for traditional mexican cuisine
1 stomach ailment

i thought the stomach ailment was food poisoning, but since it's lasted about a week now, i decided to take it to the doctor. he thinks it might be e coli.

*sigh*

The most important souvenirs are intangible, your journeys.
