Freshly Squeezed
Today’s picture of the day is from the city of Puebla, but it could have been taken in many cities and towns in Mexico.
Shari, Nathanael and I went to Puebla to take Shari to the doctor and take care of some other errands. The trip went well for the most part, although we were pretty exhausted by the time we got home!
Anyway, the picture is of a roadside juice stand. Freshly squeezed juice is a joy of Mexico that I don’t take advantage of nearly as much as I should. But there are some wonderful stands like this, and when you get into a restaurant you can find some fancier mixes – pineapple, orange, papaya, mango, nopal (cactus), banana – and on and on. What can I say? Sweeeeeet!

Mmmm! I bet these fruit drinks are better than any Orange Julius beverages.

I think you’re probably right…
