In England we call them Toffee apples and they were always at sale when the fair came to town along with “Candy Floss” and hot sugar doughnuts…………….sugar sugar and more sugar!

I am always amazed at how people from Chimaltenango found their way up into the Great White North, and it is incredible to talk to someone who lived in the places I only visit for a few weeks at a time. I think they are just as amazed as I am when we talk about the best places for pan dulces y cafe, or where to find the best tejidos near Los Encuentros. I would say we need much more of the music, food and culture Guatemalteca up here, but that’s what trips to (and around) the Vortex are for, no ? With all of these delicious-looking photos, I may be back in La Antigua sooner than I planned. Mmmmmm!

In Canada, in the almost 10 years I’ve been here, Spanish went from being in the top 20 languages spoken to being in the top 5. In my ‘hood I hear Spanish spoken everyday (although I hear also Tagalog every day,but that is more neighborhood effect and Spanish is more widespread around the city).
