WOW spice!

So today was the first day my maid (I feel silly and slightly snobby American saying I have a maid), but anyways, she is great, super friendly, and tells me about all the places to shop! Anyways back to what I was saying... Today was the first day, Selena (my maid), cooked for me! Oh boy that first bite was delicious and then WOW, POW, SPICE!!! Ahhh, I think I downed an entire bottle of apple juice and half a loaf of bread (ok so maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration) but it was spicy! I'm definitely going to have to tell her to tone down the spices for my American tongue!!!
