This is dedicated this to all Peace Corps volunteers in Peru. I wish you all a very Feliz Navidad!
Cuyes con papas and coffee in mugs;
Riding in combis and kids giving hugs;
Hiking up mountains like the Lord of the Rings;
These are a few of my favorite things.
When the pig bites
When the shower stings
When I'm feeling fat
I simply remember my favorite things
*So then I don't hit people with a bat…
Dancing the huayno and working in gardens;
Sipping hot milk and art from old cartons;
Playing volley no matter if it's spring,
These are a few of my favorite things.
When the pig bites
When the shower stings
When I'm feeling fat
I simply remember my favorite things
*So then I don't hit people with a bat…
Bright neon sweaters; canchita of corn;
Humitas con queso and babies being born;
Watching **Gossip Girl for all the joy that it brings;
These are a few of my favorite things.
When the pig bites
When the shower stings
When I'm feeling fat
I simply remember my favorite things
*So then I don't hit people with a bat…

*Katie Lee has some rage issues and helped me with this last line.
**True Blood also works here, as does many other TV shows (i.e. The Wire, Glee, The Office…)
