January 14, 2015. More rain in South Padre Island

CAMPGROUND:  Another night at Isla Blanca Park
WEATHER: Cold, fierce winds, drizzle. Highs in 40s

Today is supposed to be the last day of the bad weather.  The wind gusts are about 25 mph. Drizzle all day.

I made chicken stock from leftover chicken bits, then  2 soups.  The cooking warmed the camper, and made it smell homey.  

We went to a laundromat on the mainland to do laundry.  It was fun to people-watch.  We were the only non-Spanish speaking people there. 

 Fancy that....the laundry was next door to Joe's Oyster Bar, so we returned for their happy hour-priced oysters.  Has anyone ever over-dosed on oysters?  :-)


Joe's also has a fresh seafood shop.  We bought a small flounder filet, brought it back to the camper, and made fresh ceviche.  Really tasty!

DINNER:  I made an Indian dish using a packet of Indian spices I had from India, with mango pickle (my favorite!) on the side.   I put it over rice, chicken and chickpeas.
