Los Duraznos

Elena, Alison and I created a club called Los Duraznos. Elena´s husband, Alison´s father and several other guys (one´s a cocktail vendor with a portable bar, his name is la Poeta..don´t know why) have a club of their own called Las Mandarinas... mandarine oranges. Not sure why they chose that fruit, but we chose Los Duraznos (peaches) because they´re soft on the outside but have a tough and strong core. And when mature, they´re extra sweet and juicy! HA!

Elena is 30 and she´s la reina (the queen). I´m la princesa and I don´t remember Alison´s official title. It´s la gran something. She´s only 17 but has a good head on her shoulders. Her dad Julio runs the local taxi service and is a great guy. He loves pop music but the old school stuff...we rocked out to Gloria and I Will Survive, from his car. Alison has him wrapped around her finger. Good for her!

I have to admit, I love listening to people´s impressions of the words to songs in English. It´s a riot! I can remember not knowing the words to songs as a kid. David made so much fun of me! I´m not making fun, but it´s a good time for sure. I´m enjoying hearing what people who speak mostly Spanish come up with!
