The only place I lived on the main drag was in Miami Beach... it was the last time... good advice for us to heed in an already normally loud part of the world.

After awhile it gets irritating lol. At first I thought it was normal out here, until I went around to different parts.

I learned to use white noise or zen music... to distract. Do you have yucca there? Is it a staple? If so, do you have a recipe?

Oh yea, there's plentiful of yuca here. How I like it isn't the healthiest of ways, but it's my preferred choice. Peeled, cut up and fried as French fries (yuca frita). And another way is a empanada made with yuca. Both deep fried in oil, but not to eat all the time, balance is the key.

I love it immersed in oil and garlic. I've never seen it around here, but yucca and black beans with rice: to die for!
