Celebrating our "graduation" and our last night in Querétaro by grabbing some desserts (Cheesecake Frappe and Flan con Pastel Chocolate) and listening to live music in the plaza (one of the most beautiful songs ever written, "Fly Me to the Moon"). #Day17 #LanguageStudies #ArtandCulture #eatingthroughMexico

Found the Market today!!! It was a foodies paradise... definitely need to go back and grab some lunch! #Day15 #eatingthroughMexico #meat
Julieta is at it again! Tonight, she showed us how to make Enchiladas Queretanas! These are tortillas dipped in a smoky chili salsa roja and then slightly fried in pork fat. Then, filled with queso, rolled, and then topped with queso y crema. #muysaludable (very healthy). #cookingthroughMexico #HomeStayinMexico #Enchiladas #Day13
Think your day is hard? Try playing Scrabble in Spanish!!! 🤔 #Day13 #LanguageStudies
Julieta teaching us again tonight how to make sopes! Sopes are little tortillas with thick edges so the sauces and toppings don't drip out. Topped with frijoles, queso, cebollas (onions), salsa verde, lechuga, crema, and Valentina hot sauce! These were awesome! #cookingthroughMexico #sharingculture #tastingculture #Day11

This has been on my culinary bucket list for a long time... "Eat Street Corn "Elotes" in Mexico"!!! Lime juice, mayo, cojita cheese, and a salt/lime Mexican seasoning for just $1!#eatingthroughMexico #culinarybucketlist #Day11
Reading on Discipleship this morning downtown. In a Church model where the "Cells" (small groups) ARE the Church, Discipleship becomes the most important thing, because after a year when they multiply, you HAVE to have TWICE as many strong, well discipled leaders ready to lead! Makes me wonder about the model of a lot of American Churches where you can grow and be "successful" and get by without needing Discipleship... just more seats. #DisciplesMakingDisciples #impactointernship #Day11
Tonight our host "Mamá" Julieta taught Kaitlin and I how to make Gorditos! These are fresh corn dough stuffed with ground crispy pork and then flattened a little thicker than a tortilla and cooked on the griddle! Then, carefully cut open and stuffed with cheese! Tomorrow night, she is going to show us how to make Sopes! #cookingthroughMexico #sharingculture #hechoamano #Day10

No Class = Saturday Morning Brunch! Churros con Salsa de Chocolate Caliente y Chocolate Mexicana. #eatingthroughMexico #Day10
Broke 15,000 steps for the third day in a row walking around the city trying to learn more about Querétaro and Mexican culture and to learn more about the people we want to serve! We are so thankful for this opportunity to spend 2 weeks working on our Spanish and experience what a language school would be like for a missionary. One more week of classes, and then heading to Pachuca, Mexico for 3 weeks to visit and work with the churches Impacto has planted. #Day9 #impactointernship #eatingthroughMexico #MyDogsAreBarking

We found the famous Aqueducts of Querétaro! There are 74 arches that stand 75 feet above street level. These were used to bring water into the city from regional springs until 1970! #Day8 #mexicanculture🇲🇽
