Apparently, I can speak Portuguese
So yesterday after the Holocaust Memorial and Museum, a bit depressing and long, but worth it, I took the Metro up to Wheaton to check out a Brazilian grocer, and to my surprise and delight I found an other. The first one was alright, I was a bit overwhelmed just to be around people speaking Portuguese, but for some reason did not feel welcome enough to speak the language, maybe it was the lack of farofa. So after a while I got some guarana, Toddy, soap, and an empanada then left. I had seen an other store on the way to the first and so I decided to stop by By Brazil. Oh I was welcomed and guess what? The store had farofa and a feijão mix. That was all I was going to get, but I decided to give Rocio a call and was checking out and got an empanada de camarão and the woman was like “Stay, eat, no need to leave (in Portuguese).” I asked Rocio if she wanted to talk, because she is kicking rump in her Portuguese comprehension. She loved it. I loved it. Highlight of my day.
