Such vivid and special memories with your Mami. I love the idea of her being like... "I'm no abuela in this house". Arroz con leche was never a favourite of mine growing up either, but the song is an absolute banger. Thanks for this beautiful piece of writing!!

Thank you Arielle! The song is a bit more problematic now that I hear it with adult ears lol. It's about looking for a perfect wife that knows how to cook, clean and sew...yikes! 😅😬
