Im from texas,  and my husband is fr.     Mexico D.F.   and i love los tacos de marano y los cocteles de frutas y de camaron . They make better food in Mexico thn in usa.  Health food . I went to Mexico with my husband for 8mnths and lost 150lbs jst walking and eating right since we walked evry day para el centro.  Plus i couldn't get pregnaunt in Texas cause of my weight.  But when i wuz in Mexico that long and returned to texas i found out i wuz 5mnths pregnaunt so that wuz a miracle.  Its cause in mexico evrythng is so original and good and health y to eat nopales con frijol un poco de todo.  My son estaba echo en Mexico y nacido en estados unidos. My son know s Spanish and English . Its really good for them to know cause in the near future when thy look for ajob they pay more when u know 1or more languages. I know both since my mom is frm mexico and we speak more Spanish in the house.

BritNyabuto: That's great i like the idea of having a lot of diferent lenguages, at home we have german,spanish,catalan and english!!! Monicool: I live in Barcelona, where did you live in Spain??? are you missing la tortilla de patatas???. Muneca32: I love empanadas rellenas de papa que rico, with salsa picante, is really nice to keep the culture especially for the kids so they learn about their roots.
mrs_palomo08: Yo tortillas de maiz con fish cooked in lemo (ceviche de pescado que bueno), tambien paella española...i had mostly latino food cravings and a fruit called Guanabana, there is none in Spain :-(.
Mreeah: Is easy solo que tu siempre has de hablarle en español asi lo asocia contigo...and the dad english!!! todayyyyistheday: What an interesting mix you have there...i wanted limon con pepinos during one whole week, i always something diferent everyday LOL. Rossy25: que mezcla tienes tambien :-D, el arroz nunca puede faltar, que es sancocho??? Nov7thmommy: Mango??? hahaha ya me antoje ves...es mas facil que aprendan español de pequeños, luego de mayores es un idioma muy complicado de aprender.
melyjp1:si es lo mejor que la escuela se encargue del idioma local. Aqui solo hablan catalan y ya lo aprenden en la escuela so you can focus in the other lenguages.

My antojos have been fruits which is great for my health... other then that I eat a lot of arroz con diferentes convinaciones como sancocho a dominican soup. And the other day I really wanted longanisa which is a Dominican sausage.

I will teach my babies Spanish. Their daddy is from Laos, but I'm pretty sure they will only know Spanish and English since they will be with me most of the time. I crave lemonade!

I know that this technically doesn't apply to me...but my family is multicultural living in America. It is easier to teach the little ones to be bi- or tri- lingual from the start rather trying to teach them later on. If it is common in your home or family to be speaking multiple languages they will naturally pick it up. In our home we speak both English and Swahili my husband also speaks a couple other languages that I am not familiar with yet but are his local and neighboring languages but he mainly speaks those when he is talking to family and friends from home.

I make empanadas, relleno de papa, arroz con habichuelas. If my Abuela were her I'd be eating more stuff. I didn't teach my first child Spanish and that was a huge mistake. My husband is Puerto Rican too but he knows no Spanish so I will teach this child and hope my hubs and son pick it up as well. Living in the US most of my life as a military brat makes some things harder bto hold on to culturally.
