Chapter 34 - Venezuelan Party

There is just no end to the good food over here! Hotwell has employees from many nations. Three from Venezuela (and two of their spouses) hosted a party last week featuring Venezuelan food and music. Our hosts were Guillermo and his wife, Daniella; Louis; and Liliana and her husband, Daniel. They cooked the food which was delicious!
