Let’s go to Wikipedia for a little information about our yummy Haven of Hope meal for our September meeting.
“A pupusa (Spanish pronunciation: [puˈpusa], from Pipil pupusaw) is a traditional Salvadoran dish made of a thick, handmade corn tortilla (made using masa de maíz, a cornmealdough used in Latin American cuisine) that is usually filled with a blend of the following:
- cheese (queso) (usually a soft cheese called Quesillo found throughout Central America)
- cooked pork meat ground to a paste consistency (called chicharrón, not to be confused with fried pork rind, which is also known as chicharrón in some other countries)
- refried beans (frijoles refritos), or queso con loroco (loroco is a vine flower bud from Central America).” (Obtained 9/19/14 from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pupusa)
Our group members enjoyed this unique treat which was provided by one of the group participants. They also enjoyed the chance to 
get together and share with others who have experienced a loss similar to their own, that being the death of one or both parents.
If you are an adult child or grandchild and would like the opportunity to share with others who are walking a similar journey, please come join us for our November 20th meeting (6-7:30pm at 824 Elmwood Park Blvd., Ste 145, NOLA in the SJH Bereavement Office). If you have any questions or need to directions, please feel free to call me (Kim) at 504-734-0140 or e-mail me at stjosephnober@yahoo.com.
(Sidenote: Two group participants plan to bring pizza and sausage rolls from the well-loved Mo’s Pizza in Westwego for the November meeting. Trust me, you will not go home hungry. )
