coconut paleta

Paletas, for those of you who don't know, are mexican popsicles. A new paleta place opened up down the street from us a month or so ago, La Paletera. They have about thirty flavors of paletas, and ice cream and fresh fruit cups as well. So when a real estate agent called and wanted to show our house 10 minutes from the time of the call, we (me, Spousal Unit, [livejournal.com profile] landley, and [livejournal.com profile] fadethecat) hotfooted down there to get away from the house. I had the coconut paleta, which was terrific - almost all chunks and shreds of coconut, in a base of water, cream, sugar - but mostly the coconut! It was quite munchy.

I wish someone would make an offer on the house already. I bored above crowd to tears earlier today, reading real estate listings aloud -all the houses in this neighborhood that are smaller than ours, and/or asking a higher price - so why is ours still sitting here like a lump? Even after a nice brunch and paletas and knitting, worrying about the house has me anxious most of the time.
