Could be worse. One of my favorite breakfasts in Western Mexico is eggs
with dried, spiced shredded beef, 'huevos con machaca'. One morning on
business trip, I was really tired from the long days and short sleeps
and ordered 'huevos con muchacha', 'eggs with woman', in front of all my
business associates, including the Mexicans we were negotiating with. A
terrific laugh to start the day!
