I have lunch for fifty cents in a restaurant, and so far, we’ve been invited to eat out every night. Afterwards, I’ll just have to prepare the same thing as in the morning. The maid makes the beds and does all the rest, but there are tips, tips and more tips.
Now, while I’m writing to you, I’m sitting next to the open window, so I won’t bake from the heat.
Well, Linda mía, don’t forget to tell me everything and to take very good care of yourself. Give thousands of kisses to Isoldita, give my greetings to Toño, and tell Kitty to write to me. Give Papá a kiss (when he’s in a good mood) and, as for you, don’t forget your Frieducha who adores you
–Frieda–
Call Adri frequently.
Can you go check on how the house in San Angel is coming along?
