Tetelque

Tetelque is that weird feeling between your tongue and your teeth when you eat unripe fruit or spinach. It's a cool Salvadoran word, but it has absolutely nothing to do with this blog, other than the occasional picture of mamones, which kind of invoke the feeling of tetelque.

My husband makes handy household objects out of leaves for fun.
