An e-mail to Marcy.

Hi Marcy,

 

How are you? So, you want to know about my favorite dish from my country? Well, it's a dish called  quesadillas and it's very popular here in Mexico.

 

Quesadillas is a large tortilla. It has chicharron, quesillo, apazote, mushrooms, oil or fat also green or red sauce. It's very easy to cook. First, make a big tortilla of mass, then put it to sew and the  chop the chicharron and mushrooms, add the quesillo and wash the apazote. Then add all the ingredients within the tortilla and spread a little oil or fat and put sauce to taste, leave it sew for about 5 minutes. We usually eat quesadillas with a drink, preferably soda. This is a delicious dish! You should eat it!

 

How about you? Do you have a favorite dish?

Write soon!

An informal e-mail of advice

 

Hi Matt,

I´m sorry to hear that you´re having problems with your roommates. I think I can help you!
Why don’t you talk about this with your roommates? This way, you can explain how you feel and make them realize there is a problem, they can try to be quieter. Maybe they don’t know that you´re upset. You should also decide on a house rule like “no noise after 9 pm”. Then, you know you can always study and sleep after this time.
I really hope my advice helps! Write back and tell me what happens.

Adara.
