    Pati, I am excited to try the tuna minilla casserole and the triple lime pound cake. My five year old son and I love watching your show, you make it seem so easy to prepare these meals. Gracias por promover la comida mexicana en una manera tan divertida y refrescante! I loved the papaya topping you made for the pound cake, my favorite tropical fruit!
