一些墨西哥人计划，以满足他们的代价离开直接举行野餐之上的墓地在当地的墓地，因为我们被告知的网，一个女主人在入口大门。

The hostess apologized to her unexpected guest for serving an applepie without any cheese.

We built a quick fire and settled in as my host mom, Maria, peeled small potatoes with a knife.

And don't be offended if you bring a bottle of wine to a party and it is not opened — the choice of wine is up to the host or hostess.

当你带了一瓶酒去聚会，酒没有被打开，不要觉得自己被冒犯了，毕竟开哪瓶的决定权在于女主人或者是男主人。
