Just to confirm that Portuguese food is so good  :)
Even for a French !
And people is so nice; it's a lovely country !

Amaterasu   : pm me your postal adress, and I will send you a box
of natural salt of Guerande, wich is the most popular here in Europe
in great restaurants, and even in the States in restaurants owned par french Chefs !

That salt is totally natural, " hand made " in salinas as says  Armap, wich some
are aged about 800 years ; ( yes, eight hundred years ! )

When you smell it, it look like flowers and other very delicate perfumes ...

I'm sure you would, as the American accents (but mostly some South American accents, like Argentinian) sound closer to Portuguese than the "original" Castellano, even if we share a common past.

PS: most of the difference in accent between Portuguese and Castellano (or Castilian) sounds like the result of the long Moor occupation of what is now Spain, as Castellano sounds like Portuguese with an Arab accent. :)

I got acquainted with Castilian through My first ex - He was from Argentina, an Argentine Jew, in fact (though not of any religion).  He taught Me things like pronouncing the "LL" and the "Y" sounds more like a soft "J."  And using "manteca" for butter, rather than the Mexican "mantecilla."  "Manteca," in Mexican, means "lard."  LOL!

I would love to ply My tongue to Portuguese - both the language AND the food!  LOL!

In Portuguese that would be "manteiga".

I don't have money to offer you a trip to Portugal, but I can help you with Portuguese any time. :)

I've lived here all my life and i don't do 'hot' either. You can have spicey and not be hot. Use a little les ls cayenne and you're fine. I have some great receipes.
Greetings:

Welcome back and glad to hear you're getting better.

When you're up to it, have dinner at my friend Cajun Charlie's in Sulphur.

Our first response team based out of the Hampton Inn for Hurricane Ike and became great friends with Charlie and his crew and happen to have a mutual friend - Joel Sonnier.

Peace Love Light
