Lunch at New Mexico farm

I cannot believe what we did for lunch today. We are at our pickup spot: an onion farm in southern New Mexico of all places. We were hungry and it was lunch time for the farm workers. We saw people coming around the building with plates so we thought there must be a vendor. We walked thru the mud (in flip flops...blech!) to the food and realized it was just for the workers. Matt, in all his wonderfully bold glory walked up and asked if we could have some, offering to pay. The white guy said, "Oh, there isn't enough for you." This Mexican guy said, "Yes, we have enough." (white people are so stingy!) The food was so good and they didn't want anything for it. It's all part of the adventure!
