If you’ve ever traveled to Mexico, you’ll discover that they love to use Cilantro, especially in salsa. If you love the taste of Cilantro, here’s a simple, yet versatile recipe you can use.

Several months ago, I wrote about a nasty experience I had when using Air Canada to fly to Hawaii. You can read up on that experience in this post, but more to the point, I want to introduce you to a great travel resource – Elliott.org
