After breakfast, we carry wood around or chop it in front of the shed.

Before lunch, I go down to Refugio Notros with Lars. We have a big wooden pole with us that we shoulder alternately. To set up the new signs. On the way, we meet Marco, freshly back from his week off, visibly refreshed and in a good mood. We talk for a while. Marco has brought us a clay lucky pig from his homeland. It has three legs, hopefully brings luck, and you can put incense sticks in its anus. ¡Guardate! (Take good care of it!)

Once we reach the bottom, we eat quinoa, pea-potato puree, and soy mince.

The weather is getting worse.

I show Jan how to make Pancitos:

• 4-5 cups of flour
  
• 3-4 tbsp dry yeast
  
• 1 tsp salt
  
• 1 tbsp sugar
  

1. Mix everything together
   
2. Put 1-2 tbsp oil or a good piece of butter in about 1 cup of warm water
   
3. Knead the liquid into the dry mass gradually to form a large lump
   
4. Cover with a towel and let it sit for at least 1 hour
   
5. Divide the risen dough into chicken egg-sized pieces and shape them into round Pancitos with your thumbs
   
6. Line a pot with aluminum foil
   
7. Place it on the stove
   
8. Preheat
   
9. Place the raw dough on the aluminum foil
   
10. Put the lid on
    
11. Turn them every few minutes
    

We enjoy the Pancitos today with canned fish salad from Pati (better than it sounds).
