Oh, an apple. My favorite! Thank you, Suzette. Im going to play, bye! SHE RUNS AWAY. Diana, Suzette looks really good and has a lot of energy. Yes. Now, with help from SNAP, Ive learned how to buy healthier foods. I cook them differently too; I limit fried foods and eat more vegetables. And you didnt want to apply? I am so happy you kept after me to check out SNAP. Wasnt it easy? Yes, I called the toll free number and they mailed me some information At the community center the worker told me I might be eligible, even though I live with my daughter and grandson. The worker even helped me fill out the application on the computer. I was worried the benefits would stop when my husband found a job, but we still qualify. (Interrupting) My husband was relieved when we qualified. It was hard to juggle our bills. Hes impressed because I checked it out. Some people have the wrong idea about SNAP. SNAP can really help during these hard times. Now, I can buy my apples at the supermarket or even at the Farmers Market. BITING AN APPLE. By the way does anyone know the real name of this park? Isnt it called HOPE PARK? Thats how we call it, but the real name is: PARQUE ESPERANZA EULALIA
