Jacky needs a husband

Her husband died suddenly two months ago and she needs a replacement.

She has three children, the oldest about six, who is active in the Girl Scouts, a really nice girl. The youngest, a boy, can barely walk. They are all good at helping each other out.

They are from El Salvador and have survived by making Puposas, which Jacky is an expert at. They are basically corn flour (masa) wrapped around an interior, that can be almost anything. but usually includes some meat.

If they are cooked slowly, on a grill. they are quite tasty. But most Latinos do not want to eat anything different, and they have a hard time selling them.

They are illegal residents (they can't afford the process to become legal).

I can sympathize with her (all she wants is a husband) but I have barely enough money to support myself.
