The horchata was incredible and almost makes up for Mexico’s standardization on Coke Zero (sin azucar) instead of Diet Coke (light).

Ordering seven tacos felt like a great idea.

Our hotel is kind of ridiculous.

I’m always struck by the horrible decision American cities made to reduce green space in the core street grid, favoring parks with manicured lawns over old growth trees in embedded public squares.

Making friends already

These albondigas tho’.

You like garlic bread? How about when I add some roast beef and pepper jack?

Maybe I should have worked from here for the week…

I love how mascs wear “compression pants” and femmes wear “leggings”.

No matter how many times I tell her, Gracie doesn’t mind that begging me for snacks for hours isn’t very lady like.

Tastes better than it looks.

I added deli mustard and Aardvark hot sauce to the just ok yogurt-based dressing I have. Perfection.

I missed Louis today, so I made my version of their Huevos Rancheros.

Stop what you’re doing right now. It’s sumo season.

In the interest of having fun, I opened up my holiday gift today and built my first Lego set in over 20 years.

Plotting the number of bagels my body wants over time, as I approach bagel eating, the curve rises to a local maxima of 1. Just after finishing the bagel, the plateau shoots up almost instantaneously to 3.5 bagels. This is known as the “peak of deception”, because if I’m smart enough to wait t=10 minutes post bagel, the curve dips to -1.
