Mariachi’s has new owners.

The woman on the radio (she is one of the hosts of the morning show on Y98) was VERY upset by it. She raved about Mariachi’s. I heard her talk about them previously on the show.

I HATE to go in there if they’ve changed! I can see it now:

1. I park

2. I walk in

3. All gringos working now – don’t recognize a soul.

4. Say “I’m out of here!”

5. Leave

At WORK in our WORK cafeteria they made a bacon bomb yesterday!!! I guess they couldn’t resist the challenge! I of course would have sampled it (at least you can try it without making the whole darn thing) but I had a meeting and by then it was gone, whatta world, whatta world!

I don’t like them. They look like testicles, and therefore I can’t think of anything else when I try to eat them.

Hi Girls,
It is just after 10pm and I learned that XXXXX has recalled, because of the peanut contamination, their peanut covered donuts. Guess what I had for breakfast this am? Yeah, I bought 3 donuts yesterday, and had 1/2 of the peanut donut this morning. Oh oh, it is now only 11 hours since I ate, it looks like I have from now until about 72 hours to see if I’m infected. Dad is taking the 1/2 peanut donut and the other glazed donut back in the morning.

They sure looked so good!!! Why didn’t I resist the call of the peanut donut?

Ok, 12-72 hours and counting. LOL Hummmmmm…..nice to be close to the bathroom. Get the bucket Tim.
Love,
Mom

I forgot to tell you that I ate all the sweets you bought and left behind at Xmas–I don’t even particularly like sweets!…I am really going to change my eating habits and enjoy eating fresh fruit and veg. To that end I have just purchased a bag of grapes. I mean it this time I am going to get in shape and feel good about it. Phil is now so fat that when he rolls over in bed he takes all the covers with him and I end up freezing – I know too much information-he says a dog is the answer – I said I’m not sleeping with a dog-thought that may make you chuckle! Your buxom mother xx

Backstory: My dad is the only male in our family, with my mom and then my two sisters and myself. He is constantly out numbered. In fact my husband is convinced we killed his “man-spirit” years ago. My dad is also a weepy kind of guy, cries more then my mom by far. Poor dad.

Your dad just walked in to take my lunch order. He is my slave, no wait, he is my bitch. Hey bitch! I want some lunch! Your dad would like to say a quick hi, but he’s too busy being my bitch. Love you.

Pls let me know what you would like me to have, foodwise, in the refrig/pantry.  It’s been a year since you’ve been home, so I probably need to stock up, vegan-wise.  As long as I’m going on a grocery shopping trip, I may as well buy specific to your wants/needs/plans.  I did go to the health food place for Egg Replacer, plus some surprises. And, there are already 4 to 5 (?) boxes of tofu at home.

We can go shopping on the way home from the airport (after we go out to eat!), but you know I’ll want to go to Walmart and I’m not sure how you’re feeling about them these days, though I’d bet that the [local grocery store] employees (for instance) don’t get much/any more salary/benefits than W-mart.  So, I’ll go to Walmart in advance of your arrival, and that makes it different, ’cause you’re not a knowing participant.

Love you oodles,
Mom

Hi Sweetie,
Yes, Thanksgiving was memorable. Jimmy wore his finest sweatpants and announced he was no longer giving birthday or holiday gifts or cards to anyone. He had little stubs of used candles on his table. They couldn’t have been more than 3/4 of an inch tall. When someone asked about them he replied, “Well, I thought I could probably get one more dinner out of them.” So much for graciousness. We brought the dinner. His part was preparing a vegetable. Of course to go with the Thanksgiving theme he chose Oriental vegetables in a lovely flavored sauce that positively bounced off your tongue it was so strong. Then he combined asparagus and squash which resulted in the squash being over cooked and the asparagus too tough to chew. It was a culinary delight. His niece also announced that they were not exchanging gifts but not to fret for we would all receive pictures of their children. Honestly, I can hardly wait. So there you have it, another Hallmark Thanksgiving.
Love,
Moosh

Backstory: I emailed my mom about getting free Starbucks and a free Krispy Kreme when you vote.

How do they know you really voted? Any way I just read that fat women have more sex than skinny women so if you’re in the mood eat a donut!  xoxo Mo
