When you last visited Mexico, you may have sampled at least one Corona. Locals, however, know the best way to experience this culture is by having Three Coronas.

I found the back cover of our TV remote chewed all to hell by the dog. I can’t find the part with the buttons and the batteries. 💀

No YOU spent 15 dollars on couple of vanilla beans for a batch of mead that probably won’t even be that good anyway

Seeing more and more GDPR-like prompts where the only option is “Accept all Cookies”. Why bother? This isn’t compliant and is annoying to have to “choose” the only option.

The site has some wild copy for their description. The most mumbly-jumbly sales speak I have seen in a while, and I've worked sales.
A screenshot of the whiskey glass description on its sales site, which reads "Circumventing the ornamentation of cut crystal, the entire surface of the tumbler, inside and out, is born in a single blinding moment of machine-pressing the molten non-leaded crystal into a complex five-part mold. The result is a pure expression of material and form that elevates the traditional lowball glass to new heights, with geometric facets and edges blending organically into curved surfaces that fascinate the eyes and play with the sense of touch."

Meta has been hard pitching me this fancy whiskey glass on their platforms. Out of curiosity. I checked it out at their site - it's $50 USD for one glass. One glass!

The funny thing about this is Meta also targets me with ads like this. Do I need to post more stuff about hockey and poutine to help ‘em out?

Living in Mexico means you can get food at places like this and it's the best thing you've ever eaten.

I like to keep up with popular sports even though I don’t really enjoy them. It’s important so I can still partake in conversations with friends and fit in. If you struggle with this too, here’s a query I used today to get the most relevant news. Hopefully it helps someone else out there.

Meet Maya. We picked up this puppy to foster. Her and her siblings were abandoned at a gas station. We’re flying to Toronto in about 7 weeks for the Eclipse and our hope is to find a permanent home for her there. If you’re in the GTA and want a cute Mexican puppy, let me know!

Doing ok in Manzanillo. Get away from the tourist traps, head to where the locals live, and get some real food. Great advice for any travel.

When we buy tortillas from the local Tortillería we can never get through them all before they get dry. So we bought an air fryer and are frying the leftovers for nachos! Here are some with a lentil taco filling, manchego and chihuahua cheese, with avocado salsa

So, Campeche is a gorgeous little gem of a town. If you’d like to visit somewhere in Mexico that isn’t just a tourism death spiral this should go on your list!
