Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Four – Green

Her: Mojito Him: Caipirinha (which I believe would be as popular as the mojito if it had a more easily pronounceable name!  Also, mine should be greener as I’ve had them with a lot more limes.)

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Three – Yellow

Her: Pineapple Mojito Him: Pineapple Mojito (They’re really good!)

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day Two – Orange

Him = Bay Breeze Her = Mai Tai (And I think it was the lighting or the cups or maybe even my shirt absorbing all the orange in the room. But you’ll have to trust me that these drinks were more orange than yellow – honest!)  

Mexico Rainbow Challenge – Day One – Red

Our last Mexican vacation was in late Feb/early March of 2020 just as Covid was breaking worldwide.  I spent much of our week taking pictures of Corona beer cans thinking I was clever…

Agribition Supervision

With my criminal record check approved, I was off to be a parent chaperone for Sasha’s class visit to Agribition today. (Good thing it was approved as I had a few moments of “Oh-oh – that’ll get you on a list!” during the day – from accidentally leaving the house with my fly down to […]

Saturday Snap – “Meals That Make Your Mouth Dance”

We don’t consider ourselves “foodies” per se but Shea and I often talk about the restaurant meals we’ve had that “made our mouths dance”. This rarity happens when we find a combination of unique flavours from fresh ingredients created by great chefs.  (Side note: highly recommend “The Bear” if you haven’t seen it.) A Korean […]
