Trudy's right, Taco Bell is a godsend for veggies on the road. Although a few times I've had the unwelcome surprise of meat on a "vegetarian taco".

We do have a lot of the Mexicans here.

Yup, that's what I learned after I expressed my astonishment at how fantastic the food was. It's a little hole in the wall with the best damned shrimp I've ever tasted.

When Steve gave me his old grill this summer, grilled fish tacos became a once-a-week staple. So damned good. And relatively healthy. We're grilling fish tonight, too; maybe I should go buy some cabbage and tortillas...hmmmm.

The weirdest fact I ever learned was that the Taco Bell in the middle of the Mission is actually the busiest Taco Bell in the world. Ironic?

I think it's like sushi - if you don't develop a taste by the time you graduate from college, it's too late for you (by which I mean me).

Really? Because it's mostly just grilled meat and rice and beans. That seems so basic to me. Surely salsa (pico de gallo) and guacamole aren't exotic anymore.

It's not a whole new palate experience of raw cod roe and wasabi.

The Fake AP Stylebook is my new favorite thing.

It's pretty awesome. Besides I knew the "Oxford comma" was a prank. I'm surprised so many of you fell for it. Noobs.

I don't find Mexican exotic - just not very interesting. Maybe I haven't had the right Mexican. (I LOVE guacamole. I'd probably eat sashimi if it was smothered in guac. But that's just avocado-love.)

GOAT TACO!!! I've never had that. I want it.

I now suddenly want roti too--like we name it in Jamaica. I think roti in Trinidad is just the bread. In Jamaica we mean the meat it wraps too. Meat wrapped in breadlike products is the nom.

I adore Mexican food. One day I'd like to eat it in Mexico. I live shamefully close now. It's a matter of time and coordination.

The Trinidadian restaurant downstairs from me does roti. I could have goat roti and a double-double for dinner. (I don't know if the double-double is an actual thing or something this woman made up - it's like a littl roti sandwich with chickpeas and tamarind in the middle. I ate so many of those when I was home with Dylan on maternity leave.)

That sounds made-up but good. I mean, unless it's just chole, but it seems like it's not.

I just have to share that I am currently sitting on a folding chair, with both a cat and a laptop on my lap. This cannot last. God willing, I'm getting a sofa this weekend. Do non-Ikea furniture stores let you walk out the door with a sofa right then?

Luckily, after this discussion, KBD cooked up some yummy chicken fajita thingies. ::burp::

Now, NCIS and then Castle.
