Me too.
We've been eating out a lot this week (we feel like we're running out of time, and there's lots of places left we wanted to go.) That wasn't why we went out last night. Last night we both had some mall shopping that needed doing, so we ate at a Mexican joint over in Roseville. I'll get to that in a minute.
Tuesday, D&D and I went to Pepitos in south Minneapolis. We've been there before, but I guess I didn't know that's what it was called, because when we got there I was all, "hey, we've totally been here before!"
I think Derek suspects I have some sort of memory dysfunction.
D&D talked about bikes for a while. I was very bored for that part.
Pepitos has a Foursquare special for a free beer or house margarita with check-in on Monday or Tuesday. We were excited for free drinks. The waitress was all, "wtf?" Apparently not everyone uses Foursquare. But her manager knew all about it, so crisis averted.
I got fried tacos, one chicken and one beef, with a side of refried beans and caesar salad.
The tacos were huge! Kind of hard to eat, but pretty tasty. They put what I think they call "taco relish" on them, which seemed to me to be diced pickle. It was a nice surprise. I'll be remembering that and adding it to my Regular Kind tacos in the future.
Hey, I just realized that I didn't make original recipe Regular Kind tacos the whole month. There was maybe something close to Regular Kind once, but I don't think I ever used a packet of Ortega Taco Seasoning. Huh. Fancy that.
Like I said, we went to Rosedale Mall on Wednesday night for a little shopping. Both of us needed pants. Pants shopping, ugh.
After pants shopping (ugh) we drove over to La Casita. It's behind where like Good Earth is. It's a definite 'Carlos O'Kellys' feel, but our server, Denise, was very nice and I was pleasantly suprised by my tacos.
If you've ever thought, "you know what this taco needs? Bacon bits." then go here and order the Baja Tacos. Beef, bacon bits, cilantro, avocado sauce. The bacon bits made it special.
Derek liked his fish tacos, too. He also commented that 30 Days of Tacos is really feeding into his chips and salsa addiction. Some time we'll have to do a salsa taste-test. I suspect French Meadow will win, but you never know.
Last night at dinner, Derek suggested that we should have had cards made with this website on them to leave at restaurants and stuff. Sad that he thought of it on day 27. Maybe next year. sadface.
Bob asked me to talk more about Portal 2. While we haven't played it in a few days, I do have a thought I'd like to share.
The games puzzles are such that after you complete a level, you feel like THE KING OF MENSA. Then the next level might be so hard that you have to get mad and consult the internet. You'd think this'd make you feel dumb again. It doesn't. Instead, it makes you feel like the game is so smart and awesome that it stumped THE KING OF MENSA.
Plus, you kinda leave feeling like you've just learned something about space or physics or whatever.
Or like you just pushed dimentia a month further away.
The Harry Potter and the Dealthly Hallows part 2 trailer was released. Feel free to pee your pants while you watch:
As aways, I have to leave you now so I can get ready to go work out. Have a nice day!!
