My
niece has been doing Taco Tuesdays for years in Rhode Island and North
Carolina, and I often think of her when I see a crispy taco. I can’t say why it
didn’t occur to me to have a standing Taco Tuesday in Texas. Who doesn’t have
tortillas in their home stock around here? They keep forever. There are so many
options, if you can get around the corn or flour thing. My husband likes flour
only and I’d pick the corn based on health alone. When I do flour, I crave them
fried up a little so that adds even more calories.
But
for insides, there’s beans and rice and peppers and cheese and varieties within
those varieties.
Turns
out we had another debate the first time I announced the Castillos would be
indulging in Taco Tuesday on a regular basis. I rolled out fish tacos and Mr.
Castillo proclaimed a fish does not make a real taco.
Really?
Immediately I texted the niece.
She
took my side.
Fish
will remain in the rotation.
Shrewd Keto
When you puff something
and it crunches and the calorie count is conceivable, you feel pretty smart.
“The Smartest Way to Keto” is actually how Shrewd Keto markets such 90-calorie
packets of balls that keep in the flavor of much more junkier food. But in this
case, Baked Cheddar, Brick Oven Pizza, and Nacho Cheese Protein Puffs will
leave you with crunch, 2 grams of carbs and 14 grams of protein. You doing
this? Then your later reward can be Shrewd Keto Dippers in both dark and
milk chocolate. It’s snack, dessert and a shot of protein as well. I love
crunching my chocolate. Shrewdfood.com will get through crunch time.
A
Couple of Outlaws
Did
you ever have a crush on the couple who makes your soaps? I want to hang out
with Russ and Danielle Vincent, who pose with guitars and cooking utensils,
wear funky glasses and make cowboy boots look a little punk. They live in the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. I bet you thought I was gonna say Austin, because they
are keeping it weird. They actually do have ties to Austin and have noted the
city’s favorite scent of their line is The Mountain Hideout. Their soaps come
in packaging both masculine and humorous, with hidden John Wayne quotes. The
products are very fine and have components such as whiskey and leather and
sage. I feel as though their soaps, handwashes and colognes will just naturally
make you feel better from seeing them online at LiveOutlaw.com and holding them
in your hand once they arrive and that’s all before you put them on your body.
Their giant campfire mug has the call to “Wake up. Kick Ass. Repeat.” You can
even get a car scent that shows you are living Outlaw. Hey Russ and Danielle,
call me!
