Today I am here to discuss something that is rather mundane. Let’s talk about how one loads the dishwasher. Now, I just said it is mundane. However, I misspoke. For how you load the dishwasher has much meaning. First off, how you load the dishwasher can give insight […]
I will state outright that I am not a tequila fan. I can occasionally stand to drink one margarita -especially a grapefruit or passionfruit one- here and there. And, by that maybe once every eight months or so. When I lived in California, tequila was everywhere. However, my […]
