No more

Moving down the road to WordPress.
I'm leaving this here because of the import/export problems with pictures: WordPress accepts transfer of words from other blogs, but they have trouble with images. A little kinky there, but accessable.

This is where I'll be:

I really miss my imported templates, Blogger.

Mexican Restaurant

The Rodeo is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. I am not saying that the food is fabulous; it is good, though, in a sort of homestyle way. Family-owned. Nice people. The way Nashville has changed in that way alone in the last few years still astounds me. When I finished college, there were no Mexican restaurants around, and if there were any Latin people here, they were cloistered away safely at Vanderbilt or Peabody, or maybe Scarritt. My high school Spanish teacher had learned in...Spain.

There was one boy in my third year class who invited us to his home for dinner; his parents had been missioneries in Cuba. I remember we had arroz con pollo, which was very exotic for me. thank god it was chicken and not paella.

Didn't have the restaurant experience until I moved to St Petersburg. So cosmopolitan. Besides an enormous 24/7 deli, they had greek, italian, chinese, and...Taco Bell. Cheaper than the coney island hot dog behind the liquor store and much safer. It's funny, there was another chain Mexican restaurant just across the street from Taco Bell, Taco Tico, but we never went there. No idea why.
