A Delicious New Tequila

I am a sucker for anything that has to do with a celebrity.  When I saw Aaron Paul promoting his new tequila on Instagram, I have been on the hunt to locate it.  The downside to living in Idaho is we are the last place to get cool stuff.  I had plans to purchase some in Texas but right before we left for vacation, I spotted Dos Hombres at my local liquor store.  WHAT?!?

Of course the internal debate started of do I wait until vacation, and if I love it what if I can’t find it in Idaho again?  Should I buy one now?  My husband suggested that if I purchase one now and try it, then I’ll know if it is worth getting on in Texas to share with our traveling companions.  Genius!  Thus, the bottle came home with me.

It is delicious!  The mezcal tequila is what gives margaritas a smokey taste, which is what is used in that delicious smokey peach margarita we enjoyed on our Alaksa Cruise.  I still think about that drink.

I look forward to enjoying this at home.

A Fun Find At The Home Show

We attended the Spring home show at Expo Idaho last weekend.  I love going each year and it was at the Fall home show where I was on the hunt for the permanent lighting for the house.  This time I was on the hunt for the retractable patio screen company as I am still interesting in possibly converting our covered patio into a screened in/three season patio.  I am prepared for a big price tag which always makes me not follow through.  It would be nice to have a comfortable space year round that also would have some shade and privacy.  I mean, I did also look at the hot tubs too!  But, maybe patio screens first.

One really neat item we stumped upon is a collapsible chair that will perfect for travel.

This small round disk weighs 2.5 pounds and comes with a strap or easy comfort.  The chair high is adjustable, up to 18 inches tall, and holds 400 pounds.  It can be used for step stool.  I also can use it when I need pull weeds on our landscape rock.

When we traveled to Oshkosh, Wisconsin for the EAA Air Show, we really wished he had chairs for those times we wanted to sit and watch the air demonstrations and/or take a much needed rest from all the walking.  We have since purchased some very expensive chairs that we would be able to pack in our carry-on bags and be able to carry them around an event such as that.  This is even lighter and even easier to pack so I knew we needed to purchase two.  I can’t wait to have an opportunity to use them.

Weekly WI: A Drop In The Scale - Thankfully

 Hello and Happy Tuesday!

Last week’s check-in with the scale was a doozy.  I have no idea why I had such a big spike (other than hormonal) which made me very happy to see the scale come back down.

Like I said, what a month!  

I am ending the month a little up, which is okay.  I am also down from March so that is the silver lining.  As usual, vacations and social situation always make weight loss difficult and also contributes to the ups and down.  

Speaking of vacations, I have one work shift left standing between me, sunshine, friends, food, and fun.  I am stoked!  I got a pedicure and changed out my nail wraps so I am ready to go.  Packing will commence shortly as well.  I am also trying really hard to not fall into vacation mode too early.  I am craving pizza big time!  The drop in the scale is worth staying focused and in check.  I have a corned beef cooking in the Insta Pot for dinner and leftovers for lunch tomorrow.  I love me some corned beef.

And with that, have a great day.
