See, this is what the internet was made for.

Enjoying this brief moment in time when the entire city of Austin smells like mountain laurel.

Before Chips and Salsa, There Was Another Complimentary Tex-Mex Appetizer Many fondly remember the dish as a staple of growing up in Texas. There are still a few places that still serve it.

A nearly forgotten piece of Tex-Mex history revived. www.texasmonthly.com/food/what-ha...

I remember a place that used to do this when I was a kid. Even now, I like to put an H-E-B flour tortilla in the toaster, get it nice and puffy and then slather it in butter. Soooo good.

Back in the 90s I took a Womens Studies class at A&M. It was a great class. I was never a dyed in the wool Aggie but I got a solid education there. Lots of great profs, a few duds. What a shame.

Reviews of New Food: LesserEvil Watermelon Hibiscus Popcorn The time? High summer. The place? Binghamton, New York. My husband and I were there for a two-week stint, and though we weren’t native to the place...

"At first huff, its contents smelled like Fruity Pebbles. The kernels were speckled with brown dots, which I knew from the ingredient list were motes of 'watermelon hibiscus seasoning.' It looked like popcorn that had come down with the measles."

Good to hear!

How are you finding Bsky? I seem to be followed almost exclusively by a giant army of bots

Opinion | Trump’s reckless announcement linking Tylenol and autism is already doing major damage Touting a possible cure with little evidence only gives loved ones of autistic people false hope.

It is hard to put into words how this past week basically erased a decade’s worth of work to promote of acceptance of #ActuallyAutistic people and accommodate autism. But somehow Trump did more to promote fear and lies around autism than any other president.
