This one could be your best yet, sir. Your intrepid reporting about the taco shortage had me in a panic until you revealed that is not true. As a Socal resident, I life without tacos is simply not worth living. I was in Orange County, probably 2nd line to Los Angeles and San Diego counties in the love of tacos. I even own an old Invader Zim shirt that has Grrr on it will little pink foil hearts with "I Love Them Little Tacos, I Love Them Good." On to the questions!

1 - This problem is the same one I face when I receive Amazon gift cards. And the answer is always to buy a prink book. I will add it to my stack of probably 100+ books I have yet to read.

2 - This one is easy. I will ex-pat to the british Isles. I have always had the feeling of being born in the wrong country. I want to send my ass back to Ireland/England/Scotland where my family heritage is from. Buy a nice plot of land out there and live out the rest of my days.

3 - Ice Cream is delicious! I just found a new one from Tillamook, which is in my freezer right now - Brownie Batter Chocolate. Best I have ever had in my life. Ribbons of brownie batter in it. I would save Chocolate, and since there are so many varieties, I am insisting on an exception to save the whole damn set of different Chocolate ice creams out there. For mankind.

4 - Can't say anything nice here, since I want to ex-pat. I'll politely say that it's OK as long as tacos are not in danger.

5 - Place in socal, a chain - "Tacos Mexico". All over socal. all the things you want is an almost grimy taqueria. All the meats that are uncommon as well to gringos (cabeza, lengua, etc). Burritos are the largest I have ever seen. Even the "mild-er" sauce is scorching hot, but it depends of the day. I don't know of one close to me in the Joshua Tree area, and I miss it. I get it as much as possible when away. https://tacosmexico.com/

Your ice cream rec is going on the list! Thank you! Your expat plan is solid, but remember to save a few bucks to import quality tacos. One question: what is a prink book?

Ahh…printed books….a thing of the past. 😂

Printed! Yes! I think there was a typo and I was like, is there some kind of book I’m not aware of?

Yes, my phone has a mind of its own. More likely, my typing sucks.

Agreed. I have never had something so perfect for chocolate ice cream. No words.

I didn’t want to share it. I was like Gollum with the ring. Not proud of that.😞

Wow! This is a helluva an endorsement.

I am always bordering on pre-diabetic, am good about the junk food. But I will admit that my resistance broke a few times - I snuck a bowl or two, but I have to share with everyone. every. single. bite. delicious.
