Mercado review. Mexican Brunch in Los Angeles
We decided to meet up with some friends for brunch, the place was Mercado, a newish Mexican restaurant. They have a few locations but we went to the Mercado on West 3rd street. I should start with the bad first as I do with most of my reviews. The only negatives I found were really…

Vlog 16 – Sriracha Mango Yogurt by Chobani Video and Review
Did you watch the Vlog about Taste of Huntington Beach? Well, just before I close the end of that vlog I stopped by the Chobani booth. Turns out they were sponsoring the event, that’s why they had such a nice booth. While I was there, they gave me some samples and so I decided to…

Found Coconuts at a Bargain, and I Open Coconuts Easily With This.
Found coconuts at the store for $1.49, and that’s a bargain. To open them I use my Coco Jack… Update, I no longer endorse the Coco Jack, mostly because they broke a deal we had and never paid me the remainder of the money they owed me. It also seems like the company wasn’t in…
