Out And About

20 Jun

While our state of Quintana Roo in southern Mexico is at code orange for Covid risk, with red being the worst, we are all vaccinated and willing to venture out to try a new restaurant.

Mojito

New hotels and restaurants are popping up daily on every corner. We don’t eat out much, but I felt like the adventures of Dos Tortas needed a kick in the tuchus. So when a friend recommended Barbanegra Bacalar (Black Beard), a downtown eatery with vegan options, I said, why not. We can certainly use an excuse to take a shower and put on clean clothes.

My mother-in-law Alice is always happy to get out of the house.

I am bad about remembering to take pictures of our food. In this case, the service was so slow, we were lucky to be the only people eating. I had a cauliflower ceviche which was creative and I will make at home. Lisa and Alice were pleased with their selections. Mission accomplished.

Eating out supports the economy and gets us out of the house. Sometimes it’s the diversion that we all need.

    Are you having trouble with the blog but I’m glad you got the chance to get out. Isn’t it delightful? And for some reason, this appeared in my reader today. Hooray!

        I dictate, and I need to remember to check before I hit send or post. What I actually said was “I’m sorry you are having trouble” and you can see what dictation chose to write.

    It’s good to get out and about, especially now. It’s been a long time coming 🙂
