Mexican food in Europe is WILD. Not a jalapeño in sight at the grocery stores. My husband is half Mexican, and we are always hesitant to try European “Mexican” food, but one time we stopped in at this small restaurant called Fajitas down the street from our favorite hotel in Paris. We used to joke walking past it, assuming it would be TERRIBLE. Turns out it’s owned by a Mexican immigrant and his American wife. The food is really good, and authentic (although different from Tex-Mex, and certainly catered to a French crowd). Now we go at least once on most of our Paris trips. We chat with the owners for hours sometimes, which is always funny because he speaks French and Spanish, his wife and I speak English and French, and my husband speaks English and some Spanish. It always ends up being a round robin of languages 😂 Photos are of Fajitas restaurant and the “Mexican” food section at a Monoprix:

I need the working-class men of England to stand up. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿✝️✝️✝️ Yes, I’m talking directly to the scaffolders, the builders, the plumbers, the bricklayers, the mechanics, the roofers, the sparkies (electricians), the carpenters, the joiners, the groundworkers, the plant operators, the lorry drivers, the steel fixers, the tilers, the decorators, the engineers, the fitters, the gas men, the heating installers, the window fitters, the landscapers, the drainage lads, the forklift drivers, and every single man who builds and keeps this country running. I’m also talking to the scaffolding bosses, the brick firm owners, the site managers, the contractors, and the trades bosses who know exactly how powerful your lads are when they stand shoulder to shoulder. England needs you now. We will convince your employers to pay you a day’s wage, because this is bigger than just a job. It’s about standing up for your country, your families, and your future. No women. No children. Just the men of England and Britain, showing yourselves in the biggest way this country has ever seen. Stand tall. Stand proud. England is calling. DATE TBC
