I’ve had an awful time so far this week all because I went to a well-known fish restaurant on Sunday. It is rumored that Shakira went through something similar in Peru after eating ceviche, so I suppose after 10 years here I should be used to it.

I’m not pumped about having to take antibiotics again though. Any tips that have helped y’all when you’ve got type 7? 💩

Im traveling to visit my parents next month for a few weeks, unfortunately home for them is Texas. It’s been three years and I’m not exactly thrilled to go back (only happy to see them & my sibling).

I’m stuck between having a list of things we need to bring back (ie: can’t buy abroad/cheaply), wanting to eat international food that can’t be found here, and really really really not wanting to support the government. I know it’s a drop in the bucket, but everything sounds so… expensive and destructive.

Nestlé is offloading the remainder of its ice cream assets as the world’s largest food company takes a larger review of its businesses in an aggressive push to turn around sales.

The CPG’s ice cream business outside the U.S. will be sold to Froneri “in a phased way,” Nestlé CEO Philipp Navratil said during an earnings call Thursday. Froneri, a joint venture created by the Swiss company and PAI Partners, acquired Nestlé’s U.S. ice cream business for $4 billion in 2019. Navratil said its remaining ice cream holdings are “strong but small,” adding that the segment is “a distraction for us” as the company chases larger growth opportunities.

I have 8, some are pretty big pieces, and it’s been a while. I’m not sure if I would get more.

If you were to get tattooed what would it be and where?

Peru again is without a president. It’s been 7 presidents in 10 years, soon to be 9 (one temporary replacement and one election in April).

What would be different if there was no principal leader where you live? Would anything change?

It’s an ongoing debate I have with one of my students. He says English/language teachers specifically will have a hard time finding work in about 2-5 years. I disagree, especially for students who want a more conversational approach and can afford the classes.

What do y’all think?

I used to enjoy the label in school of being “weird”, but after many years of conformity it’s hard to remember what those things were.

What makes you weird/unique? Characteristics, hobbies, connections, etc I want to know!

I love this comic and it’s a reoccurring conversation. What has worked for y’all for sharing tasks, specifically at home?

I’m trying to decide between a trip to Colombia or Argentina for next year. Where would y’all like to travel if you could?

For me it’s cats 100% they are low maintenance and each of them have their own personality and they’ve been largely unchanged (ie further domesticated) for at least thousands of years. I just think they’re neat! 🐈

As we have almost made it to Friday once again, what helps recover from the workweek?

Everything just takes so much energy, work and time! Then it’s Monday again!
