tortillas

i was in the office today.  yes, still working from home mostly but soon to be on a hybrid schedule.  for how long that?  i dunno.  before the pandemic i didn't think i'd dig working from home.  but i'm a late adopter to new technology.  we didn't get broadband until a few years ago at the insistence of nick.  i didn't get a smart phone until i was 50.  we didn't have streaming platforms until they were common as hell.  same goes for telework.  i didn't think it was a big deal.  until i started doing it.  but anyway, i went to one of my very favorite cheap mexican eateries, nena's.  it's been well over two years since i've eaten at nena's.  is that a sign of going back to normal?  well, the menu has changed some.  the building layout & decor have not.  luckily the tortillas have not changed.  they are still delicious made of flour & are the size of a 1970s cadillac tire.  just the kind mom used to make.  i shit you not.  my mother, a small norwegian woman learned to make tortillas when she was just newly married.  man!  they are still the best tortillas.  but nena's come a close second.  i would wear these fucking tortillas as chones they are that large & they are that good!  & i'm glad the restaurant survived the lockdowns.  what happens next?  i sure as hell hope to have a great many more of nena's tortillas.
