Mexicantown

After a hard morning of tromping through and around abandoned buildings in 5 degree weather Sunday we decided we needed some good old-fashioned Mexican food to warm us up. So we went to Mexicantown in Southwest Detroit and treated ourselves to Evie's Tamales and Lupita's Tacos.

Dorothy, we're not at Taco Bell anymore.

Gidget

Farewell Gidget, you tiny furry TV star, best known to millions of adoring fans as the Taco Bell Dog.

After the commercials ended Gidget suffered the same fate of many great actors, she was typecast, only able to get movie roles expressly written for Chihuahuas (Legally Blonde 2, Beverly Hills Chihuahua, etc..)

But we will all remember her for the role that made her a star, and made us hungry.

Gidget died of a stroke yesterday at the ripe old age of 15.

Nothing Rockos Like Tacos
