Happy Birthday to my friend and EC neighbor Simon Cortes at La Palapa Grill & Cantina. We discovered our shared birthday after the 2018 flood. May 28th 2018, this community again stepped up to support and reopen both La Palapa and the Phoenix. We are eternally grateful for everyone of you ❤️

In 2002, I announced Ewan’s birth on the plate glass windows at the original Phoenix Emporium. Last December, he chose this place to ask Max to marry him. And this past Saturday, May 16 (also Max’s parents Natalie & Fred’s 25th and Kate & mine’s 27th anniversary), I had the honor of officiating the start of Max & Ewan’s own family at this magical place. Circle complete.

One of our servers was mortified yesterday when she accepted these “counterfeit” $20’s. She brought them to a manager after her suspicions were confirmed by another server. “They look too crisp and good to be that old”. They’re from 1988.

Dear Jacob,
Your mom still looks too crisp and good and she was circulating in 1988.
Warmest Regards,
Gen-X

Told our 17-year old hostess to press the pound and yellow buttons at the same time to reset the credit card terminal.

“What’s a pound?”
Well, apparently it’s a sign that im too old to be managing 17-year olds.
