Terrific Burritos


Try Taqueria Mar y Tierra located at 1475 Broadway in Redwood City. tel 650-369-2201

We did a craft show in this mall about 10 years ago and our booth was located directly in front of this Mexican Restaurant. It was raining and we didn't to go far for food. So, we tried a couple of their Super Burritos and they were indeed SUPER. Best burritos I have ever had.

Read the reviews on Yelp about this place: http://www.yelp.com/biz/mar-y-tierra-taqueria-redwood-city

We have been stopping by there many times over the years. Around lunchtime and dinnertime, this place is totally packed. Matter of fact, I went in there two weeks ago and every chair and table was taken. I passed by the Chinese Food Restaurant next door to it and there was absolutely nobody in side there. They had opened quite recently.

Showers coming!!!!

Just checked the weather reports for this weekend.... San Jose (DeAnza where we will be in S-23) SHOWERS; Cambria (where we will not be) SHOWERS, SHOWERS, SHOWERS, TEMP 61; Orinda (Holiday Bazaar-where we definitely will not be) SHOWERS, SHOWERS, SHOWERS. TEMP 65. Last year we had great weather there and nobody buying, people definitely not coming. This is what happened last year. Orinda Holiday Bazaar 2007

A number of years ago we did a Rock and Mineral Show in Vallejo during the month of March. The first time we did it the weather was very poor with showers, showers, showers and unbelievingly, we did good because the ugliness outside drove people indoors. When we did it the following year, we had high hopes and brought even more things to sell. However, the weather was absolutely beautiful with temps in the 70's and we did very poor...we had an $8 day on Saturday and everybody else did quite bad too. People just went elsewhere because the weather was great. With ugly rainy, windy weather, the people were more or less, grounded and did not venture out very far and went to events indoors.

I've made some entries in the website. Check out NEWS









Wall Streeters Can Still Expect Big Bonuses

When the government agreed to bail out Wall Street, the goal was to provide funds to shore up banks' capital bases so they would start lending again. It wasn't to help them fund the bonus pool. But estimates run that as much as $70 billion will get paid out in bonuses to Wall Streeters this year. That amount equals 10% of the $700 billion bailout.

ISN'T THAT DISGUSTING!!!!
