Get excited for this new episode! First, our family cookbook, OAXACA: Home Cooking From the Heart of Mexico, is out today! (Get it on Amazon now - bit.ly/OaxacaCookbook) We’re celebrating by talking to our friend of over a decade and co-writer of the book, Javier Cabral. The Glutster has been writing about food since he was 16 years old and now he’s the editor of LA TACO. We talk about how his obsession with food began and how he took something negative in his life and turned it into a lifelong career. We also discuss the year long process of writing the Oaxaca Cookbook, and the respect he has for all the women in his life. This episode will make you laugh hard, your heart swoon, and your stomach hungry!

Pick or Tip of the Week

The Lopez-Velasquez birthdays have finally finished, but Paulina is sharing a great party hack that you’ll love. Since her daughters’ birthdays are back to back to back, she decided not to throw any birthday parties this year. Instead, she bought balloons by the dozen at Target, different character balloons for each of the girls (like unicorns!) and golden number balloons for their age. Paulina also bought a small helium tank, which was her only investment for birthdays this year. It looked like a big party for the girls for a small price!

Bricia is really trying to keep up with her no shopping vow, so she’s turning her pick of the week into “things she would have bought but didn't.” 😂 Her friend, Martha, is so stylish and wore a beautiful knitted, unstructured coat during their trip to Nashville two weeks ago. If you’re on the hunt for a nice fall coat, go to Macys.com and search for “Mango coat.”
