Interesting fact: Each year Taco Bell sells a lot of food. In fact, they sell 2 billion tacos each year. They also sell 1 billion burritos each year. What is their key to success? Just look at their menu. Not only is their food tasty, but it's extremely affordable as well.

I'm back..I know you have missed me. I have another great story to tell you. Yesterday, my friend Lusia and I took her daughter and Liza to see the Jonas brothers concert in atlanta. We had a great time. The show was unbelievable. Those kids can perform.

I met Luisa in I think 1984. We attended Florida Atlantic University In Boca Raton Florida. I used to drag Luisa out of the dorm at 1:30, 2:00 in the morning to go and get Cigarettes. There was this convience story on the corner run by some guy named Hauk. Hauk used to love when I came into the store and would try and talk to me...Luisa would say, "come on get your stuff so we can go." Hauk would tell her, in his Pakistanian accent, "You can have anything in the store, just let me talk to her." Luisa would say to him, "do you know who you are talking too?" You see Luisa and I have struggled with losing weight all our lives, and the opportunity to shop for free was a phat college chics dream come true, it was better than hitting the lottery.

Anyway, Luisa's theory is you can't be a real woman unless you weigh 200 pounds. (If that is the case I am one hell of a real woman.)

On our way back from the concert we were hungry. We left for the concert at 4:45, none of us had eaten. The stuff they sold at the concert was not dinner food. By 11:30 we were starving. We decided to pull into Taco Bell. They are open late, the lights are on....Well, we pulled up to the door, and one of the taco bell staff was taking out the trash. When he saw us he got that "deer in the head light" look. (Again with those damn deer, there is no escaping them) When we got out of the car, he motion to us that they were closed and we would have to use the drive thru...Luisa immediately said, "He took one look at us and thought to himself...we don't have enough food for that group."

So much for being open late, especially on a Sat. night. Next time you are in Conyers at 11:30, your hungry, remember that the taco bell drive in is open..
and BTW...it's not easy eating tacos in a car, especially the crunchy ones.

  1. I just found your blog and it is cracking me up!! I'm from GA, actually the Conyers/Covington area, but I've never had a problem with the Taco Bell not being open. Of course we used to hit up the Waffle House instead. What a fun blog!
