Isn't that these guys: (screenshots)

Also I (and one other) went to the new #Amoré in #FortWayneIN and had a time.

I already knew going in that it was going to be a "quality over quantity" deal. So I ordered a bunch.

But gosh, as delightfully tasty as all of the items were, maybe I'll save this place for special occasions only

Hello.

Thanks for following me. I'm going through my new followers so that I can block, and maybe report, all of the obvious foreign government catfishers (and other serial misinformers) so I don't have to deal with their poisonous manipulations.

What is your opinion of this:

Just got done skimming through a very boring economic report, which I barely understood, regarding the consequences of the tariffs from 2018.
