We're having our tacos with Bass tonight, decidedly un-Mexican but good nevertheless. We stand by our previous baseless assertion that it's a little early in the season for tequila, but today, it's entirely appropriate. Should you find yourself passing the evening with a few margaritas, just chalk it up to an interest in nineteenth century Mexican history.

Taco de Mayo
Today is Cinco de Mayo, which, Marketplace reminded us earlier this evening, has something to do with Mexico beating the French army in 1862. Like Mardi Gras and St. Patrick's Day, Cinco de Mayo's primary significance in mainstream American culture is that it is an excuse to eat and drink. Around the B&B editorial offices, we need no such excuses, and today, as we do at least once every week, we paid a visit to our local taco truck, a veritable landmark (if a mobile one) of our area.

I'm just wondering where Woodford Reserve fits in here. I mean that without it I wouldn't have been able to celebrate Cinco de Mayo as I did tonight by sitting through the entirety of Heat.
Trick question: Woodford Reserve fits in everywhere.
