Last month I created a mini- Radio Novela called “The Bold & The Beautiful Cry Too.” After a Bold Chief of Police arrests a Beautiful, Mysterious Woman for a Murder she committed right in front of him, you will wonder who running this Interrogation... The B&B was originally part Small Fish Radio’s podcast, “The Approximately Five Minute Shelter In Place Show!” Thank you to the show!! They have their own podcast on Apple, where you can also find “My Mexican Mistakes!”

No, they are not a new folk group! They are the three men/dogs in my dog Shyla’s life! She continues to be more popular here than I am, but I don’t care, because between the two of us, I’m the one that can buy Valium without a prescription.

The adventure continues as my dog Shyla and I decide to ride out the Coronavirus here in Vallarta!! And what’s the story with The Mystery Of The Missing Canadians??

It’s a new town (Puerto Vallarta), with a new dog (“Shyla”), and a new challenge crossing the big street that I need to cross to get anywhere. And a month in Sayulita did not improve my Spanish, but I do sound more like Bob & Doug McKenzie from “The Great White North” than I used to...

If you know the movie “Baby Boom,” you’ll know what happens when I’m adopted by a street dog in Sayulita!!

Join me in Sayulita, on the Riviera Nayarit, where I am learning that I may not be a beach town person, and that I definitely need to learn more about animals.

As my days in Mexico City wind down, I become very nostalgic for the gigantic streets that are impossible to cross, the tiny sidewalks and miniature toilets, and everything I love here! And I read the revised Introduction to my book “La Gringa Novelera: Prosecutor By Day, Novelera By Night!”

A quick visit back home, a warm welcome back to Mexico City, Christmas plans in my adopted city, and my (newly-published) story about growing up with 13 Televisions! FELIZ NAVIDAD!!

Mexico City has created a monster! Since moving here only five months ago I have grown SUPER-accustomed to the kindness and generosity of the strangers who help me every day here! Plus, I finally figure out how to hard-boil eggs.

For my birthday in my adopted home, nothing is more delicious, or makes me appear more pathetic, than my desire for a cheeseburger with extra pickles and unlimited ketchup.
