Was close to freezing last night. I saw the blood moon and it was big when it first came up.

Yesterday at work I was talking to some Mexican people I know about my super cute baby Rio, (gushing like a new moma) and I said I heard that they have wild Chiwawa dogs running all over down there, and how I would love to rescue those super cute puppies.... then the Mexican guy said they raise them down there and eat them!!! I was terrified at just the thought for my sweet baby Rio! How extra horrible is that! 'No wonder Donald Trump wants to deport them!

I never thought that on this side of the world there would be people still eating dogs in Mexico. Apparently it is still legal to eat dogs, but not to serve them in a restaurant... but that still never stopped Mexican restaurants from serving them! Seems to be a common every day occurrence. This new article reports 6 restaurants in Tijuana were shut down this year alone for serving dog meat!

for the record, I still like Mexican people and have lots of Mexican friends here in Canada.... I just don't like the ones who still eat dog meat in this day and age!

I however have since crossed off Mexico as a dream vacation place in the future....

Time to get working in the greenhouse now. Going to work in there for a couple hours and move some tender succulents inside tonight. Last night there there reports of frost on some windows of vehicles.
