Consider your Tuesday plans officially handled. 🌮🍹⁠
⁠
Taco Tuesday at @puretaco is kind of a no-brainer: buy 3 tacos, get 1 free ... all day long!⁠
⁠
And because tacos deserve a few friends at the table, there are $5 loaded nachos, $9 margs, $6 beers, free chips + salsa with any purchase, and buy one burrito, get the second half off.⁠
⁠
The hardest decision? Which taco is getting that fourth spot. 👀🌮 by @cbadmag

If there’s one thing that pairs beautifully with a plate of authentic Italian pasta, it’s a really good glass of wine.⁠
⁠
At @2051cucinaitaliana, wine is part of the experience - poured, shared, and enjoyed around the table just as it should be. Add homemade Italian flavors and that warm, family-style hospitality, and suddenly one glass turns into “should we order another bottle?” 🍝🍷⁠

Locals Summer tastes a little better with pasta on the table and a glass of wine in hand. 🍝🍷☀️⁠

Carlsbad came together to honor Vanessa - a life so deeply loved and taken far too soon. 🤍

In the midst of unimaginable heartbreak, our community showed up to surround her family and loved ones with light, love, and support.

This is what community looks like. Carlsbad, thank you for showing up.

Sending all the love to the Wheyland family 🤍 @vanessamichelson
