When blending drinks in your blender always add your ice at the end so it doesn't jam up the blender. Also if you've got alcohol in your house and you desire an alcoholic drink just mix your own booze into the beverages.
And today I've included a large container of Beachy Trail Mix in everyone’s Box. We can’t take a trip to the beach right now, but I can bring the beach vacation to you. This Trail Mix is a combination pf macadamia nuts, white chocolate chips, dried pineapple, and coconut flakes. Tasty! :)
I hope y'all enjoy today's Sunday Surprise Snack and Beverages Texans. Yeehaw! :)
Thanks Big Tex Dude. My Dad's still recovering in hospital but we hope he’ll be well enough to be discharged from hospital to return home soon.
Welcome back to Texas Dude!

Hi
Seriously? She had an engine crap out in flight, leaving her with one perfectly good running engine. Her airplane and all her passengers landed safely. Not even so much as a bug splat on the windshield. Now she want three quarters of a million from her airline for pain, suffering, and PTSD.
By my math someone owes me $2.34 million. I want my lawyer on the phone, right now. I'll be ordering my new Ferrari while I wait.

If it's a free ride, show up at the door with your bags in hand.
Sure, I'll get right on that. Uncle Sam's probably sending me to Tulsa next month for a week but that's probably as close as I'll get to TX for a while.

Happy Cinco de Mayo Texas! For those who are unaware of the significance of May 5th in Mexican history, it was the day the Mexicans beat the French army at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. This was significant because the Mexicans had been granted independence from Spain in 1821 but Napoleon was trying to invade Mexico and put one of his relatives in as ruler of Mexico. It was a glorious victory for Mexico. We will be zipping out, via drone, Grilled Beef, Chicken, Shrimp & Portobello Fajitas all day & night! No Mariachis this year, but an inflatable sombrero will be included in every delivery as well as a complimentary shot of Patron! So, have some tacos, throw back some shots and hold on to your maracas and Party! ¡Arriba!

Hi guys im the same person as patriotism with birds.
Greetings from XKI! We're proud to present a special announcement regarding Chief Executive Markanite's resignation from his position, and his selection of Hakketomat as his successor. To view the full announcement, please follow the link below.
On Monday, April 3rd 2021, Chief Executive Markanite of 10000 Islands announced his decision to resign from his position, and pass the torch to Hakketomat. Hakketomat is a well-known figure in the region, having served as Executive Officer in TITO, Senior Senator, and Registrar-General, among other positions. Although we are sad to see Markanite go, he has made an excellent choice for his successor and XKI is excited to welcome Hakketomat into the position of Chief Executive.
The following is the statement of resignation and conferral from Markanite:
2. The Chief Executive authority of 10000 Islands shall be vested in the Founder Nation, the United States of Grub. The Chief Executive shall hold Office for life, and shall be responsible for the conferral of the Chief Executive's authority to a successor of the Chief Executive's sole choosing.
So, as per Article 2 of the XKI Constitution, I am naming Hakketomat to be the next Chief Executive of the 10000 Islands. The transition will begin today with this announcement and I will work with to bring them up to speed on all the duties of the Chief Executive over the next few weeks. I will update everyone upon completion of the transition.
The first thing we will work on is administering the elections which begin tomorrow as normal.
I'd like to thank you all for your support, help and guidance whilst I navigated the challenges of the role. I hope that I have done you all proud. Being Chief Executive is not easy, and I know I've made some mistakes however I also hope I've done some good and helped the region. 10000 Islands has an extensive and amazing history, we have endured the test of time and will continue to thrive under the new Chief Executive.
I look forward to watching how the region evolves over the next few months and years. It has been an honour and a privilege. Thank you all.
Long live the 10000 Islands! Long live TITO! Long live Hakketomat!
As the transition process begins we wish Hakketomat the best of luck and express the deepest gratitude to Markanite for his dedication and service to the region.
is this frisbeetarias region?
Am i doing good?

10000 Islands' finest creative minds were at work this month, bringing along discussions on many wacky topics with them.
~ The disappearing property of lasagna
~ A stranger's last day
~ Organ donations on the rise
~ Fleebdorse the defleeblegate
This month, your update staff has ventured down to newly appointed Chief Executive Hakketomat's lair to ask him a few questions.
Porflox: Let's start off with how you discovered XKI. Was there a particular reason you decided to come here?
Hakke: I discovered XKI when I received a recruitment telegram. Can't say from whom, since it's disputed. Aersoldorf is very certain that he sent me one while I'm certain I got it from Cerb. I liked the telegram from XKI the best, although that's also a foggy reason since I don't really know what exactly made me choose XKI. I think I took a look at the region and its size. The mentioning of TITO also interested me. But then, I wasn't too interested in joining TITO when I first arrived
Porflox: What prompted you to start getting more active in regional affairs then?
Hakke: A change came about when non-TITO citizens of XKI were asked to take part in the Lazarus mission of 2015. I joined in and I've mainly kept to TITO until Dominion of Compassion asked me to become his deputy senator. This was a few months prior to my first successful senator running in January 2017. Markanite interested me in joining The Islands Party and helped me run for a seat on the Co9.
Porflox: How many years have you been in XKI, and is there someone in particular who helped you through your time?
Hakke: I've been in XKI for as long as I've been on NS, a bit more than 6 years. At first when I joined the forum, Ardreas was assigned as a buddy to me so he introduced me about here and there. The forum seemed overwhelming, but once I inserted myself into the culture of Taco Island I built a friendship with Aersoldorf. Aersoldorf is perhaps one of my closest friends in XKI along with Markanite and Woonsocket. Mark got me fully introduced to the political system. I worked closely with Woon when he was CE. While Aersoldorf has been close to me, I can't forget Ater Nox either. He has also helped me in getting settled in Taco Island.
That is just the civilian side of my time in XKI. In TITO, it has always been Kanta Hame who has been central. He is the first one I met when I attended update for the first time. He also was appointed Tactical Officer shortly afterwards and so, he would lead me into missions. During my time in TITO, I started eyeing up the Executive Officer position which was held by Louisistan as well as Barry. When I was appointed Executive Officer, I of course sought Louisistan's input whenever I needed some advice. Louis was my inspiration for that role. Since then, TITO Command has been the pillar of my existence in XKI and TITO. So yeah, I can't say that I have anyone in particular.
Porflox: Now that you've been appointed CE, what are some things you want to get done?
Hakke: My goals for XKI is to have silver cities and statues built in my honour! All school students will do the pledge of allegiance to both XKI and me every morning! XKI will also become a vampire haven!
Porflox:Well on that note, thanks for the interview! I'm sure XKI will flourish under your silver and vampiric oversight.
Hakke: You are very welcome!
– Porflox
A belated Happy Mother's Day to all Texas Moms. :D

Confused? Have a taco and chill everybody! Are you ready for some Saturday Breakfast, still All-Fresh, still All-New?

Today's special breakfast will Saturday Huevos con Tocino y Hongos Breakfast Tacos [COVID-19 Week LX Edition]]! The Head Chef is taking us way back to his childhood today! We are going super simple again by frying up a mess of crispy bacon bits, throwing in a mess of chopped mushrooms to brown in the bacon grease, tossing in a bit of chopped serrano to keep it real, and scrambling in billions upon billions of farm-fresh, Grade AA Large brown eggs. It is what some would call a "hot mess", but that is what makes it so muy delicioso. Just for good measure, a small smattering of Pepper Jack cheese tops it off before it is hand-rolled in a hot, fresh flour tortilla made on the premises multiple times daily. Remember, a whole egg in every taco!® Good stuff!
Today's Special Salsa is our all-new, super-spunky - Jalapeño Ranch - this bad boy is nothing more than thick sour cream, chopped jalapeño peppers, fresh cilantro, a hint of garlic, a pinch of salt, and a touch of lime juice. The taco is hermetically sealed in a Stay-Warm® pouch that is wrapped in the same ol' aluminum foil we are all so familiar with for our breakfast taco. We are trying to keep it real, peeps. For your beverage accompaniment, a packet of Sanka, Tang and a Lipton Tea bag will be included with every delivery as well as salt and pepper and a napkin. Yes, it is different, but it works and you do not even have to leave your residence. Woo! And, watch out for the drones! Start your day off the right way; munch out and go back to sleep.
