one time we went to presque-isle maine for a wedding and needed to kill time and were pretty hungry. we hit the bell and she is devastated that they won’t make her the fries supreme

that was also where/when i tried the doritos locos taco. once. saltied thing i’ve ever eaten, besides a kfc double down

if i actually go to the bell for some reason my go to is a chalupa or a cheesy gordita crunch

are those even still menu items? i haven’t been in years.

the in law aunts all used to love going to bangor for xmas shops.

i haven’t made it to the island yet, maybe 2022 :sigh:

halifax is on our list of retirement cities tho. i honestly love the maritimes and think it’s criminally underrated by the rest of canada. we went to nfld a couple of years ago and it was one of the most amazing trips of my life.

I can't eat fast food right now due to the one-two punch of me self-pickling my liver the first half of this year and rising BP. gotta watch that salt for a bit.

drown yourself in anti hypertensives

all lifestyle interventions combined can make a difference of like 8 mmHg or something pathetic like that

A good blood pressure meter is like 30€, the results don't need a doctor to read.

e: In fact around here when a doctor says "we need to keep an eye on your blood pressure" that means they want you to take regular measurements at home, either with a loaner or your own unit.
