From the Designer
Take life with a grain of salt…........... a wedge of lime and a shot of tequila. A cute twist on an old adage. This is a cute design for anyone who likes to relax and drink a shot every now and then
20 December 1987, Dallas (TX) Morning News, “Cashing in on the peso” by Horace Sutton:
IXTAPA, Mexico—All this huffing and puffing about the panic that hit the peso ought to be taken—like a shot of tequila—with a grain of salt
