One of my favourite hobbies is to create digital products and resources for myself and others - workbooks, worksheets, guides, maps, checklists, journals, you name it, I've probably got some version of it somewhere on the internet (or my desktop). Ofcourse, I'm not an expert so I've tried any avenue possible to see where I enjoy the creative process the most, and where I can publish it to download for free or to sell. Some websites that sell also have a space for browsing and buying digital products. Enjoy this list and let me know if you've tried any of these platforms or if there are others we could add here!

because mexican food can be elevated, and it can also be street food. it has so many faces and flavors that not only one version of your abuelitas cocina is true, from north to south, there is so much richness and variety that is hard for one single mexican to even know the complexity and the full variety of it. Every corner of mexico is capable of its own version of mole, barbacoa, or tacos and its so beautiful to experience all of it without judgement and with openness to appreciate. this post is to showcase some of the modern mexican concept restaurants that I am so happy to see thrive in a place like Denver. That for sooo many years you could not find a vast or true representation of all that is Mexican cuisine can be. I am also a fan of the aesthetics and the experience bc I am also *just a girl* so these are honestly a fave for date nights, girls night, or a celebratory dinner spot.
