Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

I'd do something Portuguese to honor you guys today, but I can't think of anything.  Any suggestions? :D

Eat a bifana sandwich.

Or the glory of Porto, the "Francesinha", true testament about artery-clogging food being universal and not an American exclusive.  :P

Get some pasteis de nata if you can.

Ok, you gave me a good reason to go ASAP to the Portuguese bakery downtown.  :lol:

Also, picanha (admitedly Brazilian rather than Portuguese, but also very common over there).  :mmm:

Man, I really miss being able to go to Portugal since the lockdown started, for me it doesn't really count as going abroad as I live less than one hour away from the border. Apparently we won't be able to visit the country until July.

Yeah - going to the Portuguese shop down the road now to get some natas. And probably some bacalhau :mmm:
Let's bomb Russia!

Eat cod and long for home.

With some Portuguese white wine. :) You can try vinho verde if the weather is hot.

I'll seek out some vinho verde, as it is a bit hot.  If all else fails, I'll just do my wife since she's part Portuguese :D
