(Photo from here)OXXO is a very popular grocery station on almost every corner in Monterrey (where my mom lived). I pointed to the sign and said, "Look Mom! Hug, kiss, kiss, hug!" meaning that it reminded me of XOXO. And after that, it was our thing. On every letter (this was pre-email era), every birthday card, everything was ended with OXXO (and not the store). Don't believe me? I'll show you.

If you're ever in Mexico and see an OXXO, think of me and my momma. Matt thinks we're bananas but it always makes the two of us smile.

At saffrons I can't even REMEMBER what I ordered..hehe. It was one of the noodle dinners with some spice :)
How sweet!
And the Paleo is a diet where you don't eat anything processed, no grains, and no dairy. Only fruits, veggies, and lean meats.
I love that! Such a cute little inside joke between the two of you. :)
What a sweet inside joke!
Cute!!

I hadn't heard of the store before, but I think this is a very cute tradition. And, really, wouldn't Matt probably think you're bananas either way? ;)
