So, today we saw three foals. One was born yesterday. All three nursing. We also saw a 20 year old arthritic horse (former race horse, Mountain John), swim three laps around a pool. And we saw a very large number of alpacas, ranging from black to white, with all shades of tan, brown and grays.
Where were we? In Upperville, of course, at the annual hunt show. We did not go to see the former Kentucky Derby winner, or Paul Mellon's barn, or the other stables that were open for inspection.
But it was all very interesting, and western Loudoun and eastern Fauquier Counties are quite beautiful.
Oh, yes, three cheers for the beef burritos with red sauce at Anita's in Chantilly. (actually, I didn't eat the burrito)

why do you cheer the burrito you didn't eat?
Hannah has a good point! How can I comment about a burrito I did not eat.
Well, either I ate it and did not want to admit it. Or I commented without any basis for the comment.
At least that is what you would think.
But there is a third possibility, and it has to do with the definition of a 'burrito'. If a burrito is the whole enchilada (the worst of mixed metaphors, I know), the it includes the beef and the cheese and everything else within it or sticking to it. But if the burrito is the defined only as the wrap into which the everything else is poured, then you can eat the innards and the outtards, without eating the burrito.
