Episode 158: Aimee Did It, LIVE!
Episode description
RUN
This week we recap our first live race of 2021! It’s also Aimee’s first race back since the knee surgery. The Cape Coral Animal Shelter’s Rescue Run was a 5K to benefit our hometown’s first and only rescue facility for animals. The weather was beautiful. There was a great “runners village” during the pre-race with coffee, breakfast, and more! With no pace requirements, it was the perfect race to pet dogs and follow the advice of our Physical Therapist, which was to walk the entire distance. We finished last. It was a great morning to start a comeback and support a fantastic organization. And, puppies!
EAT
We first met AJ & Christina Bordelon when we covered the Viet Yum Food Truck on Episode 104 at Fort Myers Brewing Company’s 7th Anniversary. They were so nice and the Bahn Mi Rice Bowl was so tasty at that event.
Fast forward to a year later. They are still going strong! They reached out to us and said, hey, come try our new dish. It is called Saigon Wusubi. Their description on the instagram post that introduced it says it all, “Our little take on Spam Musubi! Fried spam caramelized in our Saigon Sauce wrapped with Jasmine rice, toasted black sesame seeds, green onions and nori seaweed, drizzled with our spicy mayo mix. So YUM!”

Thanks to AJ and Christina for inviting us! We can’t wait to get back and have more of their tasty bites!
DRINK
We met the owners and founders of The Clever Bean at the start of our humble podcast, virtually, of course. They are based in Draper, Utah. They opened a coffee shop up there and we were supporting them via social media. They were nice enough to send us coffee beans and that tempted us to look for races out their way. Then, of course, the pandemic. The founders of The Clever Bean had to close their shop. But that did not deter them from finding success. They have found it by making their product available online and continuing to expand and create. We were lucky enough to be selected to be a part of the Clever Cold Brew Crew and beta-test their cold brew kit. Their product did not disappoint! It is delicious earthy medium coffee and easy to make. We can’t wait to come up with cold brew cocktails and mocktails! Thank you Craton Edwards and Dennis Garrett, founders of Th
