It's Cinco de Mayo. What are you making?

Me? Carne asada tacos and beans. Marinated a skirt steak last night and started the beans soaking. Making guacamole and pico de gallo before I grill the steak. YUM!

Why is it impossible to buy corn tortillas in packages of a dozen anymore? All I could get was a package of thirty. HTF am I supposed to eat thirty tacos?

You don’t know how many times I have yelled this at my local grocery store… even the local tortilla makers are making packages of a million. If I only had a duck… I could feed the duck all of the extra tortillas.

I’m making margies for dinner. The end.

Hmmm . . . why didn’t I think of that? I see a trip to the liquor store in my immediate future.

Porterhouse pork chop and tamales with eggplant and tomatoes. Cinco de Mayo isn’t a very big deal around here.

Roberto_Rogness · May 5, 2009, 9:45pm

Everyone is already partied out from the celebrations held here last weekend. I think left over pizza is on the menu tonight…

Just finished tacos el pastor y carnitas con spicy Tabasco Reserve with a nice crisp Sauvignon Blanc.

Crablegs, a salad and some leftover 2001 Switchback Petite.

Roberto_Rogness · May 6, 2009, 12:04am

Petite Sirah with crab meat and a salad??? That must be an interesting interaction to say the least…

BobH · May 6, 2009, 12:23am

Well, considering that it is a holiday that was, for all intents and purposes, made up by Corona Beer, the worst beer in America or anywhere else… NOTHING!

Nancy_Dolce · May 6, 2009, 12:48am

Leftover homemade lentil soup.

Scotch / rocks.

Jorge_Henriquez · May 6, 2009, 12:54am

Really Bob?!?!?!? You taking the Buds, Coors, Shlitz, PBRs and other crap out of the running to make this announcement?

Denny_P_e_n_t_e_c_o_s_t · May 6, 2009, 1:35am

It wasn’t intended. Just didn’t want to waste day old petite.

Kent_Zimmerman · May 6, 2009, 2:03am

Thai food, fried chicken and whiskey. All left over from yesterday’s big Star Wars Day celebration. May the 4th be with you.

Homemade tacos if we get home pretty soon. We are still debating on the wine.

Sarah_Warner · May 6, 2009, 5:55am

Nap! Now cannot sleep. Must find tequila!

Tony_V_e_l_e_b_i_l · May 6, 2009, 1:52pm

well, traci was going to make whiskey glazed salmon or something…I said, let’s go out for Mexican. So we headed over to La Pinata for a margarita and Mexican food. She had carnitas tacos, I had the New Mexico red chile enchiladas with a fried egg and carnitas. Very good.

Mark.Ricca · May 6, 2009, 4:07pm

Had the margaritas in the shaker 10 minutes after Stacey hit the door at 5:30p.

I’m still doing 1/3 lime juice, 1/3 Cointreau, and 1/3 Cuervo Tradicional, but I think I might tweak the recipe a bit.

We ended up having penne marinara and salad for dinner. We’re still on a meat break after FFII.

Btw Senor Hudak, Cinco de Mayo is a very real holiday but I doubt anyone pounding Coronas yesterday would know that.

Margarita with Cointreau and Tres Generaciones Anejo followed by a USDA Prime Rib Eye and baked tater with a bottle of 2007 Justin Vineyards Paso Robles Syrah.

Sweet!
