Cinco De Mayo!

Is anyone doing anything interesting for Cinco De Mayo?  We don't usually make a big deal about it, but this year my friends and I are planning on hitting up a really shady (but delicious) Mexican restaurant just outside of town and drinking Margaritas!  (Nothing too crazy, because it's a Thursday...)

Re: Cinco De Mayo!

  • Last year we tired going to a local Mexican place, but it was packed, so we just went home and made tacos instead.  I think we will do the same thing this year.

    Los Tres?  Yummy!  That sounds so good. I bet it is a mad house though.

    No plans really. Maybe I will make some nachos and drink my skinnygirl margarita mix. Haha..diet margarita and nachos. Makes sense to me. :-p

  • It depends on our schedules.  This year since DH is done with school we will be at Mexico Lindo for dinner.

  • Usually we just make tacos or nachos at home and have coronas or margaritas.  I just made nachos last night, though, and there will be no margaritas for me this year :-(  So I think we'll be doing nothing at all this year.

  • Grrrr...not really sure what my computer did there...I didn't even try to post that and it did it anyways!

    So...what I was trying to post is that we don't really do anything on the actual day. My stepbrother has a party every year, but throws it on whatever Saturday is the closest. His party is this Saturday, and we're going. Always fun & good food!  

     

  • I teach high school Spanish so it's a fun day for me.  We are having parties in all my classrooms where I make quesadillas and other things that the kids bring in.

    Then DH and I are leaving for Vegas that night!  I figure I'll have a Corona on the plane or a few when we get there!  Ole!

  • I used to have a party every year but no all of our friends have babies are pregnant or breastfeeding so only the men would participate. I used to do a pinata stuffed with singles and mini liquor bottles a mexican buffet spread and have sombreros for everyone complete with gaucho mustaches for picture taking.

    This year H and I are going to the Tigers game on a date because we don't see each other during the week.

    They were a lot of fun. One year I ordered a plastic cut out for folks to stick their head in for pictures. It was a Mariachi Player and a Sinarita. It was hilarious.
