Cinco de Mayo

What are your plans for Cinco de Mayo? If celebrating at home, does anyone care to share their dinner menu?

Re: Cinco de Mayo

  • I'm working, eating a cheeseburger, then taking a nap. Yay me.

    Nothing special here.

  • I'm having dinner with friends. I'm bringing buffalo chicken quesadillas and Nooner's guacamole.
  • I usually cook Mexican food on Cinco de Mayo, but our refrigerator is still empty. The restaurants will be too packed. We'll probably just have Chinese or something.
  • making pork tacos using the same method as the salsa chicken, only with a pork loin.

    Also making guac (I love guac)

    and having a very large margarita!

  • We're celebrating siete de mayo this year.

    Last week I mentioned to friends that I have an an aweseom fajita recipe and they were pumped because they've never had awesome homemade fajitas. They're coming over on Saturday night so I'll be making those and maybe Nooners margarita cupcakes.

    I could eat avocados every day! Nom nom! I'm making your guac recipe in your blog, but I think I may make it chunkier...like a guacamole salad.

  • All I have to do is so much as read the word guacamole, and I just CRAVE it.
  • My CW made chicken enchiladas and they are DELICIOUS.

    Same here. I could totally go for come guac, salsa and chips right now. Nom.

    I'm really picky about my guac though. If it's not a certain color green, I can't eat it. Odd but true.

    Ninth Anniversary 2500 Comments 25 Love Its Name Dropper

    It's the only sunny day this week.

    It's Cinco de Mayo.

    I work downtown in an emergency department that accumulates a lot of intoxicated people. 

    It's finals/graduation week at the Catholic university down the street from where I work.

    Hence, I'm going to be in hel! today. But I'm making taco salad and mexican rice tomorrow. Maybe I'll make margaritas too for DH and I. :)

    Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
  • I love any excuse for mexican food! But we're not going out for it, all the places are crazy this day.

    We're having vegetarian tacos (soy crumbles, they're actually pretty good) with black beans. I hope there's margaritas involved, but at this point, I'm not sure. I had a couple on tuesday night so those might have to count.   

  • We went to Acapulcos for lunch, and now we're sipping margaritas. Yay!

    Also celebrating Seis de Mayo with friends tomorrow night at Margaritas.  Another yay!

  • We ended up going to the liquor store to.get a bottle of Skinny Girl Margarits and Taco Bell to go. It was delish but not as good.as the.food.from Fiesta Mexican Bar & Grill but it would have been packed and is way more expensive. So we had a good night in and I had one well deserved drink!

    How is that? Worth buying?
