Cinco de Mayo!

Happy 5th of May everybody! Any plans? This is pretty much one of my favorite "holidays" because I LIVE for Mexican food.

Tonight we are making Mexican Lasagna (it's actually a really healthy recipe, so we can celebrate AND be good). Tomorrow my friends are having a "Sies de Mayo" party (haha). I'm in charge of margaritas :)

Re: Cinco de Mayo!

  • last year I was all festive and made tacos using ground turkey meat....this year not so much. Maybe I will make that next week but this week its just not in the cards.
  • Feliz Cinco De Mayo!

    Normally my friends and I go to this Mexican retaurant near us, and we each order a pitcher of margarita (or some fantastic Corona cans), throw a straw in it, and wander around the party. This was last year:

    "Unfortunately" this year we are going to Las Vegas tomorrow (obviously, there is nothing unfortunate about Vegas) so we are just going to have a few drinks at a bar down the road.

  • we're getting down with guacamole for dinner tonight! :)
  • I was going to make chicken flautas with rice and guacamole but we'll see how I feel at the end of today. I have been hit hard with sinus congestion and allergies so I may not be cooking tonight.

  • I wish I was going out! I used to ALWAYS go out for Cinco de Mayo....but now that I'm older and married and my friends are the same....it's hard to get everyone together. I'll be home alone tonight since DH has a meeting. I AM meeting 2 of my old friends from HS tomorrow night for Happy Hour though :)

  • I just celebrated by having a sushi dinner in Frankfurt, Germany... lol. Not a lot of good Mexican places when you are more than 4,000 miles from Mexico! I never was big on celebrating Cinco de Mayo though, there's another occasion coming up soon that has always taken precedence for me.
