Warning! If you dig Mexican Food, do not read the following blog entry while you are hungry!
So, Saturday was my big Birthday throw down. The plan was simple: Invite over Ma, Pa, Bro, Boolah, and Fitch, eat homemade Mexican food, score gifts, and watch old video tapes we had made way back when. (Side note: Man, I still ain't got the best skin in the world, but woogah did I look bad when I was 16.)
What was the menu you ask? Welp, we had ourselves a good ole mix and match Taco Buffet. Here's the rundown:
-Tortillas: Homemade Flour and Homemade Corn
-Fillings: Queso Fundido (aka Melted Cheese), Chipotle Marinated Pork, Aqua Negra Steak, and (my own special recipe) Cactus Chicken
-Cheez: Chedder and Queso Fresco
-Homemade Salsas: Roasted Ancho (thumbs down), Smoked Chile (meh), Red Roasted Tomato (Thumbs Up), Spicy Tomatillo (Two Thumbs Up)
-Sides: Sour Cream and Santitas Tortilla Chips
For Dessert Ma fixed up a Lemon Cake served with Ice Cream and Chocolate Syrup. Needless to say, I had to be wheeled around in a motorized cart for the rest of the night. Made out like a bandit on the BDay gifts as well. The Moral of the Story: Every so often I may bitch and moan about my status in life, but at the end of the day, I gots it made baby.

wish I could of been there man.
I love those little moments in life -- when everything seems to suck -- and for a small moment in time, you realize that you don't have it that bad. I just wish we could hold on to them for a little longer.
Anything you have left over on the birthday wish; I can pick you up a belated birthday gift while I'm in the Smokey Mountain region in a few days.
Oooohhh. Why did I read that. I love mexican food. Why didn't I heed the warning.
