Happy Cinco De Mayo!! We had a dinner party last night, with the Towlers and the Whites, and a brief drop-by by Lisa and Larissa Shirley and Tonya, a girl from youth group.
I made chila quiles, an old family recipe...well, my sister made it for us at Christmas, and I got the recipe from her. I also made tamales, and taquitos and virgin lime-watermelon-strawberry margaritas...and flan. The kids wore sombreros, and we took to a pinata after dinner and before dessert.
Ole!

This is too funny!
I told one of my Bi-Lingual Hispanic children happy Cinco de Mayo and she said,"We don't celebrate it, we're not Mexican."
I smiled and said, "I'm not Mexican either."
She got it!
YOu go Tate party animals, you!
