Cooking, Eating, Living My Sweet Life in Texas
Sipping Saturday On Saturday’s I enjoy sipping on a refreshing cocktail. May it be at a local Mexican restaurant with a plate of tacos or with my sister at home settling in to watch a movie. My drink of choice would have to be margaritas. A quality tequila swirled with fresh juice and a salt rimmed glass, perfection. Simply perfect for Saturday. Enjoy! Have a great weekend!
This recipe was featured on New Latina. I would like to thank all who stopped by and left wonderful comments and words of encouragement. /em> Cooking for me is comfort. A peaceful break from the busy world, motions that alleviate stressful times in my life or quiet moments to rejuvenate my soul. Cooking gives me the opportunity to spend time with loved ones who offer me endless comfort. Although not physically with me, but in spirit we cook together. When flavors combine, aromas fill the kitchen I can hear their whispers, their encouragement, their love.
Yesterday I spent the entire day deleting pictures of food. Funny how they add up. I ran across this salad from Chuls’s Bday party that I meant to post, but somehow that post got sidetracked. So in the spirit of Spring Cleaning my computer, why not go ahead and post this colorful salad.

Warm tortillas dipped into a creamy bean sauce, topped with a spicy salsa and a sprinkle of cheese. A quick dinner idea, perfect for a crowd with the added bonus of affordability.
My little sister sent me this small paragraph in an email four years ago. International Waffle Day March 25 Originated in Sweden where it is called Vaffeldagen. It occurs nine months to the day before Christmas – the day the Archangel Gabriel told the Virgin Mary that she was pregnant. As the holiday progressed, it also began to commemorate the first day of Spring. Waffle come into play because on March 25th the women of Sweden would set aside their winter tasks like chopping wood and knitting and began their spring task…the most notable which was preparing waffles.
Spring is here, let’s celebrate!! Enjoy ! !
