Chuls suggested we make something “Cool” for July 4th since there would be no fireworks, no festivities, not much of anything since Alex decided to swing by for a quick visit. Thankfully we were spared the grunt and only had a full day of rain and slow Internet service so we are blessed and no one is complaining. We are celebrating July 4th small this year, which is kinda cool- just us four hanging out and chomping on our “cool” colorful tortillas. These tortillas are a twist on your ordinary tortilla recipe, simply replace the water with the juice of your choice. We tried strawberry and blueberry juice to add the colors of… Read More

Dr Pepper Marinated Steaks and Black Bean Salsa

Early mornings with a long day planned are perfect days to eat filling and satisfying tacos.
