I would love to join you with that meal. The drink, not so much....

Hahaaa...!
Yea, I don't normally drink mimosas, but, if that's a way I get away with a bit of booze in the mornin' every now and then, I'm in...!

 

[MOXOMUMD]

I go for salty, chips of any kind.

Me too. I choose chips over chocolate.

 

[donaldtoo]

I was good up until I saw the oysters at the bottom.

I'm good. I'd drink/eat the heck outta' ALL a' that...!

 

[Gabe1]

I am sitting in the sun doing absolutely nothing. It's glorious.

After the semester you had you deserve it woman!

Oh my. Again? Stay safe, Gabe!

We lucked out. Amen.

Out of the basement. More and more tornadoes are hitting. We have people that have been hit in a camp site in campers and motor homes by the tornado leveling the gas station near by. The storm is not letting up and is just spinning off more and more tornadoes. The tornado line is at least south and east of us now. Hate this.

One of my co-workers just circulated this article: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs...b&nl=upshot&em_pos=large&emc=edit_up_20150619

Hopefully none of you have a phobia of cows or driving!

No, not at all...

Prayers to y'all, and all.
Hope y'all don't have to head to the basement again. Very scary.
Being redundant, but, please stay safe and alert.

 

[Gabe1]

why not a full campechana?

Scrape the plate please. What is in the glass?

I for one welcome photos anytime during or after a trip. You got 'um post them.

Thanks. Another one just popped up here, well North and West of the track of the repeat tornadoes. What the heck? They are now calling it a double dose and the high winds are picking up again.

Disney should make a t-shirt with this on it.

I have this on a flag for my porch. I bought it from WDW a few years ago.

O.k. Idiot disclaimer ahead: you've been warned--

I read in a magazine about how you can make frozen yogurt pops. It looked easy enough, so I went to BB & Beyond and bought some (popsicle-style) freezer molds. I then mixed the yogurt, vanilla, honey and 6 oz. of blueberries and 6 oz. of blackberries together. Divided that up into the 6 molds and put in freezer for 8 hours.

Mentioned my frozen treat masterpiece to hubby. He said, "Did you try out the new blender?" ( We had just bought a new Oster blender this past week.) I said, "Huh? What does the blender have to do with my frozen yogurt?" He said, "Oh, I just assumed you'd have blended up the fruit and mixed it into the yogurt." . . . what??! I was supposed to what??!!) It NEVER dawned on marble head here, that "blend" meant to put the fruit into a blender!!!

So, 8 hours later, I took out one of frozen treats and the frozen yogurt was tasty and all but the blueberries and blackberries were like these frozen little rocks inside!

Ha!

Me I would just put the frozen pops back in the blender, pour back in the mold and back in the freezer.

FYI-Blend is a loose term, you can hand blend in any ingredient or you can blend with a mixer or blender. They need to be more specific. Peel that idiot disclaimer off your forehead.

I was good up until I saw the oysters at the bottom.

Yep, oysters, well just never happening.

 

[MOXOMUMD]

Pass.

Spoiler

You nearly brought to an end my "Vomit-free since December '96" streak with that pic.

Double pass!

 

[MOXOMUMD]

Probably not, unless I can get the beer in plastic break-proof bottles...!!!

Aluminum bottles

aaah, good choice, I love the arrachera cut there.
I usually skip the eggs if I'm going to a restaurant.
Nothing like a good platter of chilaquiles, flautas or arrachera.

Thanks!
Sooo good! I sopped up the egg yokes with slices of that delectable meat.
And, yes, I'll have all that other stuff you mentioned, too...!

Oh yum. I'd eat that daily, either recipe. Slurp.

Just skip the plate with the oysters below.

 

[donaldtoo]

Who does that?
I've never experienced that before.

Hah! I just say "it's noon somewhere!" (or whatever socially appropriate time it is to start drinking)
