babes

this is the morning after, and i am not going to be drinking anymore of these drinks called "bay breezes", somehow morphed into "babe drinks". no more. i started drinking em on the beach at around 4 pm, and by the time i should have been making dinner, all i wanted was a nap for the rest of the night. but as i am sleeping on the couch in the main room, and as i do enjoy making dinner, i stayed awake and kept drinking those babes.

how we managed to have me here cooking and micheal here making drinks is a point that the moms all really like mentioning. like they pointed us in this direction so that on beach vacations there would be one bartender and one cook.

we did actually have a 'bar' last night. the plan on the way to vacation was to have a different 'bar' each night: pasta, taco, potato, salad, etc... the first couple nights it just felt a lot easier to throw everything together. but last night i laid it all out. build your own fajitas...

i really hate eating and cooking chicken (unless jenna makes it), but people were clamoring for some. marinade: tequila, lime, jalepeno, taco seasoning packet, red onion, oil. black beans cooked with onions, garlic, jalepeno. sauteed red peppers and onions. had some cheese, some sour cream, some tomatoes. chips and salsa. i realized about 5 minutes before dinner was ready that i had forgotten about avocados completely. so we had no guac, no green. i am still feeling shame.

the most fun part was that when people are building their own, everybody's looks so different!
