Tequila, Vodka, Vodka, Vodka and Whiskey.
I hit the road on Friday with four of my very dear friends, and met up with our two out-of-staters for a much needed weekend vacation at the waterpark. On Saturday we ate at Pedro's, this fantastic Mexican restaurant right on the strip. Yes, Wisconsin has a strip.
I ordered a Mug-a-Rita. Not a Margarita, because then it wouldn't be served in a 34 oz. mug.
Delicioso.
Dinner was fantastic, too. I ordered the veggie fajitas, and I don't know when cauliflower and broccoli became Mexican standards in fajitas, but I'll take it.
Veg Fajitas.
On Saturday we also went to go get old time photos taken. Don't worry, we did buy the copyrights to our photos so I have the legal rights to post this picture.
My girls.
Now I'm back in Minnesota, ready to get back into the swing of life that includes eating and blogging. Since the Wisconsin Dells was a little bit of an early birthday celebration for me, I did get an early present. I'm now the proud owner of a food processor. Thanks again, ladies!
Questions
- Have you ever been to the Wisconsin Dells?
- Do you have any end of the summer vacation plans?
- What's the first thing I should make in my new food processor?
I've always wanted to do those old timey photos! And I'm loving your mug-a-rita. With your food processor you should make hummus, or maybe some pesto!
ReplyDeletei love a post with that much alcohol. very nice. cute pic!
ReplyDeletenever been to wisconsin and all. no end of summer plans here :(
make HUMMUS! or banana soft serve :)
My end of summer plans is a trip to Canada. It's not supposed to get back into the 70s after this week though, so we'll probably have pretty bad weather.
ReplyDeletewoo hoo, happy birthday (when is it??) :) one of the first things I made with my food processor was a cashew dip... that stuff is the BOMB... you'd love it, I think?
ReplyDeleteI love the vodka vodka vodka :)
my birthday is coming up soon also, and my mom and I are going on a vacation... Jason and I also have a couple weekend trips planned soon WOOT.
i was going to get an old 'sexy' western photo for my birthday but didnt end up finding a time when everyone could get together for it but theyre so fun!!! haha i love the outfits <3
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! I use my mini food processor all the time for things like chopping onions/garlic/tomatoes/cilantro for salsa, homemade hummus, etc. and I use my big-daddy food processor (it's 20 years old!) pretty much only for pie crust. It's great for making pizza dough, too!
ReplyDeletewisconsin i have not been to. but if they serve ritas in mugs and straight liquor bottles over bud light then i'm on the next flight..
ReplyDeleteHow fun! Mugarita is exactly what I need right now :)
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to do one of those old timey photos. They're so much fun! I use my food processor all the time. Next on the list is to make my own almond butter!
ReplyDeleteThat's exciting about the food processer! You should make banana soft serve in it!
ReplyDeleteThat old times pic is hilarious! I'm loving all the outfits. ;)
Food processor = Banana soft serve and nut butters. I am SO JEALOUS! Also, the mugarita reminds me of the college days, there was a great place that would have 32 oz margaritas for $7. Oh the good ol' days.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great weekend! I just got a new food processor as well and have yet to use it! That's such a cute photo of you and your girls.
ReplyDeleteHaha, fun picture of all of you :) and I like the Mug-A-Rita, what a fun thing!
ReplyDeleteGiven your past I would think that pesto would be appropriate. Ha a raw date cake might be nice too. All I know is that food processors come in handy at the most random times.
ReplyDeleteMug-arita!? haha awesome! And the group photo is way cute as well!
ReplyDeleteOmgish! I went to the Dells when I was in middle school! It's actually where I had my first real kiss! Hahah too funny!
