Thanks Dace!! WOOT!!!

All I need is that, in a big ice-cold glass, a basket of chips and a bowl of salsa and I'm the happiest girl in the world!!

Shoot, this deserves it's own thread!!

Looks good hua? But, for you my friend, you have 3 1/2 more years to go.

Be sure to eat those chips with some fermented salsa, then you won't feel quite so bad and Miss Free won't be hunting you down to slap you with some soggy broccoli.

I think chili and margarita sounds awesome, and after the day I've had I could call the booze medicinal.

...and cheese....

wait did someone say tequila!?? whoot!

here's how i make a margarita:

1. open tequila bottle
2. open bottle of mike's hard lemonade
3. alternate drinking from each
4. fall over... but you can't have one until AFTER chores, of course. never try to milk a goat if you are drunk. i assure you this advice is sound.

BBH, I am making your Cheesy Beer Chili today and it smells FABULOUS! I had to make a half recipe since I didn't have a whole 16 oz of cheese & DH wants it cheesy, but I didn't skimp on the beer & I think I'll make some cornbread to go with.
Chili is great rainy day food and since it rained at my house for 2 whole minutes today (remember, I live in the desert), I used it for motivation.
