A LITTLE BIT OF ‘MEJICO’

PIC: My mother in law had to go to Mexico briefly on Christmas Day to interr her uncle who passed away Christmas Eve. She brought me and my husband back a ‘bolo’ from a Posada her brother held at his house. These are the goodies in the bolo. *These WERE the goodies.* haha

I miss Mexico.

I was born here, and was only there while visiting family in the summers when I was younger…

It’s been eight years since my last visit and I miss it.

I miss the smell of Mexico, the food, the church bells at noon, the walking everywhere on the rocky roads, the weather, I MISS IT.
 

I wish I could go visit without being afraid I won’t come back.

Who knows when that will be… If it will ever be…

So I am thinking about ordering me a big fat cheese pizza from Milanos for lunch today.

I really really really want it.

Why can’t I be like N and eat and eat and eat whatever I want, all day long and STILL look great?!

I can’t understand people who are like that and are sad and miserable. What is wrong with them? 
I would wake up with a smile on my face, and get up and eat a Deluxe Breakfast from McDonald’s  with a Medium Dr. Pepper, and two Apple Pies (2 for a dollar!)  for breakfast EVERY DAY!

Then I would order me a big fat Cheese Pizza from Milano’s for lunch, with a can of Dr. Pepper.

Then for dinner I would cook some Chicken Enchiladas with Rice, have seconds, and thirds,  and wash them down with a cold bottle of Dr. Pepper.

I used to think Casa Ole had the best chicken enchiladas, now I have no doubt in my mind I MAKE THE BEST CHICKEN ENCHILADAS!!

For dessert, I would make my OWN banana split, with lots and lots and lots of peanuts, chocolate syrup, strawberry topping, fresh pineapple, whipped cream, 6 cherries on top, and double scoops of vanilla ice cream, chocolate ice cream, and strawberry ice cream.

For my midnight snack, I would… Just kidding… What do you think I am, a glutton?

I can’t wait until Saturday. That is the day I will have my cheat meal. This time we are definitely going to Johnny Carinos.

We didn’t go last Saturday because we went out to eat at a chinese buffet, her choice.

I cheated anyway, but still, I wanted JC’s.
