Mexican Food On Labor Day Weekend!

So a few days ago at work, Rudy my boss threw out a spiff(bonus cash for most sales).  Only this time the spiff was for a great meal!  He promised if we reached a certain amount of sales by 4 pm then he would get us all some hot tacos with fresh lemonade!  He kept talking about it and it started making me salvivate!  I was a little bummed too, because I knew that even if we did hit the sales that he wanted, I wouldn't get to benefit from the tacos as much.  The rules and spiffs are just different when you are a manager and don't have time to make many sales.

But regardless the concept of tacos kept going through my mind and when I got home Kristen and I started talking about how I should make my delicious Mexican tacos.  I learned to make some pretty awesome tacos on my mission!  So we prepared a list of all the ingredients we would have to pick up.  When it came down to it we had: tomatoes, tomatillos(little green tomatoes that are very juicy), peppers, cilantro, corn tortillas, steak, onion, jarritos soda, limes and tapatio hot sauce!

So since today was fast sunday, it was our break the fast meal!  We started preparing at 4pm or so and the whole meal: preparation, cooking, portioning off the food, eating and cleaning up took about 2 hours but was so worth it!  We had strawberry Jello for our first dessert and just finished off our 2nd dessert of hot fudge chocolate cake and monster cookie ice cream!  Yes my friends we are celebrating labor day the right way!  And we both have only a little bit of work to do tomorrow! :)
