Ricardo and some dang fancy pants.
So I told him ‘uhh-uhh please be in my picture, I just love your pants, they’re just so dang fancy’ and he immediately leaned over into this cancan pose. Leigh couldn’t believe I had said such a thing and no doubt was wondering what it the world it was she had gotten herself into…
From this dinner (which was in fact our first dinner) whenever a beverage was in order, we had learned to order tequila shots, and they Always, Everywhere came with a little side glass of Sangrita. Each place had their own twist on the recipe and I searched the internet for one that looked like it would be closest to my favorite, and here it is:
Sangrita of the Yucatan
1 1/2 C Tomato juice
1/2 C Clamato juice
3/4 C Orange juice
2 TBS Minced onion
4 TBS Seeded and minced green chilies
2 TSP Grenadine
1 TSP Salt
1/2 TSP Black pepper
1 Dash each Worcestershire sauce, A-1 Steak sauce, Tabasco
Juice of 4 limes
Stir together all ingredients, strain and chill well before serving.
