Things I Love: Taco Tuesday

If you hadn't noticed, I love reasons to celebrate. And if a summer Tuesday evening isn't good enough, how about my four year anniversary of my last night of being a single lady? After my Mom's friend Debbie sent over a plethora of peppers and squash from her garden, I decided it would be a taco (or fajita) Tuesday! Fresh fruits and veggies inspire me. And we had a nice mellow night of local foods and baseball. I love summer nights...
I started with mango smoothies, simply purred mango and fresh lime juice. Served in my vintage champagne coupes and enjoyed poolside.
I bet this would have made an awesome margarita!
Fresh squash and peppers straight from the garden!
Chicken fajitas for Casey.
And squash fajitas for me.
Served with mango and black bean salad, fresh guac and Greek yogurt.
Yay for garden veggies, mellow nights and simple reasons to be happy!
What is your favorite way to spend a summer night?

  2. YUM!!! Everything looks Delicious!

    My favorite way to spend a summer night is on a beach, after a hot sunbathing day, watching a beautiful sunset. Perfect...
