A home cooked Mexican meal

By Mamapumpkin, on November 12th, 2009

For the Hubs’s birthday this month, Mom cooked him the following meal which we wiped out COMPLETELY. I only took photos half way so some of the food was already gone. Like the fajitas……

It was an intimate gathering of just Tok-Tok and Nana, Uncle Ben, the Hubs and me and our girls.

A very delicious moist roast chicken with onion and celery filling. Those baked potato wedges? They are the absolute BEST.

mexican-meal-5

Home baked Nachos with cheese and jalapenos. They were spicy!

mexican-meal-2

Home made guacamole. I chopped the coriander and was obviously too lazy to mince it really fine as you can see

mexican-salsa

Home made Tomato and Mango Salsa.

mexican-meal-8

Sour Cream.

mexican-meal-9

Shredded iceberg lettuce.

mexican-meal-6

Beef tenderloin…..

mexican-meal-7

Rocket salad.

Put all that into a fajita and stuff into mouth.

Mom also baked an orange cake and Tee decorated it. And planted the candles. And blew them out. But of course……

And at the end of dinner, we posed a funny face photo for the road……..see how the Hubs stretched T2′s face just so she could have a funny face too? Poor baby. She really did not ask to be born into our crazy family.

Wow! That’s what I called 5 star life style. As food is the most important thing in our daily life. Now, you got a super chef for free. Posh and cool! Hahahaha……
