Margaritas :: My New Love

by Nina on July 8, 2009

margarita

It’s the honest truth, I drank my very first margarita on Monday night. I don’t know why, but I’ve always just thought I did not like them. Boy, was I wrong. wrong. wrong. I thought Monday might have been a fluke… but then last night was Tuesday Tradition (I’m a newbie) at a local Mexican restaurant and I indulged in a couple more! My exact quote was, “GAWD, I’ve been missin’ out.”

That’s it. That’s the story. I know, it’s not that good. Maybe it’s the 7-year taste bud change??

Child, I am only letting this one slide b/c you’re damn cute and you’re from the Mid-West… if you were a Texas gal, we’d be in a BIG fight!

You crack me up!!! Love it. I’m telling you… I’m right there with you, it’s a cryin’ shame I have not been throwing back the margs for the last 28 1/2 years! Just thanking God that I got this sitcho straightened out before my next trip to Dallas :)

Wow Nina, I can’t believe that you haven’t had a margarita before, and I’m glad that you finally could taste the goodness! Enjoy your new found friend :)

I love, love, LOVE margaritas. I love them with salt but also with SUGAR on the rim. Whenever you want something really sweet ask for that. :-)

I didn’t start liking margaritias until my sister married someone who owns a Mexican restaurant and they were forced on me! Now, I love them…
My friend served a delicous and easy to make margaritia a few weeks ago. The reciept is on my blog!

Are you KIDDING me?? Margaritas are like water to me and tequila is the lemonade of my life. I don’t know how you’ve made it this far without their frozen-y, chilled and over the rocks-y goodness. Bless you for having discovered them at long last.

I’m glad you’ve discovered the deliciousness that is margaritas. If you’re ever in Atlanta take a trip to Tin Lizzy’s. They have so many flavors of margaritas you will never want to leave!

Girl it’s about time you discovered the goodness that is a margarita! MMmmmm! I used to only drink the frozen raspberry ones but now I love a regular margarita on the rocks w/salt. Is it a bad thing to be craving one at 9:40am?!

Hey Girl! Stoping by to say “hey”, I’ve been a total slacker and have missed you! Margs are the BEST….you go with salt or no salt on the rim?

hugs!!
