My favorite dish, the one I get every time, Taquitos del Rancho: four fried corn tortilla taquitos filled with potatoes (potatoes cooked with onions and tomatoes). Served with Spanish rice, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and guacamole.

Today's picture(s) - St. Patrick's Day
Doesn't everyone spend St. Patrick's Day in a Mexican restaurant? Had a great time with Michael and Estée. The baby is due in less than four weeks!

Michael and Estee look expectantly radiant - and, oh my, does that meal look good.
ReplyDeleteI love your words 'expectantly radiant' - perfect. and yes the meal is great. not all Mexican places offer potatoes in their dishes!
DeleteMy sister-in-law, who is half Mexican and half Filipino, uses potatoes (as well as chicken) in her enchiladas. It's a great way to stretch a meal and quite yummy, too.
DeleteI'm a big potato so this dish makes me happy, happy.
DeleteThat looks yummy. Think we'll be posting baby pics around the same time. 2.5 more weeks here.
ReplyDeleteEstée's mum offered people to guess when the baby would come on her fb page. :<) I think the kids are hoping March.
DeleteSt. Patrick's Day isn't generally observed here in Germany, but I know that it's a roaring party at the Irish pub where I am a regular, never been there for the occasion, though.
ReplyDeleteI love guacamole and often make it just for myself when I intend to spend a cosy quiet evening at home.
It isn't that big a celebration in Ireland either, but it's a huge day in the US. I think mostly because it is an excuse to drink a lot!
DeleteYour family is growing. Such fun getting out for St Patrick's Day. Happiness is...
ReplyDeleteYes, it was such a nice time.
DeleteThat baby will be here before you know it!! And what a beautiful couple. I'll be they're having a great time with their little niece!
ReplyDeleteGuess what? 99% of the time, I order Taquitos, although I get mine with chicken (and rice, beans and guac!). Sometimes, I'll get the Flautas, which are the same only made with flour tortillas instead of corn.
I'd never had them till this restaurant. It has become a real fam fave.
DeleteThat meal looks really good, it reminds me of your potato & bean tacos, YUM!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet photo of your son and daughter-in-law!
And I also love the photo of your Margaret and Hazel. So happy for you all!
Aren't you just amazing to remember the potato and bean tacos!! I can't believe it.
DeleteNot daughter-in-law yet. They decided to put it off and focus on the little one.
Thanks. I'm pleased you like it. The brown is a little bear outfit. :<)
I have some Irish heritage and no Mexican, but I'd definitely rather eat Mexican food than corned beef and cabbage!) Your choice sounds wonderful. Mom and Dad to be look healthy happy and excited. Best of luck to all.
ReplyDeleteneither of those foods have I ever eaten! not appealing at all. :<))
DeleteThank you for your good wishes.
happiness is
ReplyDeletethese two young people :)
