Civilization came to visit


It's hard to believe we've been here almost a year. Once the shock of it all set in, I started to miss some things. But that isn't what this post is about...

It's about a little slice of civilization paying a visit. Yes, Mr. Joe Crow himself...

Cuervo is one thing. However, the mixer here is another. But then again, if you've never had a real Margarita this stuff would be the shizzle. The Aussies we made drinks for thought they'd found Nirvana - we didn't have the heart to tell them they were drinking Cuervo and green syrup.

The marketing of this product cracks me up. Take a closer look at the labels. El Rebozo? Is he the clown we all know and love from 1960's TV?

Anyway, it was a nice slice of home - on ice. Nothing like La Cabana in Venice, but enough to remind me of what is North of the border.
