Adult Beverages

I'm sure that y'all can agree that 

being 21 sure does have its perks.

I, for one, am not at all ashamed to admit

that flashin' my ID in exchange for "adult beverages"

is the biggest perk of them all.  

So, since I'm finally a big girl and am able to buy all sorts of goods

to concoct something really tasty, 

well, now I'm stumped as to what to make.   

I mean, seriously...

With all of these options, how am I to pick something?

T.G.I...  oh wait, it's Thursday.

Hope everyone had an awesome Thursday.  Couldn't have been too crappy considering it's Cinco de Mayo.  I'll be honest, I did do some celebrating.  This celebrating the holiday business was no crazy experience.  If you count slurping two 1.99 margaritas a celebration, then I guess it was.  Anyways, they were beyond yummy.  

I hope that you all had your fair share of celebrating today.  Because I am a huge fan of the good ole margs, I figured I would share some awesome recipes for some good margs.  I can't help but think that summer is so very close, so it is time to gather those drink recipes.
