It would so happen that the year Cinco de Mayo falls on Taco Tuesday, it gets canceled by a virus with the name Corona (lol). For me, it is also the first time that I have not worked a Cinco at Swell in five years so things have definitely felt a little different. I love me some tequila and what better time to share some recipes than now…
Lately, I have been feeling the urge to have a glass of wine a little earlier and earlier each day (which does alcohol etiquette still apply during quarantine?) My days have been consisting of waking up, checking Instagram and Facebook, checking my emails, reaching out to clients, web designing, maybe working out and then binge-watching anything that seems interesting on TV while indulging in a casual whole bottle of wine…
Is it just me, or does this quarantine make you feel like it is happy hour all day every day? Tonight, my boyfriend’s mom, whipped up some delicious fish tacos with a fresh mango salsa so I thought it was fitting to through a little margarita into the mix. I love the freshness of a Paloma (tequila + lime + grapefruit) and love the frothiness of a shaken margarita, so I mixed the two up to bring you a Grapefruit Margarita (with a touch a mint.)
We are now 19 days into this whole ‘social distancing’ thing and I am definitely going a little stir crazy. One of my favorite past times is eating out (which we are forbidden to do right now) so I am reminiscing on some of my favorite restaurants. Here is a list of places I cannot wait to get back to once this sh*t is over!
Sometimes all we need is a little push from an outside source to make you take the leap. That is what this self-distancing, COVID-19, outbreak has done for me. Today, I have decided to take my passion for food, travel, health, fashion, media and web design viral. Turning 23 only a week ago, I felt like what better time to push myself to achieve my goals but now. No excuses. This space will allow me to share my creativity and ideas and elaborate on the things you all want to see more of. Starting a blog has been a goal of mine for a couple of years now and I always lost the motivation or cared too much of who would judge me, that I allowed it to not happen.
