This past Saturday I invited some family over for a BBQ, which turned into a Mexican feast when they said they were bringing homemade chips and salsa. Funny, just after I talked to my cousin about our planned feast, Ree over at the Pioneer Woman posted a recipe for Quesadilla de Camarones. I thought this would be the perfect time to try out a new recipe.
And what feast is not complete without something to wash it down with. At the request of hubby, I ended up making some Strawberry Daiquiris. A delightful beverage to enjoy the last remnants of summer with. Before company arrived, I just had to photograph this chillin’ creation for Ruby Red Tuesday.
