Happy Cinco de Mayo!
Today is one of my favorite days of the year! A time to get together with friends over margaritas, tacos, chips, salsa, guacamole and all things Mexican!
This year the celebration is filled with mixed emotions, my beloved hometown of Fort McMurray, Alberta has been ravaged by wild fires, forcing the 80,000 inhabitants from their homes. While I’m heart broken over the devastation and loss, the way Canadians pull together in times of tragedy has my heart bursting with pride and gratitude. So I figure after the emotional roller coaster Albertans have been on this week, a Spicy Jalapeno Margarita is just the thing to calm the nerves and celebrate Cino de Mayo.
