Mi Casa Es Su Casa



We're gonna go all "la cucaracha" on it this week.
Mexican food is the theme for this Wednesday.

The Hillands are going to bring beef enchiladas.

Other ideas are:
Tacos
Fajitas
Tamales
Nachos
Mexican casserole
Taco salad
7 layer dip
Queso
Salsa
Guacamole
Sour cream
Shredded cheese

This may be a good week to pair up with someone and bring something together.
(For tacos, one of you bring taco shells and shredded cheese - the other could bring taco meat and lettuce and tomato ... or whatever.)

Of course we can always use desserts.

See you on Wednesday!
