Fajitas for breakfast?

This Friday, we did something we don’t do very often.
We went out to eat!
Of course, we went to the same type of place we always go if we are going to splurge;
A Mexican restaurant!
One of my all time favorite foods (hubby too) is Fajitas.
Yes, I do know how to make them from scratch, but part [...]

Flip Flop Flip Flop

Yee Haw! It’s Flip Flop Weather!
Have you busted out your flip flops yet?
I DID!
But before I could respectably display my tootsies, I needed to give myself a
