Mi Hermosa Hija

Mi Hermosa Hija - My Beautiful Daughter.

     Today I called my daughter, 19, and asked her to meet me for lunch.  She said "How about dinner?"  "Ok.  Come by at 5:30."   I arrived home at 5:10.   So at 5:15 this is what I put together.  Even surprised myself at how fast it came together, about 10 minutes.  She brought her good buddy, Jake, along with her.  Wish I'd gotten a picture of him.
     I wanted to make low-cal fajuitas, so I brought out my Mexican-inspired dishware.

Plates, placemats, tortilla dish, salad bowl  and glassware purchased at Dillards.

Bowls to fill with corn & beans, mixed peppers and onions, and roasted chicken pieces.  Purchasd at Kohls.

BING BONG!  (Helen, that one is for you)   I found two red salad bowls.

Shopping the house to see what I can find . . . . perfect.

Didn't know where to place the appetizer spreader knife, so I tucked it right into the napkin ring.

This vase of flowers was already on the bar.  How perfect is that?

While rushing through Dierbergs I came upon the sample platter of their Apricot Feta Spread Torte.  Irresistable.  Smart marketing techinique.  5:00.  Hungry.  SOLD!

Best of all was visiting my busy daughter and her good friend Jake.  The meal was fast and easy - Big salad and chicken faquitas.  And too much apricot feta cheese torte.
