TQLA
TQLA (pronounced “tequila”) recently opened up in Houston paying homage to one of the fastest growing spirits in the world. The food isn’t your typical Mexican menu either, Chef Tommy Birdwell puts a Baja and Tex-Mex twist on many of his dishes. When you walk in you...
Victor’s
One of our favorite Mexican Restaurants happens to be Victor’s. We’ve never had anything bad here, the prices are reasonable and the wait staff is really nice. The place is pretty big. We happened to go right when they opened so it wasn’t very crowded, but here’s a...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 13
We made it home after a very long 15 hour drive. Temps ranged from 19 degrees all the way up to upper 80’s. I had forgotten at the beginning of our trip to take pictures of the house before we threw our junk all around and settled in so the pictures are from the last...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 12
Today is our last full day here and I’m actually pretty sad about it. D was up working early and woke me up to show me the best thing ever…..it’s snowing!!! Bring on the snow!!! M wanted outside so bad to see what all the white stuff was, but she quickly turned...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 11
We woke up to another day of rain until about lunch time when the sun started to shine and the clouds started to move out and reveal all of the fresh snow on the mountains. D worked all day and I grilled us some hot dogs for lunch. Once the work day was done we headed...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 10
Today is a raining day! It’s Easter Sunday so a lot of the shops we stopped at in town weren't open. We decided to have lunch at Bent Street Cafe & Deli. Since it was cold and wet out a cup of soup sounded really good. We chose a bowl of the New Mexico Green Chile...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 9
This morning the clouds where looking heavy so we headed in town for lunch before heading out about an hour away to check out a great scenic road known for lots of wildlife. Alley Cantina is in one of the oldest building in Taos and known for really good burgers and...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 8
Since M was still at the vet and D was off of work today we decided to take a day trip to visit a few of New Mexico’s wineries and Bandelier National Monument. The drive out there was really nice going through the hills along the Gorge. Our first stop was at Vivac...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 7
After one of the best nights sleep I’ve had in a very long time I woke up with one thing on my mind….M. 7am meant making breakfast and killing time until the vets office opened at 8am. I still couldn’t call then because yesterday she told me to hold off until...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 6
Today has been a rough day to say the least! Last night around 11:30pm M started vomiting. Around 1:30am she kept vomiting only every 30 minutes until 5:30am. We both probably got 30 mins sleep total that last night. Poor baby didn’t want anything to eat and couldn’t...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 5
This morning we woke up to overcast raining skies. The end of the cold front was pushing through. We saw wildlife though. M was going nuts when she saw the little bunny. He lives in the wood pile so I’m sure this isn’t the last we’ll see of him. D worked all day while...
Taos, New Mexico – Day 4
This morning as we woke up we where excited to be able to see the moon setting. Such a cool site! As for our plans today they included D working all day. I grilled hot dogs and fixed up chili dogs for lunch. M and I lounged around all day keeping an eye out for...
