I'd like to request all you wonderful 'spotters' to visit Estela, she'd really like to have some visitors at her blog!!

I went out to celebrate a very close friend of mine's (Roseann) 50th birthday today. Her birthday is actually on Thanksgiving Day, but we celebrated her today!! 14 of her closest friends and family, all women, went to a nice and fun mexican restaurant called La Huasteca. There were mariachi's there, and we all loved our food (which was a good thing, since I picked the restaurant... LOL!!) It was a great time for everyone, and Roseann's mother (whom I've know pretty well for quite awhile) came to me afterward and thanked me for organizing it all for her daughter and for being such a good friend to her... she made me cry!! LOL!! It was 'a moment'... LOL!!

I've decided that I'm going to celebrate my mom's 70th birthday at this same restaurant next year. My mom will LOVE the mariachi's!!! LOL!!

Don't forget to visit Estela... thanks!!

    I'm not overly keen on Mexican food, but I love mariachi bands. There was one particular band that we would occasionally hire for our restaurant and I loved to sit in with them. One of my favorite songs is "Volver, Volver."

    Have you ever heard a mariachi sing Elvis? I had one serenade me with an Elvis song once. It was....interesting. I really like mariachi bands though. Hope you had a wonderful time. I really enjoy reading Estela's blog. I headed there now. Thanks!
