What wonderful weather we’ve been having the last few days here in beautiful Colorado. It was 94 degrees yesterday! Color me HAPPY! It almost makes up for the insane winter we had, with its early start and late finish. (Almost…)
I love the gorgeous blue skies we get here:
It’s been perfect for hanging out in the backyard with good friends and nutritious food, which is exactly what we did after work last night. Dinner was so yummy, I thought I’d share what was on the menu for our Beat the Heat Mexi-Que. Everything turned out great and I enjoyed every bite. ¡Muy delicioso!
