Cinco de Mayo

We had a BBQ this cinco de Mayo and cooked up fajitas. Here was a fun way to present some veggies using sweet small peppers arround the platter. I liked how this presentation turned out. However, one thing I would change is that I would have another bowl for lettuce so guests would be able to serve themselves salad too. I think this presentation hid that possibility.

Lavender Cosmo

Happy Mother's Day! (to me!) This drink was served to me at Skates on the Bay in Berkeley for my Mother's Day Brunch. It was pretty and tasted good too! Now I need to learn how to make it. My guess is a lavender syrup and vodka. Perhaps some citrus too? Also, the glass was rimmed with sugar and lavender. A very nice touch!
