Mickey Mouse Throw Pillows

 


A few weeks ago, Heather reminded me that her birthday was coming up. I told her we could have the whole family to dinner, and asked her what she’d like. I figured I was pretty safe. She’d either pick cheeseburgers (which her dad could grill), or cheese pizza (which could be done take-and-bake). She chose Café Rio’s nachos. I looked into catering, but it was very pricey. Treating all sixteen of us at the restaurant would be even worse. So, I decided to do it all at home: I found copycat recipes online for sweet pork barbacoa, cilantro-lime rice, and Café Rio salad dressing. Just so I wouldn’t be cooking all day, I opted for store-bought beans, pico, guac, vanilla ice cream, and a cherry/chocolate tuxedo cake. If any of the recipes I found turn out well, I’ll probably post them here sometime next week. If they don’t turn out well, we’ll probably be eating them all next week.
