As I’m sure you are all well-aware, this past Saturday was both Cinco de Mayo and the Kentucky Derby. While I think most of the east-coasters I live around now are more used to celebrating the Derby, I decided to bring a little of our west coast love of Mexican Independence Day to our little casa. Our get-together was very small and fairly last minute, but with a few simple decorative touches and a pot-luck Mexican dip-off, the guests were kept very entertained!
{Make your own Margarita Bar}
{mini cocktail shakers}
{Lime juice in a Corona Light bottle}
{Some of the fabulous dips, quesadillas, and mexican wedding cookies}
{DE-LIC-LIOUS salad, which was also a great topping for the tacos that I don’t have a picture of}
What do you think? How did you celebrate Cinco de Mayo/Kentucky Derby?
Also- I did a little “Runway to Room” Guest Post for Lindsey over at Pinklet and C – check it out here!
















Where did you get that fab white+gold paper where you wrote the margarita menu?
I bought bristol board and gold reflective tape from the craft store and made it myself! The tape is in the Martha Stewart collection- and I use it all the time!
