Perhaps you have noticed many a comment from Ta Mo on here. That would be my mom. If you didn’t already know that, this surely explains a lot. St Mo is Stew’s mom and Stew is redheadedgabriel. Noooow it all comes together.
Ralph and Weaz call my mom The Lady (are you keeping up with all this?) and are happy to report that The Lady is in the house. Sort of. She’s in my brother’s house, but she’s here.
So last night we celebrated with Mexican food at Cantina. Every time Stew and I eat here I think, “Mom would love this.” So it seemed like an ideal restaurant for her first dinner.
First up… table-side guacamole.
My mom is a bit of a guacamole connoisseur and even she was impressed with Cantina’s version. She and Stew have a guacamole battle planned for Christmas break. I will probably NOT be voicing my opinion on the outcome of that little adventure.
I had veggie fajitas (not on the menu but you can get ‘em if you’re nice) and they were enough to feed a large family so we just ate the left overs with lunch today.
Stew ate a frigging child.
Still spouting facts from my life cycle nutrition class, I announced, “You definitely just ate the equivalent of a pre-term infant.” It’s true. My mom also told my dad over the phone that Stew ate a child for dinner with no further explanation. Maahahaha.
So that was our night. My camera le sucks in low light so you’ll have to wait until after tonight’s cookout for real pictures of the whole family. I know everyone’s dying to see that.
ALSO… if you missed it on twitter yesterday… Stew is awesome. He saw that lululemon pullover on my post yesterday and went straight up there and bought it for me.
I’ll keep him.







Yay now we can be pullover twins! How sweet of him! Have fun with your mama.
Ummm he just got major points in my book! You got a keeper there.
That place looks amazing, we will eat there when I move to Charlotte. Deal? Deal!
That’s SO cute that he went back and bought it for you!!!! What a good man. I love that your mom and Stew are having a guac battle also. Too awesome.
bring it, ta mo. i hope you like CEELANTRRO (read like Aarón Sanchez).
NO trash talk here. My guac speaks for itself.
[...] have been oh so thrilled with my latest yoga mat purchase. Though I may have recently been gifted a gorgeous lululemon pullover, we all know I’m not about to drop any of my own precious funds on yoga gear. This is a [...]
