After dinner dinner and drinks


Ok, I'm going to stop now, this is the last one for today I think. We had a barbecue earlier this year when it started to get warm and this isn't even what we had. I don't even remember what we made for food, wait oh yeah, we had Tabasco butter shrimp (that's one of 'em on that michelada) and ribs and maybe fruit salad and potato salad maybe? And apple tarte tatin, fancy Ashley. And Maggie made cinnamon toast ice cream, it's all coming back to me now. But we didn't take any pictures of that stuff. But then later, waaaaay later, we got hungry again and someone (Eric I'm sure because it involves white american cheese) dug around in the fridge and there were hot dogs, the big Hebrew National beef knockwurst ones, white american cheese, pumpernickel bread, mustard and sandwich stacker pickle slices. So we split the hot dogs and grilled 'em and put the other stuff on and made some entirely delicious sandwiches.



Michelada
makes 1

ice
mexican beer, I like sol or pacifico
4 big dashes Valentina hot sauce (or another kind of thickish Mexican-y one)
4 big dashes Maggi seasoning
2 big dashes Wosterchire sauce
1/2 lime
kosher salt

Rub the lime around the rim of the glass then dunk the glass in the salt. Fill the glass with ice and add hot sauce, Maggi and Wosterchire and lime juice. Add enough beer to fill the glass. Mix. Shrimp garnish optional and not recommended.
