home, sweet home...

This is our favorite neighborhood place. We had lived here three years before Ashley happened to introduce it to us at lunch one day. It is about 3 minutes from my house and some of the freshest tasting TexMex I've ever had. Here's what I love about Amigos...

• they make their hot sauce fresh twice a day and I get a large container of it almost every week - it's super fresh & heavy on the lime & cilantro, just the way we like it
• when I get their hot sauce home I eat it with scrambled eggs, I make queso with it & tend to cook fajitas when I have it on hand
• They make the BEST BREAKFAST in the world {weekends only}. We love the beef fajita omelets - they're amazing
• we never feel "heavy" or tired after eating there
• Everybody gets a free appetizer spicy-baby-tostada-thingie.
• Awesome taco salad & great guacamole.
• Their margaritas are strong & taste great. Before 7 pm they're $2.00. On Monday they're $2 all day.
• The waiters know us. The owners' daughter is in our nieces' girl scout troop.
• It's small but bustling spot that has become another "home" to me. It is the first meal I want to eat when I get home from a trip & the one food I really miss while I'm gone.

I was trying to figure out my topic for today at dinner tonight {you know where} & I realized this was it. Do you have a place that feels like home? I was surprised that I've never even taken a picture of or scrapbooked about one of my favorite places.
