Sometimes I crack myself up.  LOL.  *SIGH* 

Okay so, to get him back for every wrong he’s done towards me, I just signed Israel Ramos up for a salsa-making contest that will take place at the public library on Cinco de Mayo.  He is so not the type that would want to celebrate Cinco de Mayo at a U.P. public library with a crowd of yooper strangers.  HAHAHA!  But, I think he’ll do it.  He may not be excited to do it, but he’ll do it because he loves me.  I’m hoping that he will be able to represent his people (including his 3 boys) and take home the title of winning salsa.  Who knows, maybe this will be the tipping point for all of his culinary endeavors!  It may start with a corner salsa stand, then grow to a store front.  For all we know, he may become known as the U.P. Salsa Grand Master…. 

But in all seriousness, I’m hoping it will be a fun & special family memory and that it will instill in our boys the importance of Cinco de Mayo, and that contrary to popular belief, it is not synonymous to Mexican Independence Day. 

All our local yoopie friends should come too!

By faith, I will only have good things to report on Thursday evening…

PS:  This is what happens when Israel leaves me for a few days.  (He’s downstate for CAMPUS meetings.)  Too much time on my hands!  🙂
