Tortilla Press Cantina

365 Days of Carol Anne (Learning to Love Myself)

Day 72

I’m feeling anxious tonight. I have a big week ahead starting with pre-op blood tests tomorrow morning. We went to mass tonight and I thanked God for my good news as I walked up the church steps on my way in.

It was a nice day. We both slept in today before heading over to the Tortilla Press Cantina in Pennsauken for our Sunday supper. We love their Family Fajita Night. I felt really bad it was only us and another table in there tonight. I feel bad that we probably won’t be able to make it over next Sunday. If I feel at all well and I can put a scarf or my wig on we’re going. I wish we had a nice independent restaurant in our area. I won’t get all political on you here but if you can afford to you really should make an effort to support the little guys and local businesses. Big corporations will always find a way to get by, small local businesses don’t have the kind of capital to keep going when business is slow.

Okay, it’s almost midnight. I have to go take my Sudafed before I have to start fasting for my blood tests. Thanks for reading.

Love,

~ Carol Anne

Day 58


It’s been a fun day. This late post courtesy of my evening of Tweeting the Oscars. I assure you my fellow Tweeters were much funnier than the actual hosts, though I suspect James Franco may have been a little baked. (okay a lot baked)

But I digress … We had a lovely supper at the Tortilla Press Cantina in Pennsauken tonight. Chef Mark has instituted Family Fajita Night on Sundays. $10.99 per adult for chips & queso, a salad with fantastic ranch dressing, a plate of delicious chicken fajitas, 2 beef tacos, and a dessert of churros with caramel dipping sauce. We had a postcard we received after our very first visit that entitled us to a free appetizer or dessert and even with the very big discount they honored it so we had a second dessert, the oh so yummy cheesecake chimichanga. Dinner rang in at $23.25 for the both of us with sodas and tax. All in all we spent less than $30 for an amazing Mexican supper. I’m lobbying to make this our Sunday dinner spot. *whispers* I don’t think I’ll have to lobby too hard. LOL Tonight’s photo was actually taken by the hubs at dinner with my iPhone.

We stopped at WaWa on the way home where I got a yummy delicious 16oz coffee, which is good. *laughs* I should be awake until tomorrow. While I was fixing my coffee I overheard the hubs talking to the WaWa manager who was ringing up our other purchases. He was telling him how good our dinner was. *laughs*

After we got home and fed the kitties and the fish and the 3 strays we also feed I plopped down to watch the Oscars and the hubs played his video game. I love nights like these. Nights where I’m here, he’s there, the kitties are snoozing fitfully and all is well with the world. I’m so blessed and so grateful for my wonderful life. Sleep easy my babies. Thanks for reading every day I love you all.

(((hugs))) & *smooches* and all that good stuff …

Love,

~ Carol Anne
