We celebrated my beautiful, wonderful, lovely sister Anna‘s 37th birthday last night with a Mexican Feast. Anna has asked for Mexican for the past several birthdays and each year we wonder why we don’t have it more often at the Cape. It was a dreamily wonderful night with excellent food, (almost labor-inducing) laughter, Cape family, best neighbors and a good friend we should really see more of.

I was too busy with cake-making and beach-going to take notes on how things were made. I invite my friends and family to post their recipes in the comments section.
