After this past weekend, I need another weekend to recover. While my friend Phil and I didn't win diddly, we did have a blast at The Food Experiment Taco Cookoff this past Sunday.
Team Mad Cows did good--we made our mothers proud, fed our friends well, and ate tacos and beer. It goes without saying, but I couldn't have pulled it off without my assistant, Phil. Thanks for reigning me in when I wanted to buy more supplies, prepping 300 tacos with me, and keeping up the laughter the whole time through.

Big, huge, enormous tortilla-sized thanks goes to my friends who came out to support us: Mark, Alex, Kim, Brittany, Clara, Lord and Mike. You guys were the best beer and taco fetchers and confidence boosters a girl could ask for.
Alex especially, thank you for being the designated photographer. And a big thanks to the friends who threw their support in but couldn't quite make it: Sebastian, Rob, Matt, Lauren, Eshawn and Jennifer.
