Cinco de Mayo Street Celebration in Sacramento

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

One of Dumbworld’s  favorite holidays has to be Cinco de Mayo.  Not much compares to sitting on Ernesto’s patio with a pitcher of top-shelf margaritas.  The Bee’s Bob Shallit has details on the city’s plans for a Cinco de Mayo celebration.

First it was a street closure for a New Year’s Eve ball drop in downtown Sacramento.

Last month, another street was blocked off for a St. Paddy’s Day party.

Next up: a Cinco de Mayo celebration that will shut down parts of two midtown blocks for an outdoor party.

What the heezGreat Marketing or Dumb Idea?  I vote for great marketing. 

If you’re salivating for a chance to marinate yourself in flame-broiled flavor, relax: The experience can be yours for just $3.99 (off the firemeetsdesire.com website– check it and spray the flame to see the king on a bearskin rug).

Just writing this post will probably get me into a Burger King in the next couple of weeks.  I’m such a mark.  I wonder if you can pick it up anywhere in Sacramento.

Tapa the World's Sangria Recipe

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

Described as “fruit punch” for adults, Sangria is a great refreshing drink.  Tapa the World in midtown Sacramento has some of my favorite– see their recipe here.

I have a super-secret recipe for my own– Ghetto Sangria.  Maybe one of these days I will post my own, but until then, enjoy.
