Taco Salad

Quarantine supper tonite... Live from NYC... Today was a HOT one... 97°F on the thermometer... outside in the sun it was well over 100°F... short trips out on the deck to check on the babies in the greenhouse and back into the AC to avoid overheating... everyone survived the heat no problem... except of course the power grid... 8:07pm... pop... lights go out and the hubs and I look at each other... not again... last Monday same thing happened... called the power company immediately and reported the outage but this time we were ready and hooked up the generator within two hours to keep the food cold, run a small fan and one lamp. By 11:10 pm power was restored and we undid our noisy set up... the hubs showered and went right to bed. Whew... lucky this time for sure... Supper tonite was make your own vegetarian taco salad (YAY for another meatless Monday) with chopped romaine, tomatoes, dark red kidney beans, shredded nacho cheese mix, homemade guacamole, mango peach salsa, crema and Street corn taco shells... it was cool and bright with lots of lime juice in the guacamole and additional lime wedges to squeeze over the top... we finished just in time before the power failed... How was your day? What's on your plate? Thoughts?
