According to Food Product Design, new evidence that barbecued meats were enjoyed by royalty and the rich as far back as 700 B.C. The first scientifically documented proof of barbecued meat consumption comes from the tomb of King Midas (730 to 700 B.C.), ruler of an empire that stretched from today’s northern Iraq to central Turkey. In the king’s tomb, pottery food jars were found to contain food residues. These residues were found to be barbecued goat or lamb.

Mother's Day, the 2nd Sunday in May where moms from around the world are celebrated for their endless love and selfless dedication for their family. Moms consistently sacrifice so much for their children, they often forget to take care of themselves. That is why Mother's Day is so important to honor your mother or any woman whose made a difference in your life. We've never gotten too personal on our blog, but all three of us have lost our moms. Mother's Day is bittersweet, being that two of us are Mother's and we want to celebrate being a mom for our own children; but we also miss our moms.

Cinco De Mayo has become very popular and is now celebrated all over the world. You may ask why do we celebrate Cinco De Mayo? The day is observed to commemorate the Mexican's Army victory over the French Empire on May 5, 1862; but as we all know with any holiday, it starts to become more about the fun, food, and liquor!

Although tequila is the traditional Mexican spirit, it can be too harsh on the stomach, and we still have to go to work the next day. Don't worry these cocktails still have excellent flavor and taste close to the originals.
