Weekend Chicken Tacos & a Little Taste of Summer Nights

Weekend Chicken Tacos & a Little Taste of Summer Nights

The weather this past weekend was nothing short of perfect.

It was just the right mix of rainy/cold/cozy that we long for every now and again, and warm and breezy with little to no humidity (which is rare for Tennessee). During the rainy parts, we lit candles and cleaned the house while sipping on coffee all day. It was relaxing and calming and felt like exactly what we needed after the week we had.

During the sunny and breezy parts, we either had the windows and doors open or were outside all day. We get weather like this only a few weeks out of the year, during the spring and fall. Most days in Tennessee are hot and humid, so we relish the days where we can open the windows and not feel the sweat beading up after a few minutes.

PJ got the idea to make tacos on Saturday night, complete with homemade salsa and guacamole, and because we know you’ve never had it, we’re just going to tell you: PJ makes the best guacamole. If we could bottle it m and sell it at the store, we would. Since we’re not doing that any time soon, you’re gonna have to take our word for it.

The kiddos were SO INTO the guacamole and salsa making process. They helped us by finishing off the lemons and limes when we were done juicing them, and kept wanting to smell everything we were making. Little brother is big into smells and always makes his way into the kitchen when we’re cooking to tap us and say, “I wanna smell?” and no matter what we’re making or what it smells like, he says, “mmm!!!” every single time and it’s the cutest thing ever.
