¡Feliz el Dia de la Battala de Puebla! We all know it's more celebrated in the US than in Mexico. Which is not necessarily incongruous.. The Mexican's victory may have had more effect on our history than theirs. If the French had won the battle, and firmly established themselves in charge of Mexico, it's quite likely they would have sold weapons to the CSA. With a secure supply of high quality armaments and other military materiel, it's possible the Confederacy could have forced the Union into an armistice. We could be 2 countries, instead of one United States. (Some might say we've become that already.)
BTW, I've never developed a taste for Tequila. Years ago, I was at a dinner and tasted some of the higher-end stuff ($100+ a bottle.) It was OK. Though I still like a good Bourbon better. And most restaurant Margaritas are much too sweet. I'm open to trying Tequila again, but I won't pay more than $75. Can anyone recommend a nice, smooth Tequila in that price range?
