Mom's Finest Moment

Mom coerced me into going out to lunch with her on Saturday because we were both in Springfield at the same time. I really just wanted to get my shit done & go home. But, I felt I should do my daughterly duty. We went to a so-so Mexican joint, El Toro, and sat down for lunch. The waiter came by & asked if we'd like to start off with a beverage. I had already made up my mind to have a beer - it was Saturday, after all. I asked what was on draft while Mom looked startled that I was going to order a beer at 5 til noon. In my world this is completely normal. The waiter went thru the list, none of which were Mexican to my great dismay. I decided on Amberbock.

"Small or large?" asked the waiter.

"Better make it large. It's breakfast."

To d.d. - *CHEERS!* :)

To T: I know! I was shocked & appalled, personally. I'm sure they had bottles, but I wanted one of those giant German-style mugs. For $3, I guess I can cope. Maybe that's why they're only a so-so Mexican restaurant....
