The Supermoon of Cinco de Mayo

Cocaine Princess here.

My apologies for the short Friday post. That malevolent being known as The Sandman kept me tossing and turning these past few days. The combination of exhaustion and having a busy week prevented me from posting the next installment of The Idiot Wedding Planner.    

Hopefully you'll enjoy this entry.

Tomorrow 2 major events will occur: The Supermoon and Cinco de Mayo.

THE SUPERMOON 
If the skies are clear tomorrow when you look up you'll see a spectacular and magnificent sight---the full moon but this isn't just any ordinary full moon, it's The Supermoon. The Supermoon is when the Moon will reach perigee — the point at which the Moon’s elliptical orbit puts it as close as it ever gets to Earth. This results in a "Supermoon" and the moon will appear 14% bigger and 30% brighter-- it will be the BIGGEST and most BRIGHTEST full moon of the year.


CINCO DE MAYO
Cinco de Mayo, a day of Mexican heritage and pride that commemorates the Mexican army’s victory at the Battle of Puebla during the French-Mexican War in 1862.
But hardly anyone cares about the historical significance, it's all about the drinking, right?

"Perfect Cuervo Margarita"

INGREDIENTS:

1 ounce José Cuervo Especial

3 ounce José Cuervo Lime Margarita Mix

1 wedge lime

1 teaspoon salt 

DIRECTIONS:

Rub rim of a chilled margarita glass with half a lime.

Dip into salt to coat.

In a shaker with ice, add José Cuervo Especial and José Cuervo Lime Margarita Mix.

Shake vigorously.

Strain into the margarita glass.

To all you Sky-Watchers out there, what could be better than throwing down a warm blanket on the lawn and being with that special someone as The Supermoon glows ever so brightly above you.

My loyal and dear readers, it's finally Friday. Salud! 

Whatever your plans are have a luminous first weekend of May. ~x

XOXOXOXO,
