Friday Favorites - Cinco de Mayo

Cinco de Mayo is a week away and I feel a taco binge coming!  Who am I kidding?  We have had tacos 3 out of 5 nights this week! I have been all about the pineapples this spring but now all the cute little cactus decor is popping up and I have to admit I’m a little taken.  I thought I’d share a few of my favorite things I’m thinking would make for a fun Cinco de Mayo!

Cactus Mat

The cactus welcome mat is on sale for $10.49 right now and would make the perfect first stop for the friends you might invite over for tacos!

Last year I grabbed a Te Amo Tacos shirt  and more than likely it will make an appearance again this year.  I do love this little cactus tank from Target too!  How cute would either be with a pair of floral sandals like the ones here (splurge) or here (save).

 Baked Tacos|Tex Mex Queso|Guacamole|Margaritas & More 

Of course the food is always the best part of Cinco de Mayo!  No need to make it fancy, serve some baked tacos or host a taco bar.  All you need to add are your favorite Mexican inspired dips like queso and guac and you have a win!  Of course don’t forget the margaritas!  This recipe looks super easy.  I’m kind of a sucker for sopapilla cheesecake but would definitely have to have friends help me finish it off!

Nothing will make your party more festive than music!  Here is a fun playlist to get your guests in the mood.

If you love the idea of having friends over but are self conscious about your hostess skills, I say there is no better time than Cinco de Mayo!  It is easy to pull together a taco bar and drinks and no one expects a fancy meal.
