I'm not much of a drinker but I just wanted to say that it really sounds romantic and I hope you two have a really special night. I can't imagine what it's like to have your hubby away from home so much. It must be really hard.

thank you NeCee...i have gotten used to it by now...he's been to iraq for over a year and then he went down to n.o. two days before hurricane katrina hit and stayed down there for a year-he still does missions out there when he is not offshore. Then he is gone half of the month in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico . when we were first married and he would have to go to weekend guard drill OMG you would have thought the world was coming to an end!!!:rolleyes: But sometimes I like to have all of this me-time-i don't have to shave or wear make-up and i can run around in my robe with crazy bed-head!!! i watch romantic movies and me and my daughters do girly-stuff till daddy gets home- then they morph into little boys-watching nascar and wrestling and boxing with their daddy and being little hooligans!!!

WOW what a great evening you're going to have. Sure wish my husband would go away so I could miss him...LOL
Personally I like just a simple beer. Bud Light, Miller Lite. I don't like to just sit and have a beer, but I love it with food, even chocolate. I usually wait and have one when we go out for supper on the weekends. Love those frosted mugs..:p

If you want a variety, I would start off with a nice bottle of champagne and have a toast before dinner. Then with your appetizer or salad have a nice bottle of white wine and with dinner have a nice bottle of red wine and then with desert have a nice after-dinner drink like a White Russian or MudSlide or something. That would be fun! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Man if I drank all those different drinks not only would I be trashed, but I'd have one hell of a hang over.
Okay mixed drinks are my specialty, mine are super strong & taste awesome. My current drink right now is an Absolute Sea Breeze, I also love the Rum Runner
Absolute Sea Breeze
-Fill almost half the glass with Absolute Citron (or another citrus vodka)
-Fill rest of the way with Pinapple
-Splash of Cranberry on top
Not sure how to make a Rum Runner if anyone knows please post the recipe.
-I also make a Killer Fuzzy Navel, Bicardi Lemonade, & Dream Sicle

Sounds like a really special time! I really like strawberry daquiris. I make them homeade all the time. You just buy the mix at walmart or a liquor store, add tequila and ice. Put it in a blender and blend it up! Very good. But watch out because by the time that you get through a couple of drinks, you start adding more of the tequila :D

Hubby and I are BIG wine fans. I'm just the opposite of you...I can drink wine all night long, but if I have a mixed drink, I'm out before the count! :rolleyes: Oh, and dom perignon, who wouldn't like that stuff?! :p :p :p I would NEVER spend that much money on a bottle of champagne, though.

Ok, here is the recipe for Chicken Enchiladas:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup chopped onion
2 tbs butter
1 can green chilies
8 oz package of cream cheese
Shredded "Mexican" cheese -- 1/2 cheddar, 1/2 monteray jack
Salsa
1 cup heavy whipping cream
about 10 CORN (NOT FLOUR) tortillas (Flour tortillas will get very soggy and gross)
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. boil chicken until no longer pink
3. chop chicken into very small pieces or shred the chicken into fine pieces (I like to chop it up in the food processor)
4. Saute onions in butter in a small saucepan until golden brown
5. Add green chilies and cream cheese to onions. Stir together on low heat until cream cheese is melted
6. In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese mixture and chicken. Do not add all the chicken at once. Slowly mix it in until you have the desired consistency. Some people like more chicken and less cream cheese. I, on the other hand, prefer a more creamy filling with more cream cheese and less chicken. It is to your discretion, however.
7. Fill tortillas with cream cheese/chicken mixture. Before rolling the tortillas up, add about a teaspoon of salsa and some shredded cheese to the top of the chicken. Then roll and place rolled side down in a greesed glass casserole dish.
8. Sprinkle more shredded cheese on top of the tortillas.
9. Drizzle heavy cream on top of all the tortialls.
10. Cover with tin foil.
11. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
12. ENJOY!

You can do "Flautas " too.....
Chicken shredded
Sour cream
Corn Tortillas
Season all
Grab your frying pan... add a cup of oil or EVOO heat up to med high heat... Grab your tortillas and warm up in microwave... once you have cooked and shredded your chicken start to roll your tortillas stuffed with chicken... you can use toothpicks to keep them together... add one rolled up tortilla into the oil bottom down so it wont come undone and roll it around in oil til crisp.... have a plate ready with a napkin to soak excess oil... once cooked.... plate them and add sour cream on top... VOILA!

Guacamole Recipe to go with "FLAUTAS"
1 Hass LARGE Avocado (if they only have small ones use 2)

Salt
Cut your avocado in half and scoop it unto a bowl.. Grab your onion and tomato and chop unto small pieces.. Micx into your already smashed avocado bowl mix together add salt to taste and squeeze a lemon or lime unto it..taste and you might add a bit more salt...

Well, I'm not much on mixed drinks unless it's a marguerita - Jose is my BEST friend :D Otherwise, I'm drinking either Miller Lite or Bud Select. I make my margueritas the following way:
1 can frozen Lime-ade
1/4 can tequilla (use CLEAR tequilla - gold is for sippin')
ice
1 - 2 tablespoons confectioners sugar
put in blender and crush away - really easy and simple and makes one blender full, or about 4 drinks depening on glass size you serve it in!!
I don't put salt on my glass as I don't like it but I do have salt for hubby and friends that want it.

Nope, haven't tried that. If I do, I'll definitely give you a report and if you try it, let me know. On the triple-sec, if I have it, I use it but if I don't, I really don't miss it. I use the sugar to "cut" some of the tartness of the drink. I prefer mine over ice when I'm at a restaurant but if I make them at home, I always make frozen - hmm - wonder why??? No rhyme or reason, just do. I'll have to try mine on the rocks next time I make some. Oh, and one of my all time fav songs - "Jose Cuervo, You Are A Friend of Mind" by, I think, Shelly West. Now I'm gonna be singing that tune in my head all day :p

I'll try anything once!!it's sounding pretty good to me but the beer part is throwing me off but i love corona so can't complain!!!gosh i'm glad my mil is watching the kids cuz i think we are going to be DRUNK!!!

My MIL gave me this recipe and it threw me off a little too at first, but after I tried it, I didn't give it a second thought. You can't even taste the beer. I think it balances the margs out and makes them not so sweet. I don't like margs that are super sweet and I think that is what the beer does.

do we have any vodka drinkers out there? my favs are Vox, Grey Goose, and absolut -if it's flavored-and my hubby likes stoli too-i am buying the the blueberry stoli tomorrow it's finally in the albertson's-cheapest place to buy hard liquor.
Been on a big vodka kick lately. Try Raspberry stoli & lemonade, make the lemonade strong & add a bit of suger. Chill overnight
To improve strawberry magaritas use Jose, regular strawberry margarita mix, then add a tablespoon or two of strawberry jam blend well.
Wine: I'm a cheap wine girl, I love turning leaf chardonnay or pinot gricio (sp), the ecco domani pinot gricio is also nice. Not a red wine drinker.

Blueberry is a little tougher. I'd try it with sprite.
I also think it might be good if you mixed it with a mixed berry punch or raspberry koolaid.
Something that might be good is Blueberry stoli, raspberry stoli, strawberry stoli, mix together add splash of cranberry & sprite & then you have a berry drink that with mess you up.
Blueberry with ice cream & milk, topped with whipped cream
Disclaimer: I've never tried any of these things I'm just trying to think of what might be good. Make in small doses then try.

Mix together the minute maid, beer, and sprite and tequila to taste. Put in the freezer until frozen. It doesn't freeze all the way because of the alcohol, but it makes it all slushy and yummy! This is seriously THE BEST Margarita Recipe! YUMMY!

oh it's so good...you put one or two shots of vodky-i use the ruby red flavored kind in a glass on top of ice then fill it when ruby red grapefruit juice-you can use reg. grapefruit juice too and shake it up to get it really cold and pour it into a salt-rimmed glass-my new salt of the month(i love salty) is kosher salt-it tastes delicious and you don't have to use nearly as much as you do table salt. they might be called something else but we have always called them salty dogs around here.:D :D :D

They have strawberry in the smirnoff kind. Blueberries & cream would be good.
To top off the drunk fruit coppler add a little vanilla stoli too.

You got it I am the mixed drink queen. I just have never gotten a taste for beer & I found out in college I had a talent for making excellent tasting drinks that would mess you up in a hurry.

I"m a LUSH!!!:p And I've worked bartending and catering so I can give you all kinds of ideas...
Stoli is my favorite, and the blueberry is awsome. Some fresh blueberries, Stoli and ice is very efficient! You can also make a Blueberry Mojito (I think someone posted a recipe above) just use blueberries instead of limes.
Something else that is romantic and delicious is a Chocolate Martini. You can Google it and get tons or ideas, but my favorite is...
Equal parts Godiva Chocolate Liquour and Vanilla Stoli and a generous splash of Kahlua. Shake over ice until well chilled, pour into a martini glass, and BAM!!!!! Swirling some Hershey's syrup in the glass before you pour makes for a nice presentation as well as some chocolate shavings sprinkled on top...
Champagne and strawberries is also a good romantic libation. If you want French Champagne Moet Chandon White Star is one of my favorites and it isn't that expensive. (Around $40 a bottle here in Jersey.) But something that is just as good and about half the price is Chandon Sparkling Wine (the Reserve with the black lable is my favorite). It is made by the same people using the same method, but can't be labled as Champagne because it doesn't come from the Champagne region of France. Since there is no import tax, it's a lot cheaper, too!
Have fun!!!:heart:

If you mix pucker with zyma you get a very tasty very alcholic drink. It makes the pucker not quite as sweet & makes zyma taste like something.
