The social network that celebrates Latin food
Living in Houston means, among other things, that you live in Tex-Mex country. It also means sweltering heat 9 months out of the year. Luckily, those 2 little facts make a Margarita a necessity. Simple as that. Margaritas are how we quench our thirst and cool down from the heat in…

I live in Houston, also known as Tex-Mex country. You can't drive 2 blocks without spotting some sort of Mexican restaurant. I'll admit I may be exaggerating A BIT, but I promise you, not much.

Admit it. We all have a love affair with fried dough. Doughnuts, beignets, churros, funnel cakes, the little Chinese ones (I don't know the name). I venture to say that every country likely has a version of this marvel. It makes sense, it is mmmm, good!…
