Margaritaville

I realize that I haven't posted anything on here for quite a while, and am aware that the two people who actually read this blog must be wondering what's happened to me. Well, I'll get to that, but before I do I thought I would share with you all my personal recipe for my favorite summer drink - margaritas!

Ingredients:
2 oz. good tequila ( I prefer Sauza Hornitos)
1 oz. triple sec (or Cointreau, if you have the $)
1 oz. Midori melon liqueur
fresh lime juice (key limes are great if you can find them)
4 oz. margarita mix

Directions:
Fill a shaker with ice and add all ingredients. Shake vigorously and strain into a margarita glass (or whatever you can find). Enjoy!

HMS Defiant said...: I know the feeling. I spent a whole week with my daughter and didn't have much time for anything associated with computers. 6 year olds and their cousins and San Diego just turn out to be an excellent alternative to blogging. Legoland, SeaWorld, the Cove, the Cove, The Cove, The Cove, Moonlight Beach, Robertos, Robertos. Yep. It was grand.; August 10, 2009 at 10:27 PM
Doctor Eric said...: I find that Patron Citronge is smoother and sweeter than Cointreau (or any other Triple Sec or similar product). You can easily drink it neat.
I've never tried the Midori variation, sounds tasty.; September 14, 2009 at 10:55 PM

About Me

I was born in Atlanta and grew up in Virginia Beach. Since I'd wanted to be a Marine since age 10, I enlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve after high school and attended Wheaton College, graduating in 1994 with a degree in Graphic Design. Having completed OCS, I was commissioned as an active duty Marine Corps artillery officer in 1994 and served with 1st Battalion, 11th Marines at Camp Pendleton, CA. I completed two West Pacific deployments before leaving the Corps in the fall of 1999. I stayed in the Reserves and eventually assumed command of an artillery battery (Oscar Btry, 5/14) in Seal Beach, CA in 2001. I returned to active duty in April 2002 and served in several staff positions at both Marine Corps Forces, Atlantic (Norfolk, VA) and Marine Corps Forces, Europe (Stuttgart, GE). While in Germany, I deployed again to the Republic of Georgia as the XO of a task force training the Georgian 23d Battalion for duty in Iraq.

In the spring of 2004, before we left for Germany, I felt the Lord calling me to ministry. After praying about it, my wife and I both felt strongly that the Lord was leading me to serve as a military chaplain. In pursuit of this goal, I resigned my commission in the Marines in May 2006 and entered the Army's chaplain candidate program. I enrolled at Bethel Seminary San Diego that fall, and received my Master of Divinity degree in June 2010. Around the same time, I was ordained as a minister in the Baptist General Conference (BGC). After serving as a chaplain candidate in the California National Guard for several years, I became a full-fledged chaplain in June 2011. I recently deployed with an aviation unit from the Rhode Island National Guard. I am currently pursuing other ministry opportunities while hoping that one day I will eventually return to active duty as a Navy chaplain.

I've been married to my beautiful wife Tamara since May 2001, and we have two wonderful children - Rachel (10) and Dash (7).
