We had lunch at the new Mexican restaurant that opened in the local Executive Inn Hotel. Lynna and I both decided that we could write a one line review of this establishment.

"After eating at Las Margaritas we didn't vomit."

That about sums it up this eating experience. The reason we didn't vomit was because our stomach didn't even know we had eaten. The food was about as tasteless and spicy as a bottle of filtered spring water. The salsa was warm at best and surely not as HOT as it should have been. They do not offer free cheese dip either. We sprang for what they call Choriqueso which is cold white cheese dip (it presented more like soup) and Chorizo. It had a pretty good taste, and if it had been hot from the stove or even warm it would probably been very good. The food was totally unremarkable. It had absolutely no taste. It is the Mexican version of Furs Cafeteria only with out all the bell peppers.

Lynna tried out the .... you know those puffy things with cinnamon and honey.... Sopranos.... sombreros.... no.... Sopaipillas, that's it. They serve theirs with honey, whipped cream, chocolate sauce and a cherry. I had the soft serve ice cream in a cone and then I ate Lynna's cherry and tied the stem in a knot with my tongue. Never a dull moment when you lunch with the Warrens. I can't work the remote control for the TV in the bedroom but cherry stems I can do..... I'm not quite right.

Just really, really bad food. Again... except the desert thing. So be warned if you try them out, steer clear.... well... steer clear of everything except the Sopaipillas and ice cream. Oh and the sweet tea. The sweet tea is actually not too bad.

If you are ever visiting Lawton be sure and stop by Elmer Thomas Park and please pay special attention to our cities own homage to the Donner Party Wagon Train. As you can see their faces have already been eaten away. They say that cannibals eat the soft parts first.... What is this really? I think it is supposed to represent pioneers, boomers or maybe sooners I'm not sure which. All I can tell you for sure, as a Christmas display it is one of the more frightening I have ever seen. At the very least these two have got to be the ghosts of Great Plains Christmas Past.

I'm sicker tonight than I was last night. I can't breathe or swallow now. And the pills are really big, I don't know if I can gag them down or not. I hate being sick. I'm not good at it all. My nose is raw and my lips are starting get that blistered feeling.... Crap
