National Margarita Day!

Did you know last Wednesday was National Margarita day?  Well I heard it on the news and instantly changed our meal plans for dinner and took Zack on his first trip to the ABC store...milestone?...no?
I decided to save the baked chicken and roasted potato's for a night that didn't have such and exciting drink.  I even went to the grocery store without coupons and picked up some green tomato's (do you see where I am going with this?) and corn on the cob.  I have wanted to make fried green tomato's FOREVER but I don't like to cook fried food at home...fried food is a treat for when you eat out...let someone else deal with the fry smell and the dirty grease.  Since I was already frying tomato's, I fried my homemade chicken tenders...I usually bake them so I guess my fried chicken can count as a new recipe also.  Why chicken tenders and not chicken legs?  I have an issue with meat on the bone...how I survived in China I will never know.
Anyway the fried tomato's were AWESOME (and totally worth the lingering fry smell).
Oh and the corn on the cob...I roasted them with chili powder and made the dip I found on pinterest.  It is a HONEY CHILI BUTTER...need I say more?
And the inspiration...

the plan was to make a Jalapeno Margarita recipe found here...but I realized that it is really expensive to buy the alcohol separate so I ended up buying the pre made...I figured it would be worth it if I drank on a regular basis...and after the AMAZING nights sleep I got that night I think I may have to be an alcoholic beverage at night kind of girl.

and the biscuits...Pillsbury...if you read the first page of Paula Deen's book that is sitting on my shelf she says don't bother making from scratch.  She put her stamp of approval on Pillsbury's and that is good enough for me!
