Cubby-Blue

Best simple Margarita recipe

This really truly is the easiest, purest, bestest margarita you can make.

Hi guys. 

Still on vacation.
In fact, I'm writing this on September 10th and posting automatically at some point in the...future.

Josh Vitters?
Probably not.

Still on vacation.
How are the Cubs doing?
