We were there last night. My sweetie had to have her 'giant turkey leg'. The local 'culture' was in full swing last night before the cold front blew in and scared a bunch of them running for cover.At the Copperas Cove Rabbit Fest. Evidently this is some sort of 'thing' here, tho I didn't see any rabbits of any kind, not fried, bbq'd, live or any other kind., but wife wanted to take in some local 'culture'...

I passed on the food except for some curly fries and lemonade that set me back over $10.
Them carny vendors were making a killin off lemonade and 'large' bottled water. $8 and up for lemonade and $4 ea regular bottle of water. I don't care much for those carnivals but wife does. I spent most of my time watching the softball games and the vendor prices over in that area kept their prices down. Canned Coke/Pepsi was just $1. We did go over and watch/listen to the band, but they spooled it up as soon as the wind picked up. A guy with a guitar playing older C&W took the band's place. Today, it was some Mexican food place in a shopping center. (we were al ittle tired of eating at Lil Tex restaurant)
Carne Guisada. I left the rice and beans.
Sister texted me that 'back home' she dumped 3" of rain out of her Cleveland Tx gage this morning and the power was out yesterday and again this morning. I don't miss any of that but I do miss my family and friends there.

When it comes to Mexican food, yellow cheese is an American thing. Most real Mexican food uses white cheese from goat milk.
I never found any Mexican food that I didn't like.
Unfortunately, Their is more bad than good around here…I never found any Mexican food that I didn't like.
me too. but was only good the 1st time I tasted it, if you know what I mean.
