Nothing says Thanksgiving and bringing in a good harvest like ordering a giant plate of nachos at a full-blown Mexican restaurant. So, I give thanks to the waiter for telling me not to touch the hot plate while wearing oven mitts... and then immediately touching the hot plate. I give thanks to the chef that must have used a shovel like a scalpel when creating this heaping masterpiece of food. Seriously, pound for pound this platter could take down Manny Pacquiao in one round. I give thanks to the decorative sour cream which brings some much needed attention to this unsung nacho hero. I give thanks to the gaggle of girls sitting next to me that looked into my eyes like I was about to make the biggest mistake of my life for ordering this entree (yes, this was my meal). They made me realize how important my work really is. I also give thanks to the seasoned cow (not chicken) that made this platter all it could be. From the plate up, every ingredient tasted a little better at Las Margaritas.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to finish. But no one man could.
