Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos. Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry.

Rice Krispies Treats but cover them in chocolate and sprinkles!

My son recently ate some Rice Krispies for breakfast on vacation and loved them. At home I bought a box and did he want to eat them? No, he didn't. What to do, besides make everyone eat the cereal?

These are simple to whip up and don't involve baking, just the stove to melt the butter and marshmallows.

I found the recipe on Dessertsanddrinks.com. Since I didn't make any adjustments, you can find it here.
