Yes, 5 my eye. Cinco de mayo started out quite enjoyable. Cat and I visited friends with a cute newborn. Some friends came over and we enjoyed many fine mojitos. Next we joined some of the wife’s friends for a pleasant dinner at Carnivale. This place is a sight to see; extremely vibrant and alive with Latin flare. The food was fantastic; the wife had braised pork shoulder with plantains and I had pan-seared halibut. The evening wound down to a nice simmer and we found our way to the door around midnight. Next thing I know I am awake at 4:30am with hives on my legs, my throat itching and feeling constricted and my eye looking like this. Must have been a food allergy. Strange thing is everything I consumed that evening I have had before. Benadryl saved the day and by tonight, Sunday night, my eye is finally back to normal.
