Vincent's Sunday Surprise Beverage Bonanza

Howdy Dudes and Dudettes of Texas!

Today's Sunday Surprise Beverage is Make - Your - Own - Beverage Day! I've got lots of Large Boxes full of drink making ingredients stacked up right here and I'm going to beam them directly into the home of every Texan in Texas. Everyone will receive a Large Box and it'll materialize on the table closest to you. With all the drink ingredients in your box you can make Ginger Peach Soda, Apple Cucumber Mint Smoothie and Cherry-Berry Smoothie. There's enough ingredients to make 3 glasses of each drink. You can keep the Instructional Guide CD as my gift to you:

When blending drinks in your blender always add your ice at the end so it doesn't jam up the blender. Also if you've got alcohol in your house and you desire an alcoholic drink just mix your own booze into the beverages.

And today I've included a large container of a dozen Summer Fruit Bruschettas in everyone’s Box. This is your summer fruit bounty turned into delicious bruschettas and maybe the best summer snack around! :)

I hope y'all enjoy today's Sunday Surprise Snack and Beverages Texans. Yeehaw! :)

Thanks a lot Big Tex Dude! My Dad was finally well enough to be discharged from hospital and he returned home yesterday night. On behalf of my family, I’d like to thank everyone in Texas for praying for Dad and keeping our family in your prayers too. Thanks y’all! :)

Hope he feels better

Was your father discharged on an artificial heart?

Yes Dude. The Syncardia Total Artificial Heart is keeping my Dad alive now and he's still waiting for a heart transplant. :(

So... You're not rocking the deuce?

Nope. I don't mind wearing a mask, however they are a bit of a nuisance. Apparently the rest of the store isn't requiring masks but for some reason they're still required at the Pharmacy. Not sure why.

They are probably afraid that you are going to give the pills a case of the clap.

And today I've included 3 large containers filled with

1. Texas Caviar. This is a spicy Texas favorite. Black-eyed peas and black beans marinated in a fiery, flavorful mixture.
2. Homemade Corn Tortilla Chips. They’re crispy and spiced only with salt.
3. Garlic Bagel Chips. These bagel chips are heavy on the garlic and the real Parmesan cheese and Italian herbs give them a hearty flavor for satisfying snacking.

in everyone’s Box.

I hope y'all enjoy today's Sunday Surprise Snack and Beverages Texans. Yeehaw! :)

Hey everyone, we need your thoughts/prayers/wishes for my mother, she had a stroke last night and is currently in the hospital

Are you still confused? Have another taco today and chill! Are you ready for some Saturday Breakfast, still All-Fresh, still All-New? With one Year of Saturday Breakfast In Place under our belt, it is time to kick it into creativity overdrive! Bring out the Drones! The NewTexas Happy Taco Stands, in conjunction with the NewTexas Incendiary Corporation, has approximately 1 trillion of the fastest, lightest drones you have ever seen. This fleet is specially designed to deliver tacos to every man, woman, child, whatever, in Texas, all 2,506,676,000,000 of you.

Today's special breakfast will Saturday Smoked Salmon & Egg Breakfast Tacos [COVID-19 Week LXII Edition]! The Head Chef still has his soccer cleats on for kicking up the humble breakfast taco into the range of haute cuisine. And, once again, it is going to be super simple. The NewTexas Abuelas start by scrambling a boatload of Texas Grade A, farm-fresh, Organic Eggs in ginormous black cast-iron skillets. A minute from being done, they throw in ribbons of super-thinly sliced smoked salmon imported just for you today from our friends in Canada. I quick handful of chopped chives finishes it off. Once again, the whole thing comes together very quickly! No cheese on this delicate little gem, it is simply served up in a fresh homemade flour tortilla made by hand just for you. Remember, a whole egg in every taco!®

Today's Special Salsa is - Salsa Roja - the universal Texas salsa! This is so simple, it is virtually Pico that is cooked down. There is nothing to it really, just ripe red Roma tomatoes, white onions, serranos, cilantro, and salt. The taco is hermetically sealed in a Stay-Warm® pouch that is wrapped in the same ol' aluminum foil we are all so familiar with for our breakfast taco. We are trying to keep it real, peeps. For your beverage accompaniment, a packet of Sanka, Tang and a Lipton Tea bag will be included with every delivery as well as salt and pepper and a napkin. Yes, it is different, but it works and you do not even have to leave your residence. Woo! And, watch out for the drones! Start your day off the right way; munch out and go back to sleep. You know you want to!®

Stay Safe Texas. Stay Well. Hang in there!
