When I was growing up Tuesday was our Taco night. We even had special bowls for each of the ingredients. We had four bowls, one for the taco meat (ground beef), lettuce, tomato and cheese. We also had salsa and sour cream. We put it all on the table and we each made our taco the way we liked it, lots of sour cream for me.
Last Friday was our first Family Taco night. I made our tacos in the kitchen, I can just see the mess if I let the girls make their own taco at the table. We all had grape tomatoes (cut in half), lettuce, and shredded cheese. The girls and I also added sour cream. The girls were so excited for our taco night and can't wait for next Friday to do it again. I have made soft taco (really burritos) before but this was the first time for them to eat a hard taco shell. They really loved it and each ate two tacos.

We did not have taco night growing up. But we do now. Both my hubby and me and the family I grew up with. :-) And we don't have a specific taco night, but we do have one about once a week. This week it was on Tuesday.
