The Best Guacamole around!!!!

Guacamole hasn't always been my favorite, I do enjoy it but usually when my brother or someone I know makes it. There are very few, well actually let me rephrase that there is only one place that can make it and make it GREAT. The restaurant is named CAFE MAYA, the food there all together is great but, I must say if your a lover of good guacamole, and margarita's this is without a shadow of doubt the place. They also have a Mariachi band that plays music while you dine. They currently have 2 locations one in Fishkill NY and the other in Wappingers Falls NY, they also cater food for any occasion.

My Pacifica

2 years ago when I became pregnant I decided I needed a bigger car, I had a Alero which had been through the mill and then some. I set out on a quest to purchase a used larger car, with gas prices on the rise my dream truck the Escalade was not an option. I contemplated on a mini van but I just was not ready to become "The soccer mom", even though I had a teen who played soccer, even though the mini van had everything I was looking for in regards to space, easy access, and trunk room I still was not willing to budge. So finally after several weeks I saw the Chrysler Pacifica and fell in love, this one was fully loaded, nice color, roomy and the price was right. So needless to say I purchased it and it only took me 3 months to realize I would HATE it. Don't get me wrong it drives great, has more room than the Alero because of the 3rd row seating. My problem with the car is the trunk room, it's horrible I had to downsize my toddlers stroller because her old one would not fit without putting down the 3rd row seat. If I go on vacation with the children that is in driving distance, well I better hope they don't want to bring any girlfriends because I'm sorry guys but there simply just isn't any room for luggage and extra people. So if your looking into purchasing this vehicle I would suggest you consider all aspects of your life. If you have more than 2 children and need a lot of trunk room this car may not be the one for you. Do your shopping and always remember to role play your life when making a decision on a car. As for me I'm looking into another Vehicle, I haven't decided which one As of yet but I will tell you this trunk space is right up there on the list next to safety ;-)





SO I'm rating the Chrysler Pacifica as NOT
