Beware of the Jumbo Margarita Cupcake!

Have you been to Serrano's lately?  We haven't been there for quite a while, but Friday night John and I were able to get away for a few hours so we met my parents at Serrano's for dinner.  When we went in, the people working in the front told us to be sure to save room for the new Jumbo Margarita cupcake.  We all kind of smiled and went on to our table.  Multiple times throughout the meal our waiter asked us if we were saving room for their new jumbo margarita cupcake!  We let him know that we would most likely be getting dessert, but it would not be the margarita cupcake.  So, when we were finishing up our dinner, he came by and again ask us if we were about ready for that margarita cupcake.  We told him we didn't want the cupcake, but that we were thinking about something else for dessert.  After assuring us that we would not get drunk from eating the cupcake (seriously, he said that), he left the table, only to come back a few minutes later with a (regular sized) Jumbo margarita cupcake!  He said that he just wanted to show it to us and be sure we didn't want one.  We told him again that we were sure that we did not want the cupcake, but that we would like some fried ice-cream.  He said OK and left.  I seriously expected him to come out with a cupcake for us, but when he returned he actually had our ice-cream for us and didn't mention the Jumbo Margarita Cupcake again!

So, if you want a Jumbo Margarita Cupcake, go to Serrano's.  They obviously want you to try one.  If you do not, be ready to turn it down multiple times!

Luckily the waiter was very nice and outside of the annoying cupcake incident, he did a very good job.  He even asked about the blue shirts we were wearing and when we told him that September is Leukodystrophy awareness month, he told us he would wear a blue shirt for our children.  Whether he will or not, I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure he will be trying to share a Margarita cupcake while he does it!

That's funny because just today someone else was telling me about these. I'm gonna have to go try these.
