WELCOME TO: TAMALES 101

Yay! She's finally of age that we can begin to employ her under the Holiday Child Labor Rule.

What? Didn't your parents?

So, on the second day of her visit, The Mema began to pass on the not-s0-secret secret family recipes and techniques for making the perfect batch of tamales (sans the usual Texas-style Bambi homicides).

We used pork instead. They don't have doe eyes.

And within minutes, she had Saia embarrando like your Tia Maria. (Oh, come on, everyone's got one.)

And before we knew it, we had 8 dozen, and even a couple with pazas (yu-huh-me-he!!).

Oops...now we're down to 7 dozen.

Mmmm...can't you just smell them?

Um...okay, now it's only 6...

Oh, you know how this goes.
