Holiday Traditions

@Mizmazzle Ornaments come tomorrow. I do that with the girls while mom takes a rest.

I come from a Mexican family, though most would never guess based on my red hair. May dad is Mexican and I grew up very close to the Mexican side of my family. We always have tamales on Christmas Eve. My grandma would spend days preparing them before our big family party on the 24th. She passed away a couple years ago and it was devastating. But the tamale tradition lives on. Usually I start several weeks before…

@Mizmazzle That’s a great tradition and I bet that it tastes as good as it looks.
Edit: Do you serve them with a salsa verde and do you make that too?

@goosehd many people love tamales with green chili. But I grew up eating them dry with eggs. So that’s how I prefer them.
Morgan, however, makes the best green chili!! That’s usually a fall dish for us so we’ve had it a couple times this season.
From the last batch:

@Mizmazzle I like this tree,

@Mizmazzle It is a teacore. I like the fit of this one. Will wear on Sunday When we all go out for breakfast at Sunflower cafe.
