The whole meal--prep, table setting, tamale rolling, and feasting--brought everyone together. Well 5/6. L.Shell was sharing her musical talents to the world. But there was a good majority present. And L. Peters made the corn-tamale mixture, mashing with her bare hands. Kelley did....EVERYTHING. Alex made San Antonio's own guac...without tomatoes...so it was extra divine. I made haasauce. Yeah, I am pretty much limited to salsa, cereal and muffins in the kitchen. And then, Katy was the biggest trooper and did the majority if not all of the dishes. Love her all the more for it.
Overall, the dinner was a great success. And our house, soon to have a more permanent name, will be kicking off a food blog soon! With better photos, I promise.
