I'm just your imagination
I always thought that they just called it a blue moon because there were two full moons in one month. As in, it happens once in a blue moon!Originally Posted by RICHARD
I just went out to get the newspaper and the moon is huge in the sky!And it is really a light blue!!!!
We would have menudo and tamales, home made! I really do miss that-the food is labor intensive, so you have to find a 'crew' to help prep the meal!
I see pork is a huge part of the NYD festivities!
Thanks for the pics!!
No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

When I went out this morning, it was nice, full and giantly BLUE. I have a cheapo camera, and the zoom just added to the tale!
Mexican food!
how's about some beans and rice too? LOL, I have become quite adept at making tortillas too!
I found this wonderful recipe on the interweb.......I used to make them without the boiling water, instead using just tap water.....the hot water makes the ingredients easier to mix and makes a softer tortilla.
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3 cups of flour
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/2 cup of solidified pork drippings, or bacon grease or pork lard
2 cups of boiling water
Directions:
In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients except the water. Use your fingers to mix in the lard. Adding water a little at a time, mix the flour with a large spoon. Sprinkle some flour on a cutting board or on a hard flat surface. Transfer dough to the board and knead until the dough is no longer sticky. Add more flour if necessary. Now make the balls (the larger the balls, the larger the tortillas). Put all the balls backing into the mixing bowl, and let them sit for about 10 minutes or so.
Sprinkle some flour on the cutting board. Flatten the balls with the palm of your hand. Using the rolling pin, roll out from the center and keep rotating until they are as fat or as thin as you want them to be.
Transfer the tortillas to a medium-hot griddle and cook them until bubbles form, less than a minute. Flip over to cook the other side. Keep tortillas warm under a towel or a tortilla warmer until they are ready to eat. Make sure you sneak one and put some butter on it and eat it in three bites.

Hope you get a chance to try them.....it takes a few tries to get it right, but well worth the practice.

I would love to be out your way where they have the GOOD Mexican food! I'll have to try that tortilla recipe. We made them once, but they seemed a bit heavy, so we'll have to practice some more.
LOVE beans & rice!

Hi, just checking in. I'm still here at work even though everyone else left at Noon. Backup tapes won't eject......
So, on that note could I please have a tall BM with the fixin's. Ta, Richard.
I'll check back later.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

What are you having?
THE HOUSE OF ORANGE
I am preparing some shrimp in lots and lots of garlic. You saute them just until pink. Then they will be placed on top of a risotto with mushrooms.
And of course, some champagne to wash all of that down. I am getting hungry.
Ha, Randi, my recipe calls for two glasses on wine - one to add to the shrimp and one to drink.
I will bring enough to the bar for everyone!
And in case I don't get back here in time
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!
Livin' in Parrot Paradise

Happy New Year to my PT friends!
