Wonder where we get seeds to grow it. It’s the best. Anything that reduces gas from beans is a positive in my book!

Miss you already, Hans! Thanks so much for hosting and driving us around.

That makes me feel better then that we completed our tamales in four hours. But it was a hectic mad rush!

It’s a lot of work. As a gringa married into a latino family, I learned how to make them with my mother-in-law. It went on for hours and hours and hours: the joke in our family is my experience doing that, and how I finally just quit at Hour 8. I was done. It only makes me appreciate them more.
