And speaking of eating, I see a comment has been tossed into the comment section asking for my tamale recipe. OK, let’s discuss that a bit.
I have only been able to work a computer for about 5 years now. And what I mean by that is the ability to do useful stuff, (this blog for instance), other than play Diablo. Which by the way is a kick-ass game!
I do enjoy cooking but the most important 4 words I have learned over the years are “Google is my friend!” when I want to cook something, I head straight for google. As far as the tamales go, no, I don’t have a recipe myself, I google up a few and use a different one each time. Usually I only use what I find as a guideline as I cannot ever find all the ingredients they want so I bluff it thru.
Tamale recipies don’t change much ‘cept for the innards. You can do what you want with that. Today it’s pork roast, onions, garlic, jalapeño, black olives, peas, and some spices. The hardest part for me is getting everything to balance out so I have no leftover husks, filling, or dough. But it’s getting better.
Bon aptite!
A.D.600 An early form of whiskey is invented in Ireland by Monks who had travled to the near east to learn the secrets of perfume distillation. Reckoning it is far better to feel great than smell good, they apply the formula to fermented barley and coin the phrase, "Let's get stinkin drunk."

I get the Google thing entirely, Barn. do the same thing myself. Right now planning a big seafood paella party and I have 5 different "Googled" recipes sitting on the counter. Plan to pull the best parts from each one!
