The mexican grocery store across the street has the best avacados!

Grinding the cumin, jalapeno, serrano, salt, and lime juice for guacamole.

Tamale ingredients

mmmmm……guacamole

Making the masa dough for tamales!

Soaking the corn husks in hot water so they are nice and pliable to fill with deliciousness.

Master chef filling the tamales. We used a filling of slow roasted beef, pork shoulder, chicken, roasted poblanos, jalapenos and serranos. Oh yeah, and cheese.

Cutting the corn husk to make "string" to tie the end of the tamale.

Final product!

No Mexican night is complete without a margarita! Oh, and a giant tub of lard.
