Norman ConquestNow that looks pretty good. I have a lot of tomatillos coming up wild in the garden from some I've missed when picking over the years. I fry my own chips, too. Menudo is another great Mexican hangover cure. Kinda funny bit of info that I heard on NPR a few years ago when they reported that the US government spent umpteen dollars on a grant for a hangover cure + the scientists "discovered" that there is an enzyme in tripe that opens the blood vessels in the brain to promote blood flow + thus help eliminate hangovers. I said to myself, "that's about right! The Mexicans have known that for years."

Bill/OregonRandy, I highly recommend this, especially if you have tomatillos to use up. Delicious the second morning in a row.

Norman ConquestSeveral years ago, my son worked for TXDOT + had a Mexican helper riding shotgun in his truck. This was back when those "Beanie Babies' were all the craze. His wife collected them (go figure) so when he saw a kiosk on the roadside selling them he stopped to buy her one. His helper wouldn't get out of the truck, just sat there, steaming, mumbling how "his people" were being picked on, etc. My son couldn't figure out why the guy was so pissed, until it dawned on him, then he said, "No, not beaner babies, Beany Babies."

lavacaMy father used to make a great green sauce with tomatillos. Best I ever had. He made it pretty hot.

KenscoGood thread Bill.
Just got back from a week in La Paz, Mexico (Baja). If you are ever there try Paradiso Bakery for breakfast. We went five days in a row. Chilaquiles Verdes, Huevito Toast, Tortilla Espanola, Quesadillas Chamorro con Frijoles Jalisco. I was disappointed that they didn't have Huevos Rancheros, but the rest was awesome.
(I was disappointed La Paz, and the airport in Cabo didn't have my Tequila Almendrado. Found a bottle of it at Total Wines at home. It brought back fond memories of TA & 7up after I got my drivers license and used to take my date to the Jockey Club at the dog track in Juarez. Good times.)
I plan a tequila tasting event for twenty friends in a few months. Could be dangerous.

Bill/OregonKen, thanks for those tips. I don't know if the Jockey Club still exists in Juarez, but hear great things about the Kentucky Club. I have only been in Puerto Palomas a few times. Do expect to visit Puerto Peñasco one of these days. Supposed to be some good chow there.
Viva Villa!

KenscoThe Juarez track stood idle for at least a decade and was then demolished to make way for a technology "district". The only Kentucky Club I knew of in Juarez, back in the 60s, was the Kentucky Club Bar right over the Santa Fe Street bridge from El Paso. All mixed drinks were $0.25. That was always our first stop before hitting our favorite strip club during my college days.
(Bill, you never seem to stay too long in any one place. Do you ever actually unpack your bags?)
