Hey friends,
I'm going techno-nomadic and quitting my high speed internet, cable tv
and telephone service and working with cell phones, free wifi and skype.
I figure why pay for it when I have free wifi all around me. All the
grocery stores are going wireless and now I can work around town and see
people rather than sitting at home getting fat.

But since I am leaving Comcast who can I use for groups that will allow
a newsreader connection?

Thanks!
Brad

There is no decent Mexican food north of Mazatlan.

Moles originate around Puebla and further south. Tabasco is as close
as you can get to Spanish food using Mexican staples to substitute for
Mediterranean ingredients the Spaniards couldn't get.

Ed,
Let me put the record straight. I am a big fan of Sonoran Style Mexican
Food and hot sauce. I have contributed several original recipes in the 7
or 8 years I have been reading this group. Some call it border food but
as history shows border food had been around for years. The "burrito" or
burro as we call it here in Sonora was documented by Father Kino back in
the 1600s. I mention one story about my brother and I consuming large
amounts of street tacos during a drunken moment in Mexico in our youth
and you are branded for life around here. Or at least booger will never
let us forget.

Welfare Mexicans don't know any better than the Sonoran-style push
cart foods
their grandmother made, using USDA commodities and chiles.

A local Mexican "restaurant" owner was talking about adding some more
complicated entrees to the tacos, tamales, and enchiladas that he
called "traditional"
Mexican cooking.

I dunno how far he got with adding liver and onions to his menu...

It seems to be quite awhile since a recipe was posted.Tex-mex is often
discussed here more often than not. Very dull and boring.,,,and
tasteless.

So all you folks sittin' at the bar, feel free to flame way....<chuckle>

There are only five basic ingredients (other than the awful offal
Mexican peasants eat) in Sonora-style cooking, so, if you'll drop the
infatuation with Sonoran-style, we can get on with Mexican cooking
from south of Mazatlan.

What kind of "Mexican Food" have you ever eaten that wasn't some sort
of antojito?

There are at least 50 ways to make antojitos, and they all amount to
the same thing, a snack made with greasy toasted white corn meal and
something you might not want to eat inside, except you drank several
cervezas or margaritas and have lowered your standards.

You have to excuse Booger, too many peyote excursion trips while on his many
Carnival Cruises.
