there is a first time for everything.
I got my first bike at 7.
My first movie theatre experience without my parents at 12.
My first apartment at 23.
My first kiss? A lady never kisses and tells
Last night marks another first in my life.
After 30 years, I can proudly say I’ve eaten a tamale!
Yes, dear readers. I have lived my life in deprivation all these years. But last week, BGP just happened to swing by a mom-and-pop grocery shop and picked up a couple of tamales to snack on. She happily shared one with me, in disbelief that I had never eaten a tamale before!
And now I can proudly say I have eaten a tamale! And it was goooood!
The soft yummy corn masa seemed to melt in my mouth… the chicken, so tender… the spices, just enough to add a little heat in my mouth.
Aaaahhhh….






I’ve always wanted to try a tamale. Now you make me want to go try one.
