A very Merry Christmas to all the Beanies that celebrate it!! It is an annual tradition for my body to give up on me around this time, since I always seem to get sick on Christmas. But, still, the house needs to get cleaned and the tamales need to be made! I hope that you are all safe and happy amongst your family and friends:)

      Thank you! I’m drinking lots of water and taking Vitamin C to keep this cold at bay.

    Christmas tamales! That brings back childhood memories of my grandmother and my mom spending an entire day cooking. Then, they would let me help construct the tamales. My little self felt very accomplished, even if all I did was plop some masa in a banana leaf. 😊

      I’m the sous-chef to my mom, the main chef, so that’s basically what I’m doing every year😅 It’s all good though, we should feel accomplished!

        Indeed! My grandmother was very particular about her tamales, so we pretty much just did what we were told. 😉

      The first time I ever had tamales I didn’t know what all the fuss was about. It wasn’t until I was in my mid-30’s and learned you had to REMOVE the corn husks to find out how yummy they are! hahaa

      Tamales are the best, but also why do we eat so many of them😂 I hope you have a good time and rest as well!
