Hmmmm....
I looked around my kitchen last night, and realized something strange...I think we're turning Mexican. (And, ever since I thought, "I think we're turning Mexican," I can't get that "Turning Japanese" song by the Vapors out of my head, even though they aren't really related.)
Now, I don't mean this in a bad way. I just mean that, as I glanced around the kitchen, I realized that our kitchen could (on a teeny, tiny scale) substitute for the Latin foods market (at which we shop...often!) should it go out of business. In the pantry, fridge and freezer we have fresh tortillas and tostada chips, chorizo sausage, asadero cheese, Mexican cookies and pastries, homemade taco seasoning, tequila, a leftover burrito, and salsa. There should be some guacamole, but we're out. The sour cream doesn't count. Still no candy, though. I just can't get behind the Mexican candy.
Other than that, it's apparent to me that the Wilburns have gone native. Except for when it comes to menudo (the soup, not the band). That's a wagon to which I won't be hitching my horse. That is, if I ever get a horse, which is also highly unlikely - but still not as unlikely as my eating menudo.
