Tamales

So the second time we have made tamales. Last time we made meat ones, dark chocolate and peanut, not reccomended, steamed peanuts not yummy, and apricot. Apricot were really yummy! This time we set up to make a lot since they are so yummy and freeze so well. I had this, yes slightly weird, idea to make up some indian spiced meat, there is also peas, green peppers and califlower in the indian mix. They turned out very good. We didn't do many of them since we weren't really sure how they would taste. I wanted to use a garbanzo bean flour but Jack wouldn't like them. We aren't going to get to it today but we are also going to make chocolate ones and some more apricot ones. we also, just to try it, I will have to tell you how these work out, they are cooking right now, scrambled egg, cheese and sausage. We can't do flour breakfast burritos, so we will see if these work, there are only two.
Oh and yes, Layla had to be RIGHT THERE the entire time. Last time they got to help but since Natalie has rotavirus, yes again, though it doesn't seem bad at all, she wasn't allowed in the kitchen and Layla couldn't help. That wasn't cool, but we had been planning this for about a week now and Jack had off, so we kinda had to do it that way.
