CAPIROTADA. TAMALES, ESOTERIC GRAFFITI AND MORE!

Hola mis queridos Latinopians. Your Tia Tenopia here and I can’t believe my eyes–December is already on us! I’m barely getting over Thanksgiving–hay como comi! Well, talking about food this is the month for great Mexican dishes like posole, tamales, champurrada and tamales. So this week, to give you all a headstart on your holiday comidas, in our videos this week we visit with Diana Velarde Hernández in her Cocina Hernández for recipes on  two classic Holiday dishes, tamales and capirotada. Check out these cool recipes and you can start planning for your holiday meals. After you watch the video on the tamalda you may be inspired to get your friends together and spend a day with your elbows deep in masa and chile colorado.

Also this week Harry Gamboa Jr. returns with his monthly blog, this one is all about literary graffiti–you didn’t know there was such a thing? Well check out what Harry does with his poetics of wall writing.

Sergio Hernández returns with two new Arnie and Porfi cartoons, both revolving around Thanksgiving and Black Friday. As always Sergio brings humor to our daily travails. And don’t miss Angela Ortiz’s Photo of the Week. This week she offers us a look at natural “Simplicity.”

Enjoy this week on Latinopia!
