I'm in CO... And yes orange is but once I gave it some thought I came up with tons of ideas and I think I've got things narrowed down. We will see how it turns out because one of the things I'm going to try I've never done before. Gonna be posting Wednesday since I have the day off. I'm super excited. I told the girls at the gym and all they said was "that sounds fattening" LOL See why I need new friends?

Honestly I wish one of the contestants lived near me, not to violently murder them but so I could have a cooking buddy :(

I've got an idea of what I'm making, I hope I'm not the only one who gets orange or I'll feel weird!

>>5340634
Why! It's fun!
And earth tones again, heh should be an earthy round...

>>5340621
I guess it's not that bad... It's just the foods that are orange are flavors that I don't use often. I'll have to do a lot of thinking for this.
I could just dump some cheetos on a plate :D

I'm pretty stoked for the brioche recipe, I've tried several and didn't like them so I'll give these a shot. Love a good simple cheeseburger on a brioche bun. Yum.

Off to work... this waking up at 6AM stuff is surprisingly easy...

Don't worry, in my tamale vertical I said like "season your beef" even though I made pork tamales..

I love eggs in every form.. I have lots of capers to use up so I'll have to try them in deviled eggs.

Looks good as always Pye

I feel like half the people in the contest are women

Overall Operation mexican picnic was a smashing success. I also got a phone interview for an amazing job after I was done eating it, and got the job today. So maybe it will be lucky for you too :) Now to rest after these exciting two days... Thanks guys!

And the agua fresca vert.

Yeah, tamales aren't very pretty by themselves but they're also just about the most delicious thing you can stuff in your face... LOL
I think it's important to have a really pretty side dish when you make them to make up for the tamales cuz they can be downright butt ugly.

I hope you try to make some of this because it's all soooo good, and particularly the flavors work soooo well together. The creamy salty sweet of the corn cuts the vinegar of the potato salad and the vinegary potato salad gives some bite to the masa in the tamales... And of course the agua fresca is just mild and refreshing enough to wash it all down.

I'm steaming more tamales for myself tonight hehe.

Vertical for the potato salad and elotes

Vertical for tamales... Sorry it's bad but I'm not very good with them yet, and I just had my first day at a new job so I'm pretty tired :)

>>5329119
The tamales are the main entry for me definitely, they take a very long time to slow cook the meat and are a complicated process and I picked the other two side dishes to accent or work with the flavors in the tamales.
And thank you so much, that really means a lot :)

I'm going to work on verticals now for everything, hopefully it'll be easier for me this time lol

Quiche sounds so good. I love mine with bacon and swiss and that's it. Yum.
Also Relph dog is best dog!

AND I just got an awesome new job! BEST DAY EVER
>>5327755
The flavors are all so simple but so delicious you will have no problem making any of it! The tamales take a couple days and can be a hassle if you've never done them but they are sooooo worth it...

I gotta go get some stuff figured out with this new job but I'll make up a vertical tomorrow

>>5327732
Gonna post this pic and one more... This is just a close up after I forgot I was taking pics and took a bite of tamale lol

>>5327725
I'm actually a 3rd gen russian immigrant, white as hell, both parents white, I just grew up in a very hispanic area so the food and culture kinda rubbed off on me lol

>>5327637
I used toooonnns of chili powder in the corn and pork and masa!

I'm doing a phone interview sorry guys hold on

>>5327644
oops.. My dad is an old white dude who barely eats and he ended up eating 3 tamales, 2 ears of corn and 3 scoops of tater salad lol

I'll make a vertical tomorrow :)
