Where are all the tamales?? Growing up in a Hispanic family, my mom would always make home made tamales for Christmas. Man I remember all of the smells that would come from that old kitchen...boy what I would give to be back there again. It would take us two days of just preparing and than an entire day to make and cook those delicious bad boys. Well I guess the only thing I can do is go to my favorite Mexican food restaurant...watch out Mucho Gracias, here I come!!
