I just realized that a Cinder Edna cast photo was posted on FB. Here it is (not linked from FB, though):

Nice, George

It's hard to believe it's 59 degrees in Washington, DC.

You know, of all the things people have been posting over the last twenty-four hours...

The one thing that stands out the most disturbingly...?

Well, I’ll tell you.

It’s vixmom and the enchiladas. Or lack of same. It’s like a major disruption in the Force or something.

I have never eaten an enchilada .  To the best of my knowledge I have never even seen one

You're missing out!  Get thee to a Mexican restaurant!

I am afraid my tastes run more to Taco Bell than authentic

Perhaps when we see Desperate Measures in July, we should have a Mexican dinner after?

YES. No question.

I was trying to remember what my first Mexican food was. No idea, really. But it almost certainly had to be on the order of Taco Bell and the like. And when I was finally taken to a “real” Mexican restaurant? Bliss.

Anyhoo...  It seems there’s been a lot of talk about Porgy and Bess lately, in Facebook groups and whatnot, which kind of puts me in the spirit of today’s topic. I do believe a good dose of Gershwin is in order.

Four hours ago a friend put this on her facebook page:

If you haven't seen the new, a volcano erupted not to far away.  At least she isn't in the small village that was in the path of the lava.

Mine was El Nibble Nook in Livonia, Michigan, on a field trip with my high school Spanish Club.  Silly name, but great authentic Mexican food.  It’s still in business and there’s now a second location in Bloomfield, Michigan.

DR Elmore, there’s also El Centro at 54th and 9th.  We ate with you there after that rehearsal at the Plaza Hotel several years ago.

I have come to the conclusion that I do not care for mole sauce on my enchiladas.  I prefer Salsa verde but the standard ranchera will do. 

I always order whole beans instead of refried, unless it is black friend beans.  There was a restaurant in Ashland, that sadly closed, and the owner prepared them for me for a special treat.  I was pleasantly surprised.

Playing around with one of the instructors.

Cute...both of you, and the picture! ;D

I'm glad you noted that first, George.  You guys look like you should be hosting a TV dance show!


Edit:  I took out part of that post that might look bad to future generations who study HHW.  :)

DR FJK I am pleased the wedding was lovely.  What is that cake?

Delicious Chocolate Something or Other.  It was so good that everyone seemed to have forgotten that a part had to be saved for the first anniversary.  Since our table was close to the food, it was clear no one thought about that.  Before it got completely devoured, I found Maria and told her it was going fast, and she got right on saving two pieces to freeze for next year.

It was helpful fro f\uture reference to note at some point that Maria's twin sister is 2 inches taller than Maria.  They look so alike. Last night, of course, Maria was the one in the bridal dress, but in general, they are hard to tell apart.
