posole

After a while I have to start preaching and when I preach its all about chile. I am so damn fickle that when my buddy gives me some powdered from New Mexico I cant help but complain that its over roasted. I sent some super fresh stuff to a guy in michigan and I know it was good because I have several bags my self, although that oregano was darn strong - strong. Whats my point? Chile. I always revert back to chile.

The birthday went well and people stopped by that were unexpected and it all turned out real nice. We ate such a cacophany of flavors that it seemed like an excessive post.

this was the menu
