I already love this thread! I am such a foodie!

One of my favorite meals is Chicken Mole. It brings back memories of sitting at a small kitchen table covered in a curtain as a "table cloth" watching my Abuelita stir the Mole sauce in a large pot. I still request it from my mother on my birthday. I smother the chicken and arroz a la mexicana with the sauce.

My Abuelita is having me learn how to make tamales this Christmas. She said she refuses to leave this earth without her grandaughter having the recipe. I usually help her make them but this time I will be doing the cooking. I told her I do not want to learn if this means she is leaving me! I don't think I have a choice!
