Most recently, we convened at the Gelpi's lovely home to cook and consume a delightful fiesta of homemade pico, guacamole and chips with Coronoas shots of tequila (for Juan and me — my first in my entire life, late bloomer that I am),
tortilla soup with roasted pepitas — veganized from a recipe my mother got from the Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas — Juan's seitan
mole over herbed rice, homemade
tortillas, and, for dessert, Barbara's apple - oatmeal crisp and my flan.
