When I was with my parents, I spent some times cooking a few special meals with my mom. Working side by side, we were able to have some bonding time. Since they have been living in another state for 2 years, moments like this help us reconnect. We had agreed upon making tamales a few days into my visit. We had all the ingredients and set up a plan to get 'em done by the afternoon. We made at least 45 tamales and shared some with my uncle and his wife. They were just as good as any other batch we've made before. I was tempted to take a couple back with me, but there were hardly any left by the time I had to leave. I haven't tried to make tamales on my own, so I think I'll give it whirl before they visit us in a few months. I don't expect them to come out as delicious as those were, but at least I could try.
