Dreamy Stories From the Past
My sister and I spent an afternoon with our Tata, who is 96, and he told us stories about Orange County in the 20s-30s-40s. My favorite was when my great-grandmother sold her homemade tamales to Clara Bow. My Grandma Nica's tamales were famous and to make the masa she would grind her own corn meal on the floor of the kitchen. Tata said no one has been able to recreate her tamales which makes me so sad. Clara Bow was so lucky.

Dreaming of Polka Dots
My friend Mitch loves Polka Dots.
The reason?
She lived in Sevilla and
fell in love with flamenco
and polka dots.
I love this about Mitch so much I am encouraging her little one to have the same love (via gifts in the mail). But don't worry, I'm subtle about it.
