Juvenile dies at King rodeo event: Stokes County EMS

>>>>>

Rusty this is my county! And king is closest town to us - 9 miles

Our weather sunny n low 60s

Cotton- enjoyed the discussion re: eggs in potato salad 6 eggs can be a lot if your making a quart BUT If making a gallon about average

I often make a combo of egg and potato salad Equal parts of eggs/potatoes Add med chop onions & celery & red pepper. Mayo and various spices

Followed the discussion on “authentic” Mexican food.

By whose definition? Various regions in Mexico do the same dish in various ways. What do you each personally define as authentic? Is this the herbs and spices ? the fire? the thickness of the sauce? the sweetness of the sauce ? and with the tortillas how do you define ?

this is just a curiosity of mine I’ve heard people over the years throw the term around that they didn’t like a particular Mexican restaurant because it wasn’t authentic. maybe I’ve never had authentic, so I don’t know. But I lived in Houston a couple years and got Mexican it was great but was it authentic? I don’t know

Exactly, Dolly. I made that point in one of my posts, but not as well as you did. The only thing I can say is when I lived in the bay area, some restaurants “ californized” their food, not just Mexican, but other as well. Although I do miss the Greek, Indian and many other restaurants. I did have to cook my own chicken (or country) fried steak, lol.

Well, I get depressed because I can’t do what I used to be able to do when I was younger.
It’s freezing cold out, and a neighbor had given me a huge cat tree which is just too big to keep. So the top layer would make a perfect warm space for an outside cat. I unscrewed 2 out of 3 things attaching it, but my hands are giving out on the last one. My being left handed doesn’t help, but that never stopped me from doing what I wanted without asking for help.
The last 2 weeks have been a series of things not working as they should. And I have always been one that needed help.

Well that’s my rant for the day. Love you Dolly!
