yeah no shite .. that's why I complimented him on the first page of the thread. this is a solid contribution. not always the case, as I was saying. carry on.


I wasn't getting on your shite R2R. You're one of the more knowledgable posters on this site. I just thought I'd give my take on why I thought it was worthy of praise. I do think you made a good observation on others being called snobs though. It's BS, and usually by the people who stir up shite everywhere on this site, and if I had to guess, don't really have much in the line of skills to begin with. They just like shite stirring.

Like you say, I support the local economy by buying them from a little lady in town, who, by the way, also makes a damn fine crawfish cornbread.


i normally do the same. the fact that she gets done up in body paint before going out to sell them miiiiight have something to do with my patronage though.

As someone who's made tamales before, nice work And for those interested in trying one thing that is crucial is the lard in the dough. Don't try to low fat your way out of this one or you'll choke on dry tamales.
