#Mtcookbook on a roll! Enchiladas for dinner last night. The sauce could use more heat for husband and I, but that‘s adjustable by adding a hotter chile powder.

We fell in love with the food in NM - couldn‘t find a bad meal if we tried. 😋 The best is anything “Christmas”, with both red & green chile sauces.

LeahBergen I fell in love with the food there, too! And yes to anything served “Christmas” style as I could never decide if I wanted the red or the green sauce. 😆 4w
willaful My husband described being in China that way, that they hadn't learned how to make bad food yet. 4w
Cheshirecat913 Love NM food. I prefer green in general, but red for certain things. But for sure, smoother it all in chile. 😄 4w
mabell I haven‘t made enchiladas in years - this sounds so good! 4w

John Nichols died yesterday. Years ago, I devoured his fiction when I lived in the Southwest. RIP.

Codi returns to Grace,her hometown in Arizona,because her father is struggling with Alzheimer‘s.She falls in love with her first lover Loyd,a Native American man.Codi‘s backstory&Loyd‘s character are well written&there are some beautiful scenes but there is too much going on:environmental issues,the Nicaraguan revolution,Native American culture&overall it reads a bit like a romance novel.I loved that it‘s set in the Southwest.Soft pick

Some books find you at the exact right moment. I have disliked everything by Cather I had ever attempted to read. I put this on my list because it met 1925 for my #192025 challenge. I loved it from the first beautiful phrase. It captures so much beauty and tragic heartache. In the landscape and in mankind. Nuance and realism. Truly a masterpiece. This will affect me for a long time.

Librarybelle Awesome! I need to read Cather. 5mo

“ I wave to Mom where she waits on the porch, flash her a fistful of flowers, and the first smile she's seen since New York.“ I really like this quote because it shows Jayden's growth and appreciation for his new home.

This book is a really beautifully written. It would be really helpful in the classroom and out of the classroom. This book has theme of lo lines and beauty which can be seen with new students or new families that are trying to find their belongingness.

This book is about a little boy who is moving from New York City to New Mexico and really does not want to. He then starts to realize all the beauty surrounding him in his new home. This book uses watercolor and bright colors for it's illustrations.
