and I have an RV and have travelled to your area in the past; however, my
travels now take me to Switzerland (by air!) where my youngest daughter lives.
In fact, I will be leaving around March 23rd or so…..maybe sooner…….to
stay with her for 3 months.  She is due to have her 2nd child the end of
March or so and I will be playing “grandma” for a couple or three 
months, returning in June.  We plan to sneak in a trip to Italy while we
are in the area…..I will have my laptop with me and will keep in
touch. 

 

Thanks again for the invite!

RE: [ranchos] Lent and Capirotada Time

Wouldn’t that be nice, to be able to gather together for special moments
the Ranchos families.

 

I invite anyone who is in the Northern California Bay Area, that
when your travels bring you this way, please let me know and you can be our
guests in our home. My husband Juan and I love to entertain and love to have
family over, the more the merrier. We will cook whatever is in season and
share a meal.

[ranchos] Lent and Capirotada Time

Well it is that time again…………time to do your
shopping and get ready for Capirotada. Tomorrow is fat Tuesday as they say
in New Orleans but for “nosotros los Mexicanos” it is time to prepare for
Ash Wednesday. Not only do we prepare capirotada but we begin to prepare all
the other lenten meals which means meatless pero muy sabroso.

 

Today we purchased el pan bolillo at the panaderia La Sonorense.
Tomorrow we slice the bread lengthwise and toast it in the oven. Hubby diced
all the dried fruit today to use for the capirotada. He shelled the peanuts
and will toast them tomorrow. He went to Supermercado Mexico today and
purchased Canela, piloncillo, tomatillos, queso Oaxaca and we will be ready
to roll tomorrow.

 

For the rest of the meal we bought nopales, dried favas which in
spanish are habas and the dried, powdered shrimp. We will make tortas de
camaron con nopales en mole rojo. We will shell and clean the favas and boil
until soft, then will saute with chopped onions, minced garlic and diced
fresh tomatoes. In the morning we have one very light breakfast as this is a
day of fasting which means you have lighter than usual meals. For lunch we
will have the favas and for late afternoon the tortas de camaron
con nopales y mole rojo. Will have the family over in the late afternoon to
share a meal and a prayer and then off to church for Ash Wednesday.

 

These are my family’s traditions from Tlachichila Zacatecas.

My Zacatecan grandmother used to make capirotada and atole. I didn’t
like them as a child, now that she’s dead, I can’t tell her how much I
enjoy my heritage that she gave me. Marge:)

I know that our first and foremost task as a Ranchos member is the research of our families, but I think it would be interesting to look at the various family customs/traditions that have been passed down through the generations, including the different foods and their variations.  Is anyone else interested?
