It is time again for culinary exploration. Alabama and Alaska are, eaten er…ate? Next on the menu is Arizona. This menu will take from Arizona’s culinary influence from Mexico. Yum. Here is what’s planned :
Arizona Dinner Party – Influence de Mexico
Aqua de Tamarindo
Pumpkin-Cactus and Mole Pollo Enchiladas
Green Salad
Homemade Dulche de Leche Ice Cream
Attire: Ben-Gay; “Citizen” T-Shirt, Orthopedic shoes; sunglasses > Reading: Edward Abby and Susan Sontag > Music: Buck Owens, Meat Puppets; Waylon Jennings; Alice Cooper > Movie: Raising Arizona > People: Geronimo.
Hmm… What am I missing on this menu??

[…] Arizona Dinner Party was nice and mellow. It was a crisp, cool fall night – perfect for some comfort food. Kira, Char, Andy and Kristi came over with beer and sunglasses. We had tamarind soda, pumpkin enchiladas and dulce de leche ice cream. I recommend the Pumpkin Enchiladas from Martha Stewart – easy to make and very tasty. Not to mention seasonally appropriate. However if you want to cook up a bowl of something that tastes worse than puke you can use this “easy mole enchilada” recipe. Blahhh! I had to throw it out. Impressively bad. Char said the ice cream was a “triumph” – and whoa, I’m scared to be alone with the finished product – I will end up fat and sticky with an ice cream headache and still think it was all worth it. Yum. Next up on the Alphabetical-ish culinary road trip is Arkansas. Official national beverage: Milk. Official cooking utensil: Dutch Oven. Unofficially thinking the menu will be Chicken and Dumplings with green salad and Red Velvet Cake. Getting ready for some enchiladas. I forgot to take pics of food and the dinner. who cares? My parents gave me this ice cream maker. It is older than I am but it works like a champ. It also shoots blue sparks and makes the whole house vibrate when it is plugged in. Fun!
