My First Day On the Blog
Hola. I'd been posting messages on the Lonely Planet Thorn Tree message boards (especially the Mexico Branch and the "Get Stuffed" food Branch) for several years now, as well as maintaining galleries of photos on pbase.com. http://www.pbase.com/panos
We recently moved to the vicinity of Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, México, and it occurred to me that I could consolidate my posts on various subjects, along with photos, all on one blog. So, here I am.
My interests are primarily cooking, especially the regional cuisines on México. What better place to test this out than the foods of Michoacán? Our kitchen is very small, but I'm adapting to it. Today, I hung a gift from a chef-friend, from the archway to "bless" the kitchen.
This being my first blog-day, things are a little sparse here. I hope to be filling out the virtual table before very long.
¡Buen provecho!

Anonymous comments will be accepted only if the commenter adds a nickname so that we may distinguish them from other anonymous contributors. Reasonable criticism of the blog, its author and reviewed restaurants will be accepted and posted, but must be "signed" with a name. (I get to decide what's reasonable.)
Word verification has been turned back on, unfortunately, as the flow of spam has been increasing in the last few days since I removed thie barrier. Discúlpe la molestia.

I discovered your blog yesterday (from who knows where, can't remember) and read it from end to beginning. I am inspired to cook more in my adopted Mexico and be not afraid of mariscos and tamales. Really fine writing and pleasing-to-read recipes. p.s. what in the world is lomo?
ReplyDeleteBienvenidos, Jillian, gracias por tu comentario,
ReplyDelete"Lomo" is loin, as in "lomo de cerdo", pork loin.
(By the way, I haven't looked at this page in several years!)
Saludos,
Mike
