Holiday Food, NM Style

Strangely I think this will be delicious. My hands just startedd grabbing at spices.

Butternut squash with sea salt, brown sugar, New Mexico red chile powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. And I think I'll glaze it with tangerine juice as it roasts.

Xmas eve dinner we will have posole and tortillas at my mom's, and I am making flan/pudim de leite.

Holiday food for a Burquena for sure.

Improvisation

Click here to read about the major shift that has happened for me over the last 4 months regarding how I work as a jeweler, metalsmith and artist.

It's an exciting time for me, a relief really, because being stuck (creatively or otherwise) is tedious and no fun.

Hope you all are having a good end of year. My best friend is coming to visit and we are going to do luminarias. New Mexico traditions die hard. :)
