Well thank you Steven. . .I'm not sure when but one day in hopefully
the not to distant future I'll be coming back to S. Cal. for another
visit. All the guisos that you mention sound just terrific especially
the tacos de lengua. . .I'm really partial to cow and more so to Lamb
tongue, best meat in the world next to goats head.
anyway the Tequila part sounds inviting as well. . .I have a story
about my grandmother going from her town in Northern Jalisco very close
to Colotlan and being baptized or confirmed in Tequila, Jalisco. Now
this doesn't make sense since they are so far away from each other for
the time period I'm talking about (around 1886-1896). Well anyway to
get to the point yes I'd be interested in seeing his (your Tio Julio)
pedigree chart. I'm still thinking in the back of my mind that we might
be primos via our Miramontes and every bit of new info that I see might
be the piece the puts us together as the one family we possibly might
have once been.
thanks again for the invitation. If you or any of the other Ranchos
members ever get to Raleigh, NC well that is close enough for us to at
least have a meal together.

Hey, Joseph, you stand invited to my house for menudo, or
pozole, or a carne asada, tostadas de cueritos, carnitas, enchiladas de
camaron, costillitas de puerco con nopales en salsa de tomatillos,
tacos de sesos (o lengua, al pastor), pepena, mole poblano con arroz y
cebollas curtidas, pollo frito en salsa chipotle, tripitas, cocido,
albondigas, or sopes, etc, con arroz y frijoles, and followed with a
great jericalla, flan, capirotada (if it's during lent), and served
with a great agua de naranja, tamarindo, jamaica, or horchata, or a
shot of my Tio Julio's wonderful tequila, Don Julio. Don Julio
Gonzalez Estrada, maker of Don Julio Tequila, is my Abuelita Cruz's
first-cousin. If you're interested I could show you his pedigree chart.
So whenever you decide to travel outside of North Carolina and
visit Southern California, then as they say...MI CASA ES SU CASA.
Cordialmente,
Steven H.
