(ooc: Jaime in blue, Bianca in black!)[For those who’ve seen Jaime posting around the network before, this transmission comes from the Earth sector rather than the Wood. He’s moved in with his mother for the sake of convenience, even if he hasn’t technically made an announcement or anything. (Bianca herself is visible off to the corner of the screen.) He gives the camera a short wave and a little grin.]
So, uh, hey! Good to be outta the water there. [The whole reverse snowglobe thing was cool and all, but it’s VERY refreshing to actually see the sun again.] Since all the festivities are over, we thought it’d be cool to have a sort of get together tomorrow. Just something small, you know. [
He glances expectantly over at Bianca.]
[She moves over, so now both Reyes are on screen. She doesn’t look angry like the last time she made a post to the network. No worries there, for anyone who’s witnessed her temper thus far.]Considering how many here probably don’t know how to cook for themselves,
[Read: She’s mainly thinking on the teenagers and kids here] I thought it’d be nice if we did something like a tamale party with everyone helping out to make them, even if it isn’t quite the season.
[She gives a light shrug. Tamales are usually a holiday food, because of the time commitment involved and the fact it’s usually something to make in giant batches with everyone giving a hand in making them.] I think I’ve figured out some substitute ingredients, so it should work out well enough.
[Guess what the Reyes have been eating for the last few nights.]Yup. [Jaime nods in agreement. He’s been the pseudo-tamale guinea pig all week. (Not that that’s a bad thing by any means. Mom’s cooking is still Mom’s cooking, even if it’s using whatever weird kedan food she’s found.)] It’s not exactly like the real deal, but it’s pretty close. We’re in EA-1A, if anybody wants to drop by then. Bring friends. [A sidelong glance at Bianca. If he knows his mom, she’s dead-set on feeding the entire turtle.][Oh, she definitely is.]Bring along something to use as filling, too. That way we can end up with a nice variety and we’ll end up with enough for everyone to take home with them. There’ll be some soup at first while we wait for the first batches, but that probably won’t last long.
[She figured out how to make something like Mexican sopa with what was available pretty quickly. Bart’s random food mention was a goodsend. Tomatoes are a staple ingredient for most Mexican hispanic foods. Something that tastes like them works just as well.][He laughs.] Seriously, it won’t. Anyway, we’ll see you then!
[With that, they cut the feed.](ooc: The tamale party log can be found here.) ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png){kind=small}
