I pretty much always buy from the same people here. Through trial and error, I have discovered what, for me, are the best products and people. I still explore and try whatever looks good, but I always come back to my favorites. In this case, it is Doña Melisa and her tamales, which are always so nice and fat and filled with the best ingredients
And Doña Juana and her table full of delicious goodies. She always has chile rellenos made from several kinds of chiles. I always go for the pasillas. Mmmm, mmmm, good.
The here and now... and what and why
Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.
First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

You can find my music on Jango (World & latin - Worldbeat) and at iTunes and most online stores.
