Dinner was reruns, so here's a favorite of mine:
Easy Tamale Muffins (Lighter than masa)
Foil baking cups or non-stick muffin pan sprayed with cooking spray.
2 pkgs (8½ oz each) corn bread muffin mix
1 can cream style corn (14½ oz)
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1½ cups Mexican cheese blend, divided
1½ cups chopped cooked chicken (use a rotissarie chicken, easy!)
¾ cup red or green enchilada sauce
Heat oven to 400º. In large bowl combine muffin mix, corn, and eggs. Stir
until just moistened. stir in 1 cup of cheese. In another bowl toss the chicken
with enchilada sauce.
Fill each of 24 foil lined muffin cups or muffin tin with 2 T of the
batter. Place 1 T of the chicken mixture in the center of each and cover with
about 1 T of the batter.
Bake 13-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Sprinkle tops with remaining
cheese, bake another 3 or so minutes until cheese is melted. Cool 5 minutes
before removing from pan to wire racks. Serve warm. Refrigerate leftovers.
I won't have a blog up tomorrow. Will explain later.... Everything is OK!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Sunday. Ciao.

April 17th
National Cheeseball Day
National Cheeseball Day is a day to stuff yourself with cheeseballs. But
wait!!! What kind of cheeseball are we talking about? There's the light and
airy, puffy cheeseball that you munch on for a snack by the dozens. There is
also the cheeseball, often decorated with nuts, that sits on a party tray until
spread on a cracker. Is this a celebration derived from the snack industry, or
the dairy industry?
When it comes to the cheeseball snack, we are certain that you can't eat
just one. Not even a handful. Cheeseballs are addicting. Place a bowl of
cheeseballs on the counter, and watch them disappear right before your eyes.
Toddlers and young kids are Cheeseball hounds. So are teenagers and adults. In
other words, everyone lives cheeseballs.
The cheeseballs of holiday trays is equally loved. Strangely, it is wildly
popular around the holidays and hard to find other times of year.
Celebrate today with cheeseballs (both kinds). Serve them after dinner
during your favorite Television show, or whenever its
convenient.

Good morning.
Yay for Alexander Cartwright. When I was a little gir, what I wanted most was a baseball mitt and to play on a team.
There are some good movies with scenes on immigration and becoming American. In "Brooklyn"- an Irish girl struggles with assimilation- and wins. In Concussion- why the doctor came to America- one of the most heartfelt soliquys on why the best and brightest come.... it made me well-up with gratitude.
Cheeseballs... thank you for the suggestion. Enjoy your day off of blogging tomorrow.
Sue,
Enjoyed catching up on two days of your blog. Can't believe how busy this weekend has been for me.
Did you hear about the dumb new thing that the Sheriff has demanded? The emblems of the boots on the helmet at ELA Station HAS to be removed! EVERYTHING with that on it. John says it's embedded in the design on the floor for heaven sake! I guess some of the uniforms have that patch on the shoulder?
I do not understand WHY as it will cost lots of $$$ to remove it from everything. grrrr I am wondering why and the reason behind it! :(
XO Trisha
Yes, the emblems was a topic at Laughlin. Irritating that every station and unit will have to get rid of their emblems. Also he is taking rank away from Reserves. He wants our department just like LAPD!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr...... xoox
Thank you Sue. It was a very nice luncheon. It was nice meeting the new sheriff. McDonnell seems very nice and genuine. I'm so proud of my hubby. Xoxo
A lot of us are proud of your hubby!!!! oxox
