The pretty table just waiting for us…
Mick, who spends a lot of time at his second home in Zihuatanejo.
Jackie and Kurt treated us to homemade pazole. Pazole is a traditional Mexican stew full of things like corn or maize, pork or chicken, chili peppers and all kinds of seasonings. We had a traditional cabbage, radish and lime garnish – well traditional to Mick anyway!
Here's Mike, Mick, Kurt and the back of Jackie's head - all ready to dive into the hearty meal with a mixed bean and avocado salad and fresh tortillas to boot. Of course, a couple of shots of tequila and a Mexican beer rounded out the meal.
Ahhh, but coffee and dessert were the finishing touches…Jackie made a most delicious tres leches cake that was the perfect ending to our fiesta.
Thank you, Jackie and Kurt – it was great! And it was also great to see Mick…next time Kenmore!
p.s. It was our first time to leave Rock and Squeak alone at home while we were gone. And guess what? No problems - they did just fine!

Those dishes looks delicious! If they were half as tasty as the photos, you had one grand dinner!
I love pozole. And it has quite a history in Mexico. I intend to do a post on it sometime this week.
Hello Tancho! It was delicious AND grand. But the best part? Hanging with friends that I've known for over 25 years!
Hi Steve - I'll be looking for your post!
Looks great! Everything looks delish! Haven't made pozole in a while, but that's because I am trying to not eat too much meat. I love it though. Glad you met up with your friends and had a good time.
