Try:

You can use height=xxx or width=xxx -- the measurements are in pixels so you can sort of guess -- it is 100 per inch.
That results in:

Wife is out of state until Jan 2nd. What to do, what to do?? They are SO good. Simple.
Eat 18 now and then on Jan 2 tell your wife someone broke in and stole the other 18 and the leftover salsa.

I really miss having the option to go into any crappy Alsups in West Texas and get tamales if I wanted them... I recall buying 10 homemade tamales at a clip from an old woman outside the grocery store in Hobbs too.

“Living in Texas, to me, it means both! Why take chances...??? “
Agree for sure! I’m a NBT (native born Texian) and my family has served both as long as I can remember. Sadly though, black eyed peas with snaps has become difficult to find. If you don’t know what I’m talking about you don’t matter. :)

Pork tamales have always been a favorite of ours. If you happen to know someone that is good at making them, take them some venison to mix with the pork. You will not be disappointed.

Christmas Eve. Every year I do a tamale, rice, beans, and drinks feed for family and friends. We usually have between 30-50 people show up.

Guess I could leave the garage door open but keep the house locked for a couple of hours, since they are in the fridge out there.

I do tamales for Christmas - and only the sauces are hot, the tamales are not.
I’m Brooklyn Irish Catholic and my husband in New England Irish English French Canadian......but he spent 11 years living in Texas and Arizona before we met. I learned to make tamales for him.

I really miss having the option to go into any crappy Alsups in West Texas and get tamales if I wanted them... I recall buying 10 homemade tamales at a clip from an old woman outside the grocery store in Hobbs too. Good tamales are where you find 'em. Best I ever had came from a vendor in the Athens, TX city square. Black gentleman named Early Raymond, who defined his 7-day weeks as "three makin' days and three sellin' days, with Sundays for church".
He drove all over Henderson County looking for what he called "#1 corn husks".
Wonderful tamales...
And, if you can make friends with a Tex-Mex family where the women get together every holiday season and make literally hundreds of tamales, and come into a dozen-or-two for yourself, you can't go wrong.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm....hot tamales....cold Mexican beer.

LOL When my little one first had shrimp she hated them because she didn’t know to peel the shells off. I thought it was a given...bad Mommy.
