The beef chuck was cooked and shredded this morning. Masa was mixed earlier today. Waiting for corn husks to soften. I'm hoping I can crank out two and a half dozen tamales out of the batch.

My family is expecting a mild heat. I should fill 5 with a bit of ghost pepper flake as a prank. In my head, it would play out like the 5 Golden Tickets in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

It will likely end in broken trust, hurt feelings, and my estrangement.

I woke up this morning with I Want it Now from Willy Wonka in my head. https://song.link/s/1yRfCCqy1LZjuS4Wa4l6g0

I want a bean feast

Botober Day 9: small sweet pipes

This was an “oh yeah, I need to draw something before I go to bed” thing. That’s why Wonka’s office is empty and he looks like he borrowed a suit from David Byrne.

Helping support the family is not worth getting out of bed for - but a golden ticket to a chocolate factory? "Oh, I suddenly feel much better! "
