lone star to empire state.


there are many, many texans living in new york. i do not have an exact count on this statistic, but i know a lot of texans here. and only some of them did i know before i moved.

we miss a lot of things about texas, like ro-tel tomatoes, tex-mex, people who understand the jokes on "king of the hill," luby's macaroni, spring break with warm weather, maybe even bluebonnets, real bbq, and frito pie. i love the tradition of eating of black-eyed peas on new years day. but, new york is lacking in the texas department. i am unsure why it is easier to find quality japanese or indian food than texas fare.

blake recently showed me a blog dedicated to this mess: homesick texan. it is all things texan, and includes recipes, and the writer sometimes tells you where you can find the coveted items listed above. blake is convinced i should befriend her.

anyhow, she is very helpful.
