i used to go places that dumped them in the scale righ tin front of you before they hit the roaster. but apparently they aren't as good at sichler farms any more. it's a farm stand on san mateo where i always went, unless i wanted to drive out to wegners in corrales. i know you could get it at the grocery (i miss bueno...never expected to say that! frozen, chopped, roasted, ready to use!) but for me it was a fall pilgrimage.
i used to live close t the frontier. they made the whole neighborhood smell like roasting chile the whole entire fall. itwas wonderful. at least my home rosating got me a good sniff!
oh, i gt so homesick for albuquerque. its such an awesome place. and i bet this weekend is balloon fiesta. damn. i miss it.
go to garcias for me, and have a plate of blue corn flat cheese enchiladas with extra green, and pepitas instead of rice! thats something you sure can't do in virginia. (sigh)
thanks for the nostalgia trip! =)jude
