Not everything is hard work at the APS conference in Washington, D.C. This year!
A hardy band of travelers ventured out on the Washington mall for a bit of Segwaying…
Rogelio’s tamale pie for cinco de mayo
There are good tamales and they are great tamales, but a greatest way to prepare it is in pie! This gives you a wonderful way to make the filling generous… And in this I mean… Meaty!
What could be more meaty than a pound of steak, a pound of charizo and a pound of bacon? All of the meats are pre cooked and seasoned.
There are two parts to the process… Making the filling and making the topping! Since the filling contains a cup of the topping you will want to finish them at the same time.
THE FILLING
2 cups corn meal
12 ounces half and half
12 ounces cream
Salt, black pepper and garlic powder to taste
Cook over a low heat until thickened then add chopped Cilantro … I use a “bunch”
2 cups of your favorite Mexican cheeses
MEATS
I like to precook the meats in a frying pan separately with seasoning.
Also dice and sauté on large sweet onion and 3 heaping tablespoons garlic… Then add to meats and set aside.
The SAUCE
Approx 15 ounce can of creamed corn
Approx 30 ounces of tomato sauce
3 teaspoons of Pimenton (Spanish Paprika )
1 teaspoon Chipotle powder
Approximately 13 roasted peppers sliced
3.8 ounce can of sliced olives (1/2 cup)
1 cup of topping
2 cups Mozzarella
Salt, black pepper and garlic powder to taste
Cook over a low heat around twenty minutes, remove from heat and add meats and 3 cups hominy
Pour into a large baking dish and bake at 350 degrees F for about one hour.
Bueno!!!

I was asked to give a lecture and mine was entitled “Think like a Scientist.”
Here I am with friends and new friends from College of the Canyons.
One of my students Nate Honeycutt presented on a Political Psychology study involving over 700 faculty that created a lot of buzz!
Conferences are great experiences for budding academicians and master professors alike!
The Thayer Hotel
Highland Falls near West Point with tulips in bloom!
Staying at the Thayer Hotel at West Point is a comfortable and wonderful experience overlooking the Hudson River. One can easily understand its strategic position in the Revolutionary war.
If you are doing business in the New York area of on vacation you couldn’t do much better that spending some time here!
At the Thayer… Everyone feels special!
