Christmas is special in many way, and Christmas tamales are a favorite for so many of us. A few days ago I attended the Indio Tamale Festival  (downtown Indio) in the desert area south of Palm Springs.

It was a great event to for people of all ages, it was like a street fair of great eats.

 Here are a few photos I wanted to share. The admission was FREE, and some parking was free while other civic groups had great parking as a fundraiser.

Entertainment was provided on several different stages, I sat and listened to many myself. Anyway you look at it, the event was wonderful, so think about it for next year in beautiful downtown Indio, CA.
 

Not to be out-doubt done, we make our own tamales. Here’s a link to our video of a few weeks ago, our own “Tamale Time” in my kitchen.
