Jean, I finally made your Chile Relleno casserole last week for the family. We all loved it. My 10 year old daughter said it was too spicy, but she got used to it & enjoyed it anyway. I always like food with a bit of bite though. It's pretty expensive - about $16 & that's with the chiles that were $4 a can. I saw some brands that were much more. Have you tried making it with chopped chiles? They're much cheaper.
Jimpidy Wamp, Thanks for the sculpture. I love the detail you put into it.

Lynn, yes, it can be pricey, but I think it's worth it. I 've paid almost six bucks a can, so I will stock up when I see them on sale. Have never tried the diced chiles, suppose that would work. So you had no problem finding the El Pato hot tomato sauce? I think that really makes it.
Glad to hear your family liked it, thanks for letting me know.

O yeah Lynn-- I'm still pondering the major difference between S/C and synthetic diamond mostly

Yes, Ed, it's Macayo's canned green chiles. SiC wear unevenly unless you're completely anal about using the entire width of the wheel. I'm only partly anal that way. Diamond powder cost me .28 a carat & I use 10 carats to resurface a 8"x3" belt. The glue might cost as much as the diamond powder. Lynn partly

That interesting Lynn ! I never thought of refurbishing my belts I use S/C belts so I'm not sure it would be worth it on that type of paper
Yours are probably like Nova belts? With neo-preme backing? I never used them before
If you’re ever in Phoenix Look me up-- we’ll try Macayo’s Although I don’t always eat Mexican food But when I do I prefer don Jose` mostly

Ed, Some SiC belts are cloth backed. I think one of mine on the machine started life like that.
If I'm in Phoenix, I'll take you up on Macayo's.
I would Mexican food almost every day. If I lived in San Francisco, I'd be hard pressed to do my own cooking. I used to live an hour south of the City & found a few awesome Mexican restaurants. Once I discovered Taqueria Pancho Villa in the Mission District, it was hard to go anywhere else though. They have the best chicken tacos (too big to hold, I cut them up) & a salsa bar with the best salsas I've ever had. 16th Street between Mission & Valencia. OK, I'll stop now. Lynn
