Me too. It was 19 here too - I in a suburb of Sacramento.. haven't seen weather
like this since Winter 90 -91.
It got all of my surviving chile plants, even the ones in my patio..way bummer!
I busy making a big pot of Posole and Red Chile sauce to fend off the cold.
I was lucky to get a batch of Tamales from a co-worker (actually his Mom made
them).
That's just way too much work for me... I like to cook but I'm not going to try
and make tamales by myself again.
