  1. I clicked on a banner ad for tourism in Andalucia, and on the link to,
    what else, food. The article mentioned a specialty of Granada called
    "el arroz al liberal" - Blue State Rice. I googled arroz al liberal and
    found only the Spanish version of the page which says this:

    el arroz al liberal (cargadísimo de especias con perdiz y conejo
    deshuesados) = heavily laden with spices and boneless partridge and rabbit

    Yahoo search found the same sites - can anyone find a recipe?

    Thanks

    It's a rice with rabbit recipe -- in Spanish, but probably
    decipherable.

    Somewhere near that page I found this:
    El arroz que cocinamos es el arroz con conejo. Aquí se le hecha
    almendra y azafrán productos que se cultivan en la zona. Cuando la
    carne es liebre o conejo silvestre, se le suele llamar arroz liberal.
    Es un arroz caldoso.

    Which may say, since my Spanish is always questionable, something like:
    The rice we cook is rice with rabbit. Here it's made with almonds and
    saffron, productos cultivated in the area. When the meat is hare or
    wild rabbit, we are accustomed to calling it 'arroz liberal.' It is a
    soupy rice. -aem

    Thinking about it, in context the name 'liberal' probably connotes
    'free' or 'wild' (as in 'liberated'😉 if they use that name when it's
    wild rabbit. -aem

    That would be my take. I live in a red state, but I'm FREE!

    Probably the reddest. I hear there are places in your state where you
    can't even pull off the side of the road and have a picnic. Didn't you
    say, 'Last in education, first in executions'? That you have Molly
    Ivins is your saving grace. -aem

    And Jim Hightower...and Janine Garafalo...and Willie Nelson...and the Dixie
    Chicks...

    At least as far as Shrub's approval rating goes, Tejas isn't the reddest
    state, believe it or not:

    Many metro areas in TX are actually purple...and Austin is downright BLUE!

    Mary (in Houston)--also FREE

  7. Thanks - that was it, I'm sure. How did you find the web site?

  8. And Texas has Naomi Shihab Nye, an incredible poet, a terrific writer
    of children's books, a great hearted spirit. She's in San Antonio, too,
    not Austin. I met her in NYC and we talked politics. She wanted me to
    know that not all of Texas is W country.

    The rural areas (and the affluent suburbs) are mostly W country, but that's
    true of many other states (even "blue" ones), as well. Harris Co. (where
    Houston is located) voted 55% (for W) to 45% (for Kerry) in '04--almost
    50/50. Hardly the same as other southern "red" states (e.g., Mississippi and
    Alabama).

    I think people not from TX are often surprised at what a diverse state it is
    (I know I was when I moved down here from PA 15 years ago). Yes, parts of it
    are exactly like what most people would expect TX to be like, but other
    areas are very, very different.

    OB food: Grilled pork loin stuffed with bacon cornbread stuffing and rubbed
    with olive oil, garlic, paprika, and s/p, along with steamed broccoli for
    dinner last night (and lunch today). Chili (in bread bowls) for dinner
    tonight.
