Comment on “A Street Called Dolores Huerta” by Nikki Darling by Valvicus https://adanmedrano.com/poem-dolores-huerta-street-nikki-darling/#comment-255164 Fri, 15 May 2026 07:22:40 +0000 https://adanmedrano.com/?p=12613#comment-255164 Too often, our cities and their streets are dedicated to the “memories” of mythologized powermongers, not to the lovers of life. They tend to be men, although there are women who seek to accrue worldly power, rather than to distribute divine love.

In any case, those who are humble and grateful for what they have, and are thankful for the opportunity to be of service to our Creator, and by extension, to life in all its forms and manifestations, often go unheralded and unrewarded, in the worldly ways in which the commanders and conquerers revel. That should not deter us, we who look to operate from the heart and to give to “nuestros familiares”, whomever they may be and wherever we may find them. Spirit will assist us, and show us the way, when we open ourselves to its benificent influence and guidance. The ‘still, small voice” speaking within the core of our beingness can lead us to that place that is spiritually best for us, as eternal souls, when we trust in it and have faith in its rightness. The road to the heavenly heights lies within each of us, so be brave and be yourself. May The Blessings Be!

Comment on Original Nachos – Recipe Created By Ignacio “Nacho” Anaya by Delicious Foods That Were Born from Mistakes and Stubbornness https://adanmedrano.com/original-nachos-recipe-ignacio-anaya/#comment-254314 Wed, 25 Mar 2026 11:48:14 +0000 http://adanmedrano.com/?p=11078#comment-254314 […] The nacho story feels wonderfully improvised. Listverse recounts the popular version: Ignacio Anaya, facing hungry guests after hours in Piedras Negras in 1943, pulled together tortilla chips, cheese, and jalapeños rather than send them away.

Comment on “A Street Called Dolores Huerta” by Nikki Darling by Jacquelinee Humes https://adanmedrano.com/poem-dolores-huerta-street-nikki-darling/#comment-254267 Sun, 22 Mar 2026 19:11:36 +0000 https://adanmedrano.com/?p=12613#comment-254267 I LOVE Nikki Darling’s poem, “A Street Called Dolores Huerta” . In it she points out that there are many, many great women whose names and contributions are unknown. In spite of quality or quantity of, women’s contributions to society, humanity, health and peace there is little to remind us of them or to honor them, but frequent street signs leading us to remember and to therefore believe in “the greatness” in men of whom we may know nothing.
Thank you Adan

Comment on The Hidden Complexity of Mexican Oregano: From South Texas to Southern Mexico by Sharon Hutto https://adanmedrano.com/mexican-oregano-south-texas-southern-mexico-lippia-graveolens-poliomintha/#comment-250298 Fri, 31 Oct 2025 00:06:23 +0000 https://adanmedrano.com/?p=12516#comment-250298 Enjoyed this article very much. I am finally being successful with growing the Poliomintha – for nearly 2 years now. In North Texas, I learned that it must be securely well protected when our temps drop too low. I consider that around 40 to be on the safe side. I also have it growing near the house, facing south, so it benefits from somewhat of a micro climate.

Just purchased Truly Texas Mexican again as a gift for a friend. She lives in Oregon, and has family roots in Northwestern Mexico. She has been growing Poblanos and was preparing to make Chile Rellanos. That’s when I had the brainstorm of sending her a copy of your book, and some of my Mirasol seeds for the dried Guajillos. I think she’ll be delighted, and with the historical info too…she’s definitely into the history of ancient civilizations!

Thank you!

I great with tonic and slices of cuke.
