Hola Chulas y Chulos! How you doin’? Ready for my favorite time of the year? Now, you can call the season “wintertime” or “the holidays,” but those of us in the know call it peak tamal season.
In honor of tamal season, my chancla and I put together some of our favorite memes about tamales for your enjoyment.
Tamal season calls for a seasonal menu, qué no?
Hey, there is something to be said for consistency.
I mean, who doesn’t like tamales?
Thems is fightin’ words!
Open-door tamal policy is the only way to go.
Tamales are always welcome.
Because everybody got time for tamales.
Even people who ain’t got time for anything else got time for tamales.

If you want your co-workers to love you, bring them tamales.
That’s it, they are yours for life.
There is a special place in heaven for tamaleras who make more than enough tamales.
Yass!
Not everyone can make tamales.
But those who can, have all the power.
And they deserve it, they deserve every bit of power.

After all, tamales are the original energy bar.
Mmmm…my kind of energy.
Also…qué “Rogue One,” ni qué nada!
How can anyone be talkin’ about anything else right now? Priorities, people!
Unwrapping presents is a’ight, but unwrapping tamales is where it’s at.
They’re always just want you wanted, no returns necessary.
The problem is that most of us unwrap WAY too many.
Don’t hate, it’s hard to show restraint.

By the end of peak tamal season, you understand why they say “you are what you eat.”
Whatever, it’s totally worth it.
My chancla and I wish you a stress-free holiday season filled with many, many tamales.
AKA: Joy wrapped in a corn husk.
Also, be kind to the person who eats the last tamal.
It’s not that they don’t love you; they just love tamales more.
That’s it for this week’s The Flying Chancla Report. I love you mucho and remember, spread love, not chanclazos!
