bluerose,

off-topic, but speaking of Dairy Queen, are there still Blakes Hamburger joints in New Mexico? Those used to be the best good ol’ greasy hamburgers in the known universe.

Blake’s Lotaburger… they almost outnumber the yucca plants out here! There’s one twenty minutes from us, down in Alamogordo (I live out in the sticks!) Our last Dairy Queen in town went out of business about two years ago, but Blake’s is still going strong!

They supposedly make really good breakfast burritos, too, but I’ve never tried 'em.

A friend told us about one time he and his wife had stopped at a Lotaburger in Pojoaque (a Native American pueblo in the northern part of the state, for those of you who don’t know) and they overheard another customer (from out of state) ask the girl behind the counter, “How do you pronounce the name of this place?”

She gave him a strange look and slowly said: “LOT-A-BUR-GER.”
 
Oh, that’s funny, bluerose. Sounds like an aggie joke. I lived in Albuquerque for a glorious almost-two-years in the late '80’s. Loved everything about it. Blakes was definitely up there with my most favorite things about New Mexico. (That and green sauce) I had to have some pretty serious surgery while I lived there and someone wanted to bring me a treat, whatever I wanted, the first day I could eat real food. I wanted a Blakes hamburger. Yum.
