My husband worked in the gin with potatoes at the silos in ’65 until he died in Tempe at the Capitol Foundry. We attended St. Mary’s Catholic Church. Everyone got married there, and still, three of my children live in Chandler. My family liked this recipe a lot since they were young.

My sister Celia Lara was the first person in our family to live in Chandler on 101 E. Morelos Street. The Salvation Army building was behind the house. I remember that I used to walk my nephew and my sister’s grandson to the child care that was located at The Salvation Army building. I began to volunteer in 1998, after I was put on work restriction, and I am still volunteering at this present time. I am proud to live in the neighborhood near Hartford Street, where one of the oldest trees still remains standing in Chandler. Many years ago, this tree’s picture was placed on Arizona postcards. Even though some leaves have fallen off, it still stands tall and strong like if it was defying its old age.

History of the másque quick salsa: The name came from an incident that occurred when my family was invited to a Mexican celebration. Each family was to bring a platter of food to share. When we arrived at the party, my sister realized that she had forgotten the salsa she had made, so I told her, “Don’t worry, Antonia, I will make a salsa so delicious, and it is this easy to make más que quick.” This is how the name of the salsa came about. This recipe has been very popular for it is the most requested item to take to every potluck I am invited to.
