You don't have to use it all the time. But you must keep it with you to present at checkpoints and to all hall monitors.

Just make sure the hall bullies don't steal it!!

(I don't think we have any bullies here, but you never know. Where there's lunch money, bullies are never far behind.)

I spent most of yesterday making about sixty tamales. Imagine my surprise when I clicked on Nathan's blog post and saw he had written about Christmas Eve tamales! I make my tamales with pork, but I also experimented with chiles and cheese this year. Not bad.
