Some salsa judges like it hot, hot, hot

I like hot salsa. That’s all I’m going to say.

Oh, and I’m going to be a judge at the salsa contest April 15 at Sierra-at-Tahoe. But I’m only one of five judges, so this piece of insider information may not help.

But it might be worth your while to start mixing up a batch of salsa. A 2012-13 season pass goes to the winner of “traditional” and “fruity” varieties. Contestants need to bring 2 cups of homemade salsa to West Bowl by 10am Sunday, and specify what category they are entering.

For those who don’t want to do the salsa bit, there will be pinatas for kids and adults, a taco eating contest ($5 entry fee for five tacos), and live music.

    Be sure buy some Ben & Jerry’s for the next morning.
    You’ll know when you’re walking bowlegged it was good stuff.
