Evelyn Bruder’s Dream Team blog

In this blog entry I talked about the cuisine of Las Cruces and how important they are to our community and culture. Of all the wonderful things we have to eat here, red and green chile is certainly the most defining food; we put it in everything, dessert and drinks included. But a few evenings [...]

This morning, I woke up to a lovely 1/4″ dusting of snow on the ground, which is always a surprise in Las Cruces. It had gotten unusually cold last night, dipping into the low 30′s, which can sometimes be a nice reminder that it is still winter. So many days the temperature stays at a [...]

As I mentioned briefly in this blog, I think that food is an integral part of understanding and enjoying a culture. The good stuff (and the bad stuff) changes with every mile that you drive, every state line that you cross, and every ocean that you hop; we always try to avoid major chains when [...]

Blog by Kevin Wilson The Wilsons were out and about again this weekend! A great fare of free holiday activities was offered up to the people of Las Cruces! All you needed was a desire to be festive and good warm clothing to brave the unseasonably cold weather! YES!! It was cold in the desert!! [...]

Each year, the American Southwest Theater Company at New Mexico State University puts on a production during the holiday season (on top of their several other productions each year), and as of the last few years, the ASTC has switched off between the classic yuletide tale of ‘A Christmas Year’ and a different, non-holiday production. [...]

Any Las Cruces native or resident will tell you that if there’s any football game to see, it’s Mayfield versus Las Cruces High. For nearly 30 years, the two high schools were the only secondary education schools in the city, and as a result, a deep-rooted rivalry was born. Even with the arrival of Onate [...]

Just yesterday I was informed of an upcoming event here in Las Cruces: The US Army Field Band is performing at the Las Cruces High School Gymnasium on Thursday, October 15th, at 7pm. I’ve never had the opportunity to hear the President’s Field Band perform live before, only the Marine Corps Band a few years [...]

This past weekend we headed out into the blazing sunshine to enjoy the Whole Enchilada Festival. As always, Las Crucens came out by the hundreds for the parade, the carnival, the shopping, and most importantly, the food. Tent after tent after tent emitted delicious scents, serving up everything from enchiladas to smoked turkey legs to [...]

Around this time every year, Las Cruces hosts a unique and tasty event: the Whole Enchilada Festival! This event is a celebration of the culture, history, and food of New Mexico, offering a range of entertainment and festivities for the whole family to enjoy. This year, the event takes place in September on Friday the [...]

It was a good morning to be from Las Cruces, NM. There were things to do and places to see. The excitement began the night before when my wife and I discussed the possibility of taking our young Daughters, Kendra (8) and Kayla (7) to White Sands National Monument for the mass ascension of the [...]

Whether you’re a football fan or not, there’s something fun and exciting about old rivalries coming together to face off. Harvard vs. Yale, Texas vs. Texas A&M, Ohio State vs. Michigan… The list goes on of famous college battles that result in big new stories and historical followings. I don’t follow sports much, except for [...]

I’m sure you have seen the countless “best places to live in America” articles on sites like MSN, Money.com, and so on. Occasionally I’ll click and read, but so often those big top ten lists overlook the fantastic, smaller cities and towns that could be the ideal location for any person or family. If you’re [...]

Over the course of the last five years, the government of New Mexico has been working hard to draw attention to the growing film and television opportunities in our state. Incredible tax breaks and incentives, new sound stages, and a sprawling landscape that encompasses almost every side of nature are just a few of the [...]

I had an errand to do today that took me downtown. Being a Real Estate Agent, I thought that I would take a few minutes to visit some sights and neighborhoods in the area. “A busman’s holiday” (That’s for those of you old enough to remember that expression.) I’ve lived in Las Cruces for 35 [...]
