When was delias established

However, steaming them in underground pits or uncovered pots eventually became the norm. Throughout the years, the tamale changed in size, color, and even fillings, all depending on where the cooks were located. In some parts, the tamale was wrapped in cornhusks, while in others, tree bark or banana leaves were used. The Aztecs traditionally used turkey, frog, flamingo, rabbit, honey, or beans as fillings.

Mayans, on the other hand, used squash, iguana, deer, beans, or fish. Eventually, through centuries-worth of evolution, the tamale became how we know it today.

Online shopping, whether from massive retailers like Amazon or individual brands, big and small, have pretty much replaced the need to mail in a check and a product number in order to buy the things we want and need. While the process is ultimately more convenient, I sometimes miss the excitement of flipping through catalogs that came in the mail, even if I didn't end up buying or asking my parents to buy anything from them.

The brand built its image largely around the free catalogs it consistently sent out each month, and because it became a staple in so many homes, the brand was established as the 'cool' clothing brand, especially for tweens and teens who wanted to dress like the models in the pictures. When you first looked at the catalog, you could almost mistake it for a magazine because of the way it was designed, likely in an attempt to avoid being thrown out with the rest of the 'junk mail.

Not only was the clothing itself usually bold, colorful, kitschy, clunky, and all of the other adjectives that could be used to describe 90ss fashion, but the models and the page layouts were too. Girls my age posed in the clothing, but their poses has a lot more attitude than your typical Sears catalog model. The price point for its products—bottle cap belts, platform Mary Janes, metallic eyeshadow, bedazzled cardigans—were within reach for girls getting the catalog delivered to their predominantly middle-income households.

I think a lot of the personality came out of the clothes and the personality of the models. Also, the brands that we carried, some of them were little brands happening in New York or Los Angeles, and we made it possible for them to sell nationally.

It used to be like the kids in New England wore their jeans a certain way, [but this was] everything, everywhere. In a sense, this is true: The catalogs, which were delivered to addresses across the country, introduced broad swathes of the country to budding Y2K-era trends. The visual language of the catalogs was clean—all images were shot on a stark white studio background—yet collaged; models appeared as floating, almost photoshopped figures across the spreads in non-linear layouts.

In addition, it asked customers to talk back and communicate with the brand, an entirely novel concept. It got them in the conversation, so then we became in conversation with them.

The mail-order publication also included witty, seemingly unrelated copy, written in a voice fit for a fun-loving teen. In the end we just really wanted to have some fun.
