It's a night off - no work, no working out and going to bed early. So very appropos to be kicked back with a roast in the oven and a bowl of Don in my hand. Yes, a bowl. It's a small one, but a bowl nonetheless. It's been a long time, so glad to see you again...
I used to not mind taking my car in for service. Past tense. At least this time theh problem showed up before I even left the parking lot, rather than a week or two later.
I have another order that's taking a grand tour of the country. It started in CA and is making the grand rounds - including coming into and leaving this state twice already. Next time I take a vacation, I'm going to send myself as a package and see what I can see. It's cheaper than airfair and gets to more places.
Chiles and annatto (achiote) were just made to go together. The aroma coming from the slow cooker makes me want to eat NOW, rather than wait until tomorrow. But I know it's even better after being allowed to sit in the fridge a while, so I'll wait.
To all in N.E.Ohio, there's a new taco place just opened on southeast corner of Mayfield and Lee, called San Diego Taco Factory (sdtacofactory.com.) Chef trained in Mexico. Just had lunch from there. As someone who grew up in Texas, I give this a "H*ll YEAH". Meaning I highly recommend it.
Top gifts from my daughter and her BF: A sack of potatoes. If you're thinking "WTF?", have no fear - they're to go with the potato cannon they also gave me!
Factoid: Not everyone can smell asparagus in urine. A particular DNA set is a strong indicator of who can and cannot. I can only hypothesize, therefore, that a certain DNA pattern also determines if one can smell the EVIL in BP. ;o)
You know, it's not smart to treat people badly if you need help from them on a repeat, on-going basis. So yeah, I enjoyed what happened today rather immensely! Nice that it took no effort on my part!
If you experiment as much as I do, you accept the failures as well as successes. Failing is one step closer to success. But sometimes the clean-up after a failure is just mind boggling... Ugh!
