*Squee* Ahem.

Some fun things:
1. Return of Cheap Salsa. By buying veggies wisely, I can make a quart or two of fresh salsa for about $4. No, really. And it's GOOD.
2. New Alton Brown cookbook, FEASTING ON ASPHALT The River Run. Road Trip! Which I found at
3. The Sunnyvale Library, where I also picked up some CD's to rip and found out they have the original Zatoichi movies, which I can watch while eating
4. Cheap summer fruit--stone fruit--cherries, peaches, apricots, berries.
All this AND I got to play in the dirt today. Rawk! Congrats to Gaybri"L" on his wedding, and yes, that's badly mis-spelt. Rich, no seriously, many happy returns.

Ok, what do You put into your fresh salsa?

Depends.

Tomatoes, bell peppers, onions, jalapenos or hot peppers, cilantro, lime, touch of basil, ground pepper, little salt (chips are usually salty). THis time the tomatoes were a bruise bag ($1 for 5 lbs of bruised tomatoes) and a cut bag ($.75 for 2 lbs of peppers with faults cut out) then 2 med onions 3 jalapenos handful cilantro etc.

Recipe varies as to what's available. Soon, will add corn and beans.

That's a fun little book. I am reading it right now. It makes me want to road trip! (:

Yay salsa and fruit. My aunt gets some kickin' cherries at the flea market over in San Jo.
