Preemptive mourning
Posted Feb 24, 2004
I've got 'winter' by tori amos on the mp3 player and moving on my mind. moving away from my dad is something i've mentally blocked because i find it hard to deal with. we don't really get along. i'm so in love with him, obsessively, if i think about it. and he's got no kindred like me - no one, though i don't think he knows it. he doesn't like me, what i represent, who i've chosen to be. it hurts me like i can't explain how. i'm moving away and i don't know if i'll see him again. he's going to die someday. i'm going to get a phone call and shatter. he's not going to have known who i was, or how to have appreciated me, or quite how obsessively i loved him and so sometimes i listen to music that breaks me and contemplate futilely how to steal back his heart.

pico de gallo..
Posted Feb 10, 2004
...is hella good. Here's what you do - find some cabbage and chop it into small bits until you've got a couple cups. Dice a tomato and a bit of onion. Throw it in the bowl with the cabbage. Chop up some cilantro, maybe a little radish, and some chili pepper. If you've got some garlic to mince put a little of that in as well. If you want to control the 'hot', take three tablespoons or so of water. Put a few drops (to taste) or hot sauce in it. Squirt in a whole bunch of lime juice - toss the mixture in with the vegetables. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add more water if the mixture isn't 'wet' enough for your liking, but it should be pretty dry.
Next, buy some small corn tortillas. In a large skillet, heat a half inch or so of cooking oil. Cut the tortillas into 6 wedges a piece. When the oil is hot, put the wedges in - not overlapping much, only several at a time - and fry a couple minutes, turn a keep frying until a little browned. They will harden up when taken out of the oil. Drain on paper towel, and sprinkle with salt (see below). Enjoy while fresh with the pico de gallo .
mexican table salt: this can be used instead of plain salt. and it should be :
1/2 cup sea salt (or whatever you have in the house)
1/4 cup chili powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/8 teaspoon crumbled dried oregano.
Having shared good food has made me feel much better about life (and the bullsh** accumulating with gathering speed on this site)
