tres updates

The following now at Mission Bicycle Company:


Since it felt SO good to be sewing again, I stopped in to the fabric store
to restock. Unfortunately, I got paid AND there was a 40% off sale on
the ribbon I bind the leg straps and bike corsets with.

Oops.


Well, I couldn't stop spending money there, so $100 in wholesale
picture frames later I've finally gotten my favorite drawings in frames.
It took so little time, and they look so professional. 6 of the larger
drawings and these 3 smaller ones are now in matching frames, ready
to be on anybody's wall (any suggestions?).


And of course, since I can eat again, here's a recipe.


Salsa verde, the easiest thing I've ever made:

6 tomatillos
less than 1 jalapeno
1 clove garlic
lime juice
lots of cilantro
salt

put everything in a blender, blend, serve with tortilla chips. or use
in chile verde, or serve with chili verde after using it in chili verde
(all 3 done above).

chili verde:

salsa verde
some kind of broth (chicken preferred, but as I had none I used
miso. weird but undetectable)
bell pepper
hot pepper (anaheim? poblano?)
onion
chicken

saute the chicken in oil till it browns on the outside (just for extra
crisp, but not a necessary step. saute onions and peppers. Add all
to a large pot with salsa verde and broth, cook for 1-4 hours. serve,
or refrigerate for other things, for example, empanadas.

empanadas: not satisfied with the dough. will keep working on this.
but they happened, chicken chili verde empanadas with salsa verde
and avocado. tasty as anything.
