Salsa making among other kitchen activities last night.
I pick my cucumbers a few at a time like my green beans since I didn't sew a huge amount this year. I had to clean out my vegetable bin since it had several weeks worth of veggies.
Of the freshly picked green beans, I blanched some, cooled them well and added Italian vinaigrette to them and popped them in the fridge. Good salad additions or a nice little snack..

I punted on my salsa recipe. I didn't feel like measuring (uh-oh!) (Did it have anything to do with the wine?) so I spiced it up the way I thought it should be. I did grill some of the sweet peppers since I have read recipes that added smoked peppers. Since my jalapeno peppers are doing poorly I didn't have as many of the hot peppers to add so I added a few squirts of Sriracha hot sauce. I did a taste test before I put it in the jars to can and it was SPICY but de-lish! Good thing the kids like it spicy.












I listened to the wonderful music I never get a chance to listen to without being interrupted. I hate interruption, by the way.
I think Al Green should have been a marriage counselor given what he promotes in his songs.
"you be good to me, I'll be good to you- we'll see each other walk away with victory" and love, love, love. Simplistic, I know but still.
