And we’re back. With mango salsa.
So my life spun a little out of control last year, right about this time. I won’t go into the details, but it was a bad year and it wasn’t particularly conducive to blogging.
But I’m still in the kitchen, and if nothing else, I want to start documenting the stuff I make (particulary when it turns out well) so that I remember how to make it again.
Keith and I have a weekly tradition that we call Action Friday. Get your head out of the gutter, kids, because it’s not that kind of action. We make dinner and drinks, and then we watch an action movie. It began because we were working our way through les cinemas du Luc Besson and expanded from there. For tonight’s feature (After the Sunset; it should be appropriately terrible) we went with a Mexican theme. I know, the movie is set in the Bahamas. We play it fast and loose in this house.
