I have not been here in a while... I have been transferred to Anchorage Alaska and want to blog about that. I will return here next summer.

One Day Near a Waterfall

Williams Tower, Houston, TX

Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli

A couple of small cannoli on a bed of confectioner's sugar.  Raw agave nectar.I get them thinking I am only going to eat one.  Who am I kidding?

Chicken Cacciatore

Chicken Cacciatore made in my crockpot. Cooked on low for 8 hours. The smell was tremendous.

more Huevos Rio Grande Valley

I am not an aficionado of the watery ranchera sauce restaurants like to make. I like mine thick, and chunky.  This is a Rio Grande Valley sauce.  I originally got the idea from Silvia's Kitchen in Houston, near Dairy Ashford and Westheimer.  

This meal starts with my 99 cent blue plate. I have been getting a lot of comments on it on alt.binary.food.  Corn tortillas lightly fried, with refried black beans. Topped with two fried eggs and my Rio Grand Valley sauce.

Shakshuka made at home.

Blue Plate Special

Omalet (2 eggs and egg whites) with onions, garlic, jalapeños,  sharp chedder and tomatoes.  Not shown is the homemade green salsa.
