i'm not sure if this is really embarrassing

yeah i've been taking photos for months now. and had all these posts and recipes i've been meaning to write up. and it still ain't happened. so that's the short version and hopefully i'll be back with more soon.

tomorrow: the world's biggest nachos!
yes since tomatillo season i've fallen back in love with salsa making and melted cheese and good old black beans and guacamole and and.. when did i ever fall out of love? so for the missus's birthday it seemed an easy thing to whip up for a crowd. though there's the chocolate chilli ice cream to make too.

meanwhile, i've been getting inspired by the ever evolving food security/re-localisation movement. yay for community gardens and seed saving and no-gmo zones in india and farmers markets in remote colombia and the people's grocery in west oakland and the good old co-op market in collingwood. and to all the folks who came to last week's cities feeding people: grow it where you live conference and got me all excited again.

ps - pie queen, i used your hamentaschen recipe again only this time i forgot the eggs and it was even better. the apricot filling was as good as ever and i found a poppyseed recipe that was delicious.
