not just yet

Thankfully, today is not the day I lose my mind and start rampaging down the freeway with a rocket launcher and a bunch of turkey buzzards. (Though I know some of you are disappointed by this statement.) My windshield was fixed up nicely by a funny ex-Marine who came out to my office exactly when he said he would. I spent twenty minutes hanging out on the curb, talking about brisket, California, and the travesty of putting brown gravy on a chicken fried steak.

It's been a much better day. I did leave my Jujy fruits at home, which is sad because Tyler gave me a lot of candy to improve my mood last night. I also watched Mrs. Harris again, which has some of the finest Annette Benning and Ben Kingsley action you're likely to ever see.

Tonight I must procure milk, and tomatillos for the Dueling Salsa showdown happening in my apartment on Thursday. Fish tacos! Salsa! Friends! Few nights can boast so many happy things all at once.

You must share your fish tacos+salsa recipes!

I will obtain Tyler's. I know his is a variation on Ninfa's green sauce. (Oh man and we have some super fresh avocados too) The fish we are using is bass my father caught down in south Texas.

Oh my god, it's all about the ingredients. I miss Ninfa's - the original location was near my parents' house in Houston.

I don't know proportions at the moment, but we used tomatillos, green tomatoes, jalapenos, onions, garlic, cilantro, avocado and sour cream. The vegetables were roasted in the oven for extra tastiness.
