I have an enormous amount of Thai chilis still ripening in November. I brought a couple of the plants inside to try and winter over. But the most prolific of the Thai chilis just is not thriving in the transition! Which is no worry, I […]
I made nachos the other day that are virtually identical to these. After all, I name all of my recipes after the ingredients in them. This makes it easier to find what you’re looking for and cuts down on the flowery language that serves only […]
It is a gloomy, gloomy day. There has been a risk of 42-57% risk of thunderstorms all day. Yet, no rain has appeared. It has just gloomier and greyer throughout the day. There is currently a car parked outside, very optimistically with its sun roof […]
I didn’t start out intending to make enchilada sauce with Thai chilis. I planted a bunch of different peppers this spring, but we’ve had a particularly odd summer season! It snowed in April and we had frost well into May. Summer didn’t really seem to […]

I have been on a Mexican food kick. I tend to do this in the late summer and early fall when all of the peppers and tomatoes start to ripen. But I woke up yesterday morning with the energy to make Slow Cooker Black Beans and […]
IntI spent all of last year making enchilada sauce! And I have finally gotten to the point where my peppers and tomatoes are ripening. Wisconsin had a horrendous spring this year with snow in April and frost well into May! So, all of the slow […]
