It should not be 88 degrees in my living room, I'm calling the FBI.

This Weeks' Meals: Mexican Bento Box!

We got ourselves some tasty Carne Guisada, a nice helping of Mexican Rice (it's got tomoato paste, sorry, Mom), and Mom's low-cost fave an unnamed tomato and spinach concoction a friend dubbed "Mexi-saag."

I wish I'd made tortillas. :)

Recipes in the coments, since it's two recipes (The Mexi Saag? A can of tomatoes, a can of spinach, salt, pepper, and warm it up).

The 1.25 hour commute isn't too too bad when this is your view from the break room...

This Week's Meals: Indian Chicken Curry

This is a quick and wasy way to make a tasty dinner without a lot of time. I did this entire meal under an hour, which is great, because I'm under the gun right now, and had enough leftover time to write this.

It's not going to be a gourmet Indian curry, but it will be a tasty quick dish that hits the spot. Serve it over rice if you're not diabetic like me, and you have a good quick meal that's actually kinda fancy tasting.

Taken directly from the file "For Warren - Recipies you absolutely can't fuck up" because I don't have time to make it pretty:

Ingredients:
½ cup finely chopped onion
½ cup finely chopped celery
3 Tbs butter
3 Tbs flour
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup tomato juice
½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
salt & pepper, to taste
1 tsp curry powder
4 cups diced chicken
4 cups hot cooked rice

Instructions
Lightly brown onion & celery in hot fat.
Add flour and blend.
Add stock, cook until thick, stirring constantly.
Add tomato juice, Worcestershire sauce, seasonings and chicken.
Heat thoroughly. Serve over rice.

Had a very nice roadtrip today hugging the coast of the bay while visiting a few little towns in the area (Bayview, Edison). I needed to connect to some water, and get a few miles under my wheels.

I used to do this a lot, but with the long unemployment, tight money, no time and a somewhat sickly car, I hadn't done a drive in forever. And oh, boy does it show.

I feel amazing. Refreshed. Ready to take on tomorrow.

I need to do this way more often now that I have cash.

Where I am now:

It's wierd not getting amiibo from the Nintendo Store at NOA.

Also, MY BESTIE RIJU!
