Amy's can suck it!

In the morning with Edie, we rode the bike to Wholefoods to complete the food shopping for the week. Got a side of salmon curing in the fridge to bring to B's family on Saturday. Made tea for chilling early, guacamole in the morning, cookies in the afternoon for more ice cream sandwiches.

Finally busted out some of my burritos in the freezer for dinner, they heated up perfectly in the microwave. SO much better than Amy's. The wholewheat tortilla came out soft and and pliable, unlike Amy's which tend to be hard and crunchy in a non-fresh way. I used a lot less fillings than Amy's which made it a lot neater, but still had a nice balance of tortilla-to-filling in the mouth. The beans I spent a day simmering were much more complex tasting, and the morel-infused long-grain brown rice give a nice tone. Next time, gonna use short grain brown and experiment with it's flavor.

The guacamole I made to go with it tasted a little bit flat when I made it, but definitely improved a little by sitting in the fridge for a a few hours. Just mashed guac, diced sweet onion, diced cilantro, fresh lime juice and a pinch of salt -- maybe a jalapeno could improve matters.

Fell asleep on the couch for a few hours after dinner and giving Edles a bath, and when I woke up, the gals were asleep. Wah!
