Market.Watch.2010 | 15Jan

i’m liking this.  i’m hoping to like it enough to get me to hollywood early on a sunday.  we’ll see.

Going to my local Farmers’ Market was kinda fun this week, even though, I didn’t really get very much.  I think Tigress’ Can Jam has me in a citrus haze.  And, I’m, apparently,  buying things I grow in my window.  Hey, Cilantro.  I forgot to buy tomatoes and forgot to shoot the onions.  I didn’t realize they were still in the tote until post-orange attack.

Alas, gone already from this week’s haul are ALL of the Blood Oranges and the Cilantro.

I’m into using an entire bunch of Cilantro like greens.  I had a lovely fish/cilantro/coconut curry this afternoon.  No recipe.  Just tilapia, a huge onion, garlic, cilantro, a bit of tomato paste, coconut milk, water, curry powder, salt and crushed red pepper.  It’s really whatever I have on hand.  And I’m brand specific when it comes to the curry powder.  I was raised eating mostly West Indian curries, so I get antsy if I don’t have any Blue Mountain in the house.

I’m staring at the huge container of my beloved Jamaican curry powder and thinking about the broccoli.  Ahhh, dinner just popped into my head.

this one’s for you | la xmas

it was nice today.  it had been cold, rainy and so fun free.

Here’s how we do the holidays in my part of town.  I’ll be around for the rest of the month writing about pretty much whatever crosses my mind.
