So maybe I used a little leeway in the title and -dirt on, dirt off –
would have been more accurate, but the hand action is the same.
There is dirty, then there is dirty.
So just how dirty was it? Seeing is believing.
Wax On, Wax Off
They Did It Their Way
The local green waste area. By my way of thinking, but I could be wrong, shouldn’t people dump their waste as far back in the area as possible? And what about the pile of dirt? Am I wrong in thinking dirt doesn’t fall under the classification of green waste? There is also a large sign saying No Plastic in two languages, still there are a number of plastic bottles back there. We dumped our two tarps of green waste as far back as possible. Are some of these people just thoughtless, or do they simply not care?
Not Another Two Skunk Night!!
Do we have two skunks or just one? Our cameras recorded a visit on the night of the 15th at approximately 2:20 (2:20 AM) and again at 5:05 (5:05 AM). My way of thinking is it’s one skunk making its nightly rounds. One of these mornings I’m going to get out of bed early ( I’m usually awake sometime between 3:30 and 4:00 (3:30 and 4:00 AM) and go out and sit on our patio, then maybe see Mr. , Mrs., Miss or Ms. skunk, hopefully avoiding any unpleasant skunk to human interchanges.
A Two Skunk Night
Living as close to the Mexican border as we do, we have multiple security cameras that we have set to record any motion at night around our property. This is NOT because we feel unsafe, rather it just to know what goes on after dark when we are settled into bed like two bugs in a rug, The below video is from one of our cameras focused on our garden area, the area featured in our recent “jungle” posts.
Salsa Time
Time to make some roasted salsa. That’s tomatoes, garlic, onion, poblano pepper and jalapeno pepper beginning to roast to a nice char.
All went into the blender, then salt, lime juice and fresh cilantro was added.
It’s a little bit of work, but the result is definitely worth it. And you know what makes it ever better? Putting that just made salsa into a Mexican bowl, dipping one of our homemade chips into it and knowing you just can’t buy something premade that is this good.
