Icarus's blog: "Somantics"

Its actually quite warm in here right now.

So ... my power outage and internet outage this morning ate my last blog post, so I'll give you the gist of it

Spent $20 on beans, potatos and whole tilapia.

Moving on.

So, tonight I made the potato variant of what I had been eating over and over and over and over again

sofrito (onions, peppers, tomato)
oil
cumin
pimenton
salt
black beans
and just a small amount of chorizo

I took 2 russet potatos, cubed and boiled, tossed them into my sofrito and spices and beans
and some reserve starchy water from the initial boil (enough to cover)

brought the combo to a simmer- covered and put it on low heat for 20 minutes.

Hwaaaa

so creamy
it'd be better with some dairy and stock in it
like... a trillion times better
bacon would work too.

Anyway, came out kinda funky looking all mushy and yellow, but it was tastey.

Probably could've used some olive oil at the finish too.

And some greens like, chives or parsley.

I haven't checked my mail since this morning... but I can't wait to get rejected for that case manager job.
