I'm not sure this whole master deal is all its cracked up to be.

Allegedly, I'm the master, and Snark is the cat. At night, have to lean something against my bedroom door so she can go in and out at will. Hold that thought, she just strolled in with one of those finger brushes, which I'
m taking as a sign to brush her teeth. Would it be nice if someone brushed my teeth for me? Well, maybe not, I guess that would be the dentist.

Wandering Jew

I pinched off the growing leaves on several of the shoots of my Wandering Jew plant. Hopefully this will encourage them to branch out. I will have to remember to check in a few weeks.

Yum, leftovers!

Lunch today was shredded beef w/ mango salsa on corn tortilla. The tortilla was a definite improvment over the soy monstrosityies of last night.

Aparently Douglas comes from Dubhghlas in Gaelic. Dubhghals comes from Gaelic dubh "dark" and glais "water, river". This translates into "dark river" or "blood river". How sanguine. Apparently Dubhglas is a river where a particularly bloody battle occured. Dubhglas then became a Scottish surname beloging to a powerful line of Scottish earls. Perhaps your name will be a little lighter, you can check at Behind the Name

My Japanese name is だぐらす,　ダグラス, 黒川, pronounced dagurasu, meaning "dark river" again.

Well, its done. I had left-over mango-ginger salsa from a birthday party last Friday, and it went quite well with the highland beef. The soy tortillas were highly disapointing. They were almost palatable if cooked just right... Maybe I will try 1/2 soy 1/2 whole-wheat next time.

The highland beef was delicious (Oishii おいしい), much better than the standard supermarket drivel.

I'm cleaning my room while the beef cooks, as well as playing around with iTunes scripts.

Obviously it needs some work. I wonder if you can define your own template variables.

Shredded Beef with Homemade Soy Flour Tortilla Tacos

On the menu today is shredded beef tacos. I have had great success with the recipe from here. I'm using Beef Chuck Eye from Fountain prairie Farms that I picked up a few months ago at the Dane County Farmers' Market. If I recall correctly, it was around 3 pounds at $ 5.xx something a pound. Somewhere I have a price sheet.

I'm also going to try making my own tortillas. I'm going to try all soy flour, and if that doesn't turn out well, half soy and half whole-wheat flour.

Anyway, the pot is on the stove, boiling away. I crushed the peppercorns the recipe calls for in my motar and pestle, as well as some dried hot peppers. I think I used about a half-dozen peppers... it will be interesting to see how it turns out, as I have never tried crushing them before.

Here goes nothing.

I have decided to track my cooking exploits, as well as whatever else, in a blog. Isn't that special.
