Good day

A good day equals ...

walks to the park for an hour of reading....

a simple meal with Diary of a Foodie.....

wearing an apron and baking chocolate chip banana bread....



finding exactly what you were looking for while antiquing.

I love days off!

On another note, we are loving fresh salsa as well these days, so it is sad that this lovely fruit is soon to be out of season. Here is the recipe I like to use.



Fresh Tomato Salsa

3 good sized tomatoes, or a bunch of little ones
1/8 cup of diced onion (or more or less depending on your taste)
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
olive oil
chili powder
cumin
salt and pepper to taste
cilantro, chopped

Chop of tomatoes and toss with onion and jalapeno. Drain off some of the juice if you want, I found mine to be quite runny. Drizzle on a little olive oil (not to much or the olive flavor will over power the salsa). Season with spices to your taste. I say heavy on the chili powder and lighter on the cumin. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle on the cilantro and you are ready to eat. Enjoy!
