NYC home. Yeah, that's cool. What's up, Sweetheart? Are you chillin'? I'm writing a letter. These letters are important, not just to you and me, so I spend a lot of time writing. I spent the evening cutting grass around your house inshaAllah. Grass sure grows fast around here. There's some clover, but they only just got started after the long drought, so if I keep the other grass short, then the clover can take over. Until the next drought. There's no running water over there, and if there were running water, I wouldn't be able to water the clover regularly. Bananas grow like mad there, though. Monkey food. Do you want a pet monkey? I might be able to get you one. I don't want it, though.
I'm just trying my best to live honorably. Integrity is such a difficult life, but you do get used to it. I'm just keeping the faith, I keep on trekkin', a little bit each day and inshaAllah, there will be a house someday. A house for the woman I love. I love you and I need you. So don't let the actions and words of those who race each other into the abyss grieve you. You are my girl.
Today I spent the morning in the kitchen. I made a little tutorial on peeling bamboo shoots. Bamboo shoots are bitter when fresh, so I marinade them in salt until the bitterness goes away. My Mom likes them bitter. I told her I was going to give her some bamboo shoots, and she asked "Fresh or sour?" They're fresh, Mom. I also made mole sauce. You and I know that mole sauce and avocados are a heavenly match. I had rice with chicken in mole sauce for dinner. I actually didn't have enough chocolate, so I added Milo (malted chocolate powder) instead. Worked great. Just keep on adding Milo until the sauce turns sweet.
Do you like Bob Marley? I posted "The Redemption Song" for you here. I don't agree with the statues, but the performance is great. Now please excuse me, I must spend some time practicing bass.
