Sunday

 

Hi Natty!  How are you today?  How are the mountains?  Ah, I kind of miss mountain weather.  I hope you are having a marvelous time, and keeping yourself safe and healthy.  It's Sunday over here for me.  I had an interesting morning.  Early morning, about 4 am.  I always wake up early to do some extra worship then computer work.  I hadn't turned anything on yet, and I always flip the switches on the power strips as well so nothing is dormant.  But the speakers had life to them though, they were crackling and buzzing even though there was no power going to them.  No, they don't run on rechargeable batteries.

I have a feeling you like jicama, Natty.  It's a refreshing flavor, and yet people seldom use them in salads.  I think the trick is to use them as the body of the salad, like lettuce.  So I made a jicama and tomato salad.  I cut the jicama into strips like the photo above, and the tomatoes into thin slices.  I julienned kaffir lime leaves for punch and added them into the mix.  I suppose you could use basil, but it's not the same.  I have a kaffir lime tree in my yard.  It never fruits, but I'm not interested in the fruit.  I like the nice tender shoots.  Anyway, that's all there is: jicama, tomatoes, and kaffir lime leaves.  For dressing is soy sauce and some lime/lemon juice, with a dash of black pepper.  Mix it up and serve immediately, don't let it sit and get soggy.  It's an awesome salad, I think you would like it.

Whoops!  I forgot to turn on ALM (Advanced Light Model) for the snapshots!  Mary's outfit today is:
