Happy Birthday, sara!
See, I'm used to a relleno made with hatch green chiles and stuffed with queso. This one? A monstrous poblano, stuffed with queso and shredded chicken and chiles and omigawd, it is good but it is the size of a very robust chicken breat! HUGE.I'm used to the same kind but damn, yours sound so good right now...
I'm finally getting my car washed. I'd forgotten what color it is.Urban Haze.

I'd forgotten what color it is.
When I first drove my current car while I was shopping, it was so dusty (from sitting in the lot, I guess) I thought it was charcoal grey. Nope. Black. The dealer had planned to wholesale it, so they hadn't cleaned it or anything. Not like I cared, really....

It was a really good relleno, though I'd never seen one like THAT before.
Also, when I was at Target, they have these foam stamps for stamping designs in paint on the wall. They had a large dragonfly one. I couldn't resist. I mean, I don't have any walls I want to stamp it on YET, but someday I will, right? It would be really cool in a bathroom, I think.

My car is clean now. The only downside is that with finally getting it washed I can now see the amazing number of door dings and scratches that I'm picked up while I've owned it.

It was a really good relleno, though I'd never seen one like THAT before.When I moved to Arizona (I have no idea if it was an AZ *thing* or just happened at that time), my gf's grandma loved this Mexican restaurant and their rellenos. Which had meat in them. I blinked several times and then just consoled myself with the theory that it was an AU thing where there was this word that sounded just like "relleno" and looked a lot like a "relleno" but really meant entirely different thing, a meat-filled relleno. It made dinner easier.
I just watered outside and I think that there is a crack in the ground that is not so much a sign of water-dep as a fissure in the earth. Mostly because it continued up a brick wall and through a built-in brick bbq. I gave it extra water anyway because I figured the water would have easier access to roots with the crack already there. I think growing up on the San Andreas warped me. Not so much "the sky is falling" as "the ground is opening ... cool".

I don't know, Cass. I don't like those.

I don't know, Cass. I don't like those.Meat-filled rellenos? Yeah, they just seem wrong to me to but I don't want to be a hater.
The possible indication of a fault thing is much less troubling to me as San Diego is pretty much on bedrock. It's comforting.
edit: MeaT, not meaR. Because meara-filled rellenos would be spicy, but wrong.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I don't think I've ever had a relleno.
My dinner tonight was cheap Indian -- can of chickpeas, half a bag of frozen cauliflower, half a jar of curry sauce, plus brown basmati rice. Not terribly fancy, but tasty enough, and it used all ingredients that I already had.
My plan to not buy anything this week was thwarted by the existence of a book called The Givenchy Code, with the blurb "Cryptography is the new black" and "a heel-breaking adventure in code-breaking that will bring out the math geek and the fashionista in you." It's like the entire cover of this book was designed specifically to make me buy it. (I started reading it. It's decent so far.)
