Red beans and rice was a success, even though I tried to make it healthier by adding more vegetables and less meat, and 2/3 wild rice to 1/3 white rice. Maaaybe used a little too much cayenne, but forewarned is forearmed.

Connie, it's basically, "Don't fear the reaper."

I do love the College of Arms.

Shit. I was going to do my taxes this weekend, wasn't I? And I just had to call a help line because I couldn't remember what my username and password are for the bank because they made me change it recently, but now I have my 1099INT.
Ugh.
We had frijoles charros from one of my favorite cook books, Not Your Mother's Slow Cooker cook book. Easy recipe and utterly delicious. My wife - who spent formative years in Mexico and Venezuela and is therefore insufferably difficult to please when it comes to Latin food of any type - said it was very authentic and good (though she did not approve of my additions of Greek yogurt and cheese at the table, but I do what I want. She liked my homemade corn tortillas though.)
If you have a slow cooker you should get this book. Some of the recipes are not great for "leave it in all day while at work", but many of them are, and everything we have made has been delicious, especially bean dishes. The baked beans are phenomenal for example.

There's still plenty of Andouille sausage in there.
I like more veggies. I mean, I like my meat, but I've gotten very picky about it. Vegs, I love playing with them. So many flavors.
Federal return filed! Now onto State.
