Besides, either it's this, or I find some way to take a photo of all the DUST that's been blowing around for 'bout the past month now.
Do you think that I kid you about the dust? I assure you I do not kid about the dust.
UPDATE: Luckily, dust-encrusted nerves can always be soothed through the magic of roasted red peppers marinated in vinaigrette with Roma tomatoes and garlic.
I do not, of course, eat them as pictured above. I have only arranged them like that for your benefit. Normally I consume them straight from the Tupperware, because I am that low-rent, yes, but also because they are just that good.

Posted by: Ith at April 6, 2006 07:05 PMWhat Hubris said! Vine-ripened? I like avocado and vine-ripened Creole tomatoes marinated in red wine vinaigrette but roasted red peppers and vine-ripened Romas is something I devour, too. I'd need a little more than you have pictured there, though.

Albertson's!
(Hey, it's a small town. We don't know from no vine-ripened.)
Posted by: ilyka at April 7, 2006 01:04 PMAiiieee...Dust! Yesterday truly sucked here in P-Town: wind speed of 35 mph steady, 55 mph gusts. The air was tan, all frickin' day long. And it's all over and in everything. Today is a bit better, but still not good.
Got any of them peppers left?
:-)
