Farmer's Market on Dudley Common

I love the Farmer's Market. I believe that you should buy fresh meats, fresh fruits and vegetables...mostly what you need...on a day by day basis. At least week by week. I wish we had open air markets here like they do in Europe and other places. I only say Europe because those are the only ones that I've seen for myself. It was fantastic walking through and seeing people seeling fresh everything and handmade this and that. I love it. Here are some red and green tomatoes, garlic, basil, cucumbers, and green peppers (fresh peppers smell SOOOO damn good mmm mmm mmm) that I bought like last week I think. They're gone I'm sure cuz I use the stuff as soon as possible, but I go there often. Yesterday I went and copped a few things including some eggplant. I love makin eggplant parmesan. I cook a lot I think I'll start putting up step by step instructions on how to make easy stuff in the future. Trust me I am no gourmet cook but I got sick of eating junk all the time and started figuring out how to make yummy things on my own. I'm having a fantastic time experimenting. I'll make sure I share someday soon :)

Salsa Chicken

Copped this Salsa Chicken from a little cafe over the weekend and me and my mom tore it up. It was soooo good. I decided I wanted to try and recreate it and we looked through it picking apart the ingredients. Last night I went through with it and besides too much cilantro for my mothers taste (I did it purposely because I LOVE cilantro) I think I did a pretty good job. I thought that I had a picture of mine but I apparently forgot to take one. I'll either update this post at some point or post it later so you can see the comparison and tell me what you think. lol.

Fishing on Revere Beach?

A coworker and I decided to have lunch on Revere Beach last week. There was a guy sitting in a lawn chair flanked my fishing poles. We laughed our asses off and talked hella shit about how no one is catching anything on Revere Beach. Then there was a tug. We joked that it was trash or seaweed...then he pulled this big ass fish out. Shut us right the fuck up. We went over and talked to him and he told us he'd seen people catch 30 pounders out there. Needless to say I need to start learning to shut my trap sometimes. lol


Goodwill Steal

Snatched these Enzo Angiolini's from Goodwill over the weekend...brand spankin new....for $9.99. That wasn't the price, but the cashier was being lazy and didn't want to take the time out to look at anyones price tags and was just entering whatever she saw fit. I looked at my receipt afterwards and she'd just entered "corporate shoes". Whatever. Fantastic gain for the collection :)





Aren't they cute?
