Green Tea and Guacamole

What? Your breakfast is better?

In truth, I only had a few bites - quality control! But the tea was good. (I had some Trader O's too)

Why was I making guacamole at 7 in the morning you ask? Because I have a big mouth, and last night at happy hour with the work crew I mentioned that I like to make guac...in fact, I'll bring it to work tomorrow for our big company meeting. Dummy.

But I do love guac, and it gave me an excuse to use the new ceramic knife Adam's parents gave me.

Cut's like a Knife! (But it feels so right)

The knife is amazing. I love it. 

I also love this: 

I wonder how many of my posts are on guac...

Tino was drooling.

Give me Some Guac!

And because it was the morning, and I had been drinking poor man's coffee (tea), I left this mess for after work. 

Sigh.

Friday Eve and It Feels So Good

I've got to say, this week has not been bad. But something about it has just been blah. And I've been eagerly anticipating the weekend since 8AM Monday morning. Maybe it's because I had such a lovely weekend last weekend and I'm anticipating something similar for this upcoming weekend. Hmm....

Last night I finally got around to watching The Wrestler. Man! It was definitely not a feel-good movie, and at times it was downright uncomfortable to watch, but it was great. I've been wanting to watch it for a long time, and I was not disappointed.

But before movie night, the Man Friend and I made a semi-Mexican feast. It was awesome! Steak! Guac! Barbecued green onions! Stuffed poblano peppers! You know I went to town on the guac...

Take a look suckers:

Guacamole. I'm not exaggerating by saying I could eat this every day.

Before: Steak seasoned with lime, garlic and chili powder


After:

Try not to lick the screen.

Action shot!

The Man Friend got a new ceramic knife for Christmas. I'm not jealous.

Stuffed poblanos with goat cheese, rice, corn and black beans. Also sprinkled with Cotija cheese.

Next time I'm adding more cheese.

There are Green Onions Hiding in this picture.

Olive Oil + Salt + Pepper makes everything taste better :)

Not pictured? Several bottles of Tecate with lime.

All in all? Not a bad way to spend a quiet Wednesday night.

Tonight? Participating in San Diego's Restaurant Week. We have reservations at Bankers Hill Bar and Restaurant. Excited, I am.
