pshaw_raven Monday is typically errand day. I need to make a couple of extra stops to pick up stuff to work on the ATV, and I'm headed out towards Fleming Island anyway so I was considering finding somewhere to get a burrito. I am craving a big-ass bean and rice burrito, dripping with guac and hot sauce. A chonker of a mission-style vegan burrito, is that too much to ask? Apparently, yes. The places I could typically get such a thing don't open until 11. Wawa makes a decent burrito, but for whatever reason, they go heavy on the rice and are kinda stingy with beans. I'm making a pot of vegan chili mac this afternoon anyway so maybe I'll just buy some tortillas and live with it.
I have a serrano pepper plant that's very happily growing in the compost bed. Considering it was a rescue from the dead plant rack at Home Depot it's doing very well, and I recently harvested about two dozen peppers from it. Problem is I don't cook with fresh serranos as often as with other peppers, so I wasn't sure what to do with them. I think I'm going to dehydrate them starting this evening. From what I've read, it can take about a day to completely dry halved peppers, and then you can grind them, if you wish, or toss the halves into stews and chilis. That compost also had some volunteers - a couple of unknown peppers that got "bitten" in the recent freezes we had, green onions, and a bok choy. By March I plan to dig out about half that bed and use the compost in two of them just to see how well re-mediated the soil is. I probably need to go ahead and start getting seed trays going soon, but I think the pumpkins need to be started in place. The cats would also appreciate another pot of cat grass.
