The New Katie Song


My Katie Jo has stinky toes
And she has boogers in her nose
And when I wipe them on her clothes
Then her toes, nose, and clothes are gross

We are all the time making up stupid songs around here. Calla says I'm ruining her life by posting this. At this age, I guess I'm ruining her life about 17 times a day. How much fun is that!

Nicky's Fresh Salsa (mild)


8 medium tomatoes (normal for grocery store/medium out of the garden)
1/2 red onion
2 ancient red peppers
3 tablespoons garlic (from the little glass jars)
Whole bunch of cilantro (tops only)
1 lime
Salt to taste

Core tomatoes. Peel lime. Throw it all in the processor together. Add salt slowly. The amount of salt seems to be the key difference in how people like this recipe. Kinda stir it around and pick out any lime seeds you may see or offer a prize to any one who finds one - more salsa. The lime pulp is good for you and keep your salsa twice as fresh as the juice alone.
