Had fun visiting this new shop with Gail a bit back here in Santa Fe called Lion and Honey. Those bubble waffles and Hungarian mushroom soup are a must! The owner was coo and he is an amazing artist!!
We chilled on Ortega Lane with Julio and his peeps and some of our peeps not long ago. Those guys are super funny and tacos and a Bloody Mary made it even better!! I loved the pic with all our shadows as Julio cooked up some kick ass traditional discada. We were on a mission and being spied on by the eye in the sky behind a santero’s creation.
Seriously though… the chicken fried steak I made this weekend was amazing. I experimented using organic buckwheat and coconut flour to dust the steaks and coconut oil to cook them. This tasty idea is a keeper.
We had a great time at Russ and Christina’s Halloween dinner party. Christina took the time to decorate almost every room of their home and their yard with the help of Russ. She made a paper mâché scarecrow to look like the crazy monster in the movie Jeepers Creepers and it looked amazing! He is in the opening of this video. She also made special bird skeletons to add to her decor as well as several other handmade creations. Her table scapes and drink creations were to die for and she really left no detail untouched. I have to recognize her wicked creativity… without a doubt and really enjoyed this get together with some of our fellow gym junkies.
We had a good Thanksgiving dinner. I had the guys make farolitos and we made a fire, so it was cozy. I love candles and had 50+ strewn about the living room. They highlighted my mythology table, dragonology table and wizard corner. I made some cute center pieces that were easy to make. We all contributed food, but I made an orange and honey glazed ham, bacon corn, honey glazed carrots, sweet potatoes with candied pecans, Jim Beam honey bourbon apple cider with cinnamon sticks, a smoked oyster and cheese platter, and toasted pistachio pudding. I think the pudding was a big hit. I had Mike torch it so the marshmellows, sliced almonds and turbinado sugar got toasted up. That was good!
Lover of REALNESS... smart people with large brains... strong people with human weakness... all things divine and magical... and anything that makes my heart beat, my mind race, my body hurt, or my soul ache.
