I ate the side salad and then realized I hadn't taken a picture of it. It had the best croutons EVAR. They were some sort of dark brown bread.
Edit: Kelly says the croutons are pumpernickel. :D

So here’s what I did with most of the rest of the salsa:
I still have a little left, which hopefully I will eat today, in some form or fashion.
Since joining Oasis Garden‘s CSA, I’ve had more and more interesting produce to try and create dishes with. It’s forced me to be more creative with what I have on hand.
The past two weeks there’s been a mango in my box. I still had both of them as of tonight, so I decided I’d better use the oldest one.
A recipe for Avocado-Mango Salsa was included in last week’s box. I didn’t have all the ingredients so I omitted some and substituted others. Here’s what I ended up doing–and it’s amazingly delicious! I’m going to eat some with chips tonight and save the rest to go with fish tomorrow.
1 mango, peeled, seeded and diced
1/2 tomato, diced
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced
3/4 c chopped onion
1 T white sugar
1 T olive oil
2 T white wine vinegar
1 avocado, peeled, pitted and diced
1 tsp salt
Toss first seven ingredients together, then fold in avocado. Season with salt.
Twitter and Facebook both seem to be down. My head may explode from the pressure of all these unposted tweets and status updates…
Random Macross Frontier character: Alto, you need to stop leading those girls on.
Alto: What do you mean?
RMFC: You know; Sheryl and Ranka.
Alto: Yes, I know them.
RMFC: No. You know.
Alto: I have no idea what you’re talking about.
RMFC: It’s not fair to them, Alto. You’re being a jerk.
Alto: No, seriously. What?
RMFC: This clueless act is endearing…really. But you’ve played a woman in kabuki; you should know better, Princess.
Alto: Don’t call me Princess!
RMFC: I’ve figured it out. Because you identify with women, you don’t want to hurt them. So you put off making a decision. But don’t you realize that by doing that, you’re hurting both of them? At least if you pick one, the one you pick won’t be hurt.
Alto: If you don’t start making sense, I’m going to have to give up on this conversation.
RMFC: Pick one. Who are you going to kiss? Sheryl, or Ranka?
Alto (embarrassed): I’ve already kissed both of them.
RMFC: Okay, fine; ignore my clever OP song reference. Which one are you going to date?
Alto: I don’t understand.
RMFC: Most people in our society are monogamous, Alto.
Alto: That’s a big word. But I don’t see what it has to do with me.
RMFC: So you’re saying you’re a bigamist?
Alto: Oooh, another big word.
RMFC: …
Alto: Look, this has been fascinating, but I’d like to go fly my Valkyrie now. See you.
Me: A watched pot never boils. Ever.
Sean: I see little bubbles forming.
