Probably - but the country potatoes smirk knowingly to themselves letting them think the city is where it's at... merely to keep them there and out of the country.

And tonight it's carnitas with more homemade salsa. I've been making salsa like crazy lately and putting it on everything. I learned how to make it "right". Cut an onion into quarters or so, peeled and throw it in a hot pan with whole jalepenoes, tomatoes, whatever else (passillo, tomatillo, etc - whatever you like.) Burn everything! You want it a fairly charred. Then cut the stemmy tops off the tomatoes and peppers and throw it all in the food processor with a bunch of cilantro, lime juice and salt to taste. Yummy yummy yummy.

My family is not veggie oriented - but they love this salsa. I make about 4 cups at a time and have made about 3 batches a week for the last 3 weeks. Salsa! Salsa! Salsa!
