A good day. Plans for yard work dashed by unexpected rains this morning- makes for perfect napping weather.
Tomatillos, 2 lbs for 99 cents. What a bargain! I love the Food 4 Less. They have the elusive epazote in large quantities- plus all sorts of other cheap Mexican ingredients. Masa harina, 5 lb bags, 2 for $3. Mexican oregano. Jalepenos by the bushel. Corn husks... Piloncillo... Crema... La Lechera... Queso... Queso... Queso... Oh joy, the queso.
And pork loin. Succulent, succulent pork loin. For the bestest ever food of all time and space. Rick Bayless's tomatillo braised pork loin.
Onions, 4 lbs for 99 cents. Holy cow, so cheap. I doubled the recipe to serve 12. (Equivalent to 3 Davy servings.) And it'll still be less than $15 total for this entire meal. So delicious.
Taters. Earthy earthy taters. At this time, I started humming to myself in anticipation... giddy with excitement, squeaking each time the meat thermometer ticked forward another digit towards 145. Singing an out of tune pork song. I tend to sing a lot of out of tune pork songs.
Pork + Booze = Happy
So happy.
