Almost there..

While I was making my farm fresh cilantro salsa tonight, I was doing a little thinking about why I have so many problems following through on my blogs. I have a fear of expressing myself. I know what I want to say but I’m just afraid to say it. I think it boils down to my past and the people who were in it. I’m not going down that road  right now and I’m not sure I ever will, but at least I can recognize where all my insecurities might be stemming from.

Anyway, I have a ton of ideas and thoughts I want to put out there and overtime I guess I’ll do just that. One thing I have to keep in mind is that it’s not that difficult to do what I want to do in life. The only person stopping me is me. I love reading other people’s blogs and one thing I’ve noticed is that people, like myself, start blogs, post something here and there and then do nothing else. I don’t necessarily want to make money from my blog but hey if I do that, it would be great. The whole point of my blog is saying what I feel at any given time and about anything I want. I guess that’s what blogging is all about.

Fresh cilantro salsa…yumm

I just made a salsa recipe I had seen on the web. I tweaked it a little bit so can I guess I consider it my own recipe? Well hot dog isn’t that awesome.  I will call it farm fresh cilantro salsa, only because I used everything straight from the Farmers Market that I went to today.  I have to say I’m pretty proud of myself.

~ 4 medium ripe tomatoes

~ 2 hot chili peppers

~ 1 small sweet onion

~ 2 garlic cloves

~ 3 tbsp of fresh cilantro

~ 3 tbsp of lime juice

~ 1 tbsp of sugar

~ salt and pepper to taste

Mince onion and garlic and mix together in a small bowl. Boil 1/2 cup of water and add onion and garlic. Remove from heat and let simmer 3 minutes. Drain well.

Add together remaining ingredients and mix. Chill for approximately 2 to 3 hours to let juices set in.
