I,ve never tasted blue corn.Is it the same as regular corn?

Depending on the cultivar, it's a flour or dent corn. It has about half again as much protein as yellow flour or dent corns. Flour and dent corns have about half the sugar as sweet corn -- the kind you eat on the cob.

To my taste it is less sweet than yellow cornmeals. In most traditional preparations, it is also cooked with culinary juniper ash. This frees the bound niacin and adds a bitterness. But if you buy commercial cornmeals, baking mixes, or chips there may be added sugars and other grains.

Good blue corn atole, tanaashgiizh or mush has ash. The flavor is starchy, a little smoky and a little bitter. It is yummy. Real piki -- a paper thin, Hopi bread made with blue corn meal and ash -- is one of the great and rare culinary treats of the Americas.

What is carne adovada, meat with something?

Carne adovada is a New Mexican delicacy. It is pork "cured" in red chile. It is strips of pork marinated in a sauce of ground red New Mexico chiles, broth, cumin, Mexican oregano, garlic, flour and a little oil. The pork is then slow roasted in the sauce, which thickens. It is used a a filling or topping, or eaten as cooked. It is rich, earthy and mildly to intensely spicy (depending on the heat of the chiles used).

I've waxed poetic about it before, LOL.

I remember the picture of the necklace you did and posted. I think highly of this necklace to be a really special piece. I can't forget about that composition like as caught by a rope and tied.

*Blush* Thank you.

That piece has been sold. All I have now is the picture.

What I think now, the English words are inadequate to express the thoughts. Even in German that isn't easy expressed.

Yeah, the folks on the Atlantic coast got hammered. Now they're going to get really cold. The extreme cold weather extends all through the middle and eastern US.

It's going take a lot of coffee, LOL.

I know this is late but, Happy New Year everyone!

As most of you know I live in the Mid-Atlantic area, which has been a frozen crap hole tundra since before Christmas. We got hammered by the "Bomb Cyclone" last week and right now we are starting to get hit with a storm that is wintry mix of ice, freezing rain, and snow. My entire winter break was spent largely indoors because we had extreme cold temps wth highs in the upper teens, lows in the lower single digits, and wind chills in the negatives for a few weeks now. I came back to work from break last Wednesday only to be off on Thursday and Friday because of the bomb cyclone. Luckily no power outages, just low temps and nonstop wind with gusts up to 45mph at times. Now I'm just waiting to see if they send us home early because the the evening commute is going to be terrible. I take a train in and out of the city everyday and I just know it'll be delay, delay, delay. Supposedly the extreme cold is on it's way out with temps going up to 55 this week and then falling to the averages by next week.

Anyway I'm just dragging my feet today as I'm sore as hell from a weekend of playing box lacrosse - took one hell of a check yesterday, which sent me flying off my feet and into the boards with a thunderous bang, which I managed to keep my head tucked in so I didn't get a concussion.

Now I'm going to continue to burp up the burrito I had for lunch. Everyone enjoy your day, stay warm, dry, and classy!
