Soundtrack was a gut-punch. It’s a truly ugly chapter of history, and it’s made even more so when witnesses recount Eisenhower ordering the assassination of Patrice Lumumba. And of course, the music is incredible. Louis Armstrong, Abbey Lincoln, Dizzy Gillespie, Coltrane and more.

The U.S. didn’t directly kill Lumumba. But only because someone else got there first.

I love guacamole. This is a recipe based on one of my favorite versions:

https://sagealphagal.com/homemade-guacamole-inspired-by-boudros/

It looks good, as long it isn't too spicy for me.

I don’t think I have ever had spicy guacamole. Even with peppers, everything seems creamy to me.

I have, though I am also sensitive to heat.  Fortunately it doesn't happen very often.

Does one say congratulations for tax returns being accepted?

If so, congratulations!

To the tune of “Cheek to Cheek”.

Posting, I’m here posting,

And I’ll call page seven Rupert if I may.

Too few pages and there will be hell to pay.

I had never tried Mexican food until I moved to Phoenix in 1975.

The Arizona State Fair was going on, so I decided to check it out with a friend.

We bought tamales.

Having never eaten a tamale, I bit right into the corn husk, not knowing it was meant to be discarded.
