pepper
Q I was just eating a fresh red pepper cut up in strips, mixed among strips of a green and a yellow pepper. It felt like something I would do as a kid after working in my grandpa's pepper fields. It felt good then. 041206

Sintina we made fajita-stuffed bell peppers
one night
together.

I love cooking with you.

epitome of incomprehensibility Same word for two things that, in their usable form at least, taste markedly different. 140605

raze i've been having a harder time remembering my dreams lately, but in one of last night's half-forgotten vignettes i heckled my mother for never taking responsibility for anything and always finding a way to paint herself as the victim.

it's a neat trick if you can pull it off. bullies lean on it all the time.

she smirked, but i knew i'd struck a nerve. i sang a reworked version of "smoke on the water" called "stuffed in the martyr". i imagined her as a human bell pepper, hollowed out and packed with duplicity and an inflamed digestive tract. she didn't sing along.

i guess she wasn't ready to come out of the oven yet.
