Introduction:
I wanted to be a part of her storm.
I wanted to feel my pulse against hers.
I wanted the bitter on her sweet tongue.
I wanted the sadness in her sweet syrup eyes.
I wanted the silence in her screaming mind and the enigma that is really quite simple- a complicated happiness. I wasn't willing to let go. I was falling completely, forever, into solid fucking love that was swimming through my veins.
I wanted to be the breath in her mouth and the rhythm in her chest that would beat only for me.”
― Shey Stahl
Carne Guisada, Black Bean Soup, Mexican Rice, Green Beans w/Turkey Bacon & Salad
Carne Guisada is a Mexican recipe for marinated and then sautéed beef tips or skirt. Combine all the
marinade ingredients in a large Ziploc bag. Add the meat to the bag, squeeze
out as much air as you can and seal the bag. Let this marinate for at least 1
hour.
This is a flavorful and delicious meal that is great for a special occasion. This is my presentation of the meal.
When you’re
ready to brown the meat, remove it from the refrigerator about 30 minutes
before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. This helps ensure the
Carne Guisada will cook evenly. Cook in a pot until nicely browned and then remove to another container, in the left over juice sauté the onions and jalapeno's for ten minutes then add the garlic cook it for an additional minute. The add the meat and all the rest of the ingredients and cook slowly for about an hour.

I have added a brilliant blues song by Tony Tucker. There is nothing like eating so good food, drinking wine and listening to the blues.
Lyrics: "Wait For The Night To Turn Blue"
It's a cold, cold world, that we live in today
Everybody hurts, each in their own different ways
So many things, that tear you up inside
We all need a warm touch, somewhere safe to hide
So I sit here by the fire and hold on to the night
And listen to the song that you sing in my life
I'll sit under the moon, I'll wait here for you
Wait for the night to turn blue
I'll wait for the calm, on the easy side of midnight
My heart will sing the song, of the quiet endless starlight
And I'll forget about the pain, that eats me up inside
Come on take my hand and somewhere in the blues we'll hide
So I sit by the fire and hold on to the night
Listen to the song, that you sing in my life
I'll sit under the moon, I'll wait here for you
I'll wait for the night to turn blue
Oh yeh, wait for the night
Wait for the night to turn blue..
