“Saturday Afternoon Hike”

Saturday, June 6th, 2009
Guessing that these are chipmunk holes since I saw a couple along the trail earlier.

The following pictures are of the view of the city from the trail.  Los Angeles is so spread out and flat! It was a slightly cool, cloudy day which made it great for the hike.  We only made it half way up the trail though. I am slowly admiting to myself that both Jesse and Penny ... See Full Entry »

 

“Pork (in Pictures)”

Saturday, June 6th, 2009
Homemade pork carnitas with guacamole, sour cream, salsa, peppers and onions on a corn tortilla.

The carnitas didn't turn out as succulent and savory as I had hope, though it was still full of flavor and spice.  Maybe it was the lack of lard and frying (as in authentic carnitas).  If I make this again, I will use a fattier cut of meat. Speaking of fat pigs: Totally unrelated: I need to blog ... See Full Entry »

“Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas”

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009
The heavily seasoned pork is nearly obscured by the fresh cilantro.

It's been a while since I've used my slow cooker (crock pot), so it was only fitting that I break it back in with something big: carnitas! Living in Los Angeles, I eat a lot of Mexican food.  I love carnitas, carne asada, and my personal favorite, fresh chicharrones. When I first got the slow cooker, ... See Full Entry »
