...And stuff.

Hee, my lil brother decided he wanted to start a blitzball file, so I stuck a copy of mine on one of my other memcards and reset it....and boy, is he right: The beginning is SLOOOOOW. But I knew that already.
Still going on the Steel tourney, specifically the Medium-Tank division. Blue beat Canada last night (that battle was lame) and ANZAC got their bye; got USA vs. India going right now, and India's units don't have cannon, so we know how that's gonna turn out.
Also, sometime in the next day or two, I'm gonna make some pico-de-gallo. See, Mom made some "California Salsa" from a recipe lilbro found/recieved for a report he was doing in school, which went thusly:
9 cups tomato, diced
3 jalapeños, seeded and chopped
2 cups green onion, sliced
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
1/2 cup lemon-juice
6 cloves garlic, chopped finely
Now, they cut the recipe in half since that apparently makes an assload - the half-recipe barely fit in one of our largest bowls; they also turned some of the green onion into whit. Issues I have with this recipe:
1) WAY too much tomato.
2) Green onions are a weaksauce flavour, easily buried.
3) Prolly not enough cilantro. (Bobby Flay, eat yer heart out)
4) Couldn't taste the garlic!
Overall, the spice-level was nearly nonexistent. Since we had some tomato and cilantro left over, Mom told me to have her get whatever ingredients needed replacing and make my own version, which will go thusly:
2 tomatoes (not sure what volume that'll end up being and don't much care)
1 large jalapeño
1/4 or 1/3 cup combined white and yellow onion (colour, woo!)
1/4 or 1/3 cup cilantro
1/6 cup lemon-juice
3 cloves garlic, possibly more depending
Hopefully it'll turn out a bit less weaksauce and more woo. :9
