Fickle Fork of Fate

New Year Notes

Both my sites seem to be chock full of the Y210K bug. It must be a Drupal thing. I will get Mikey on it when I get a chance.

If you're wondering what a Forkbastard eats for New Year's Eve dinner, a few Don Miguel chicken flautas from Costco and a shameful bachelor chicken patty sandwich. What can I say? I wanted to keep the kitchen clean and needed to use up some stuff. Plus, I wasn't going anywhere, on purpose.

I need to find an excuse to use Rancho Gordo New Mexico Red Chile Powder.

Oh, and a pound of their Old Mother Stallard beans.

Oh, and the rest of those short ribs.

Also, the Spicy Baja burger at Smashburger is good, in the way that anything is good if you put guacamole and pepper jack and sliced jalapenos on it. Not sure it works as a glorious burger, though, and about one time in three, sliced jalapenos (fresh or pickled) do to my colon what Dick Cheney did to the Constitution. So there is a fair amount of risk-benefit calculation that will go into ordering it again.

Happy new year, or at least, as happy a new year as you can manage considering I just made you think about my colon.
