Lots of kitchen time today. Chocolate Guinness cucpakes with peanut butter frosting, salsa, guacamole and fajitas. Good times.

Salsa!

Salsa and guacamole is Adam's forte and I hope you don't think I'm saying the New Mexican condiments are a gender line in our house. If anything, the salsa/guac gig is his way of staking a claim on "native" status. Really, I try not to mention he was born in Kansas and moved here when he was two while my family's been here since before statehood. He gets this look in his eye, the one that means he died a little inside. So I let him have the salsa and guacamole rights in our kitchen and leave it at that.

Besides, he always looks so happy making it, and it's damn fine salsa, too. Salsa made for natives by a native.

Guinness cupcakes

The Chocolate Guinness cupcakes were my thing today. I don't know. I read about a new cupcake joint on the other side of town on the Fix last week, mentioned it to Adam who hinted that it's been a mighty long time since anyone made him a gourmet cupcake and somehow Gwyneth chimed in that I made a fine Guinness cake once and then talked about a friend's chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and suddenly these cupcakes materialized in the kitchen.

Between you and me, I'm awfully proud of them. Adam has eaten four as of this posting, hunched over each and ever one, clawing at anyone invading his cupcake territory. In this house, that counts as a success.
