  • It’s OK to add salsa picante (hot sauce) to salsa ranchera (cooked: canned or jarred salsa). That’s what I do to just about any canned, including my own. Mine is always sweet because it’s homegrown tomatoes that provide a lot of sugar and homegrown Anaheim and Hatch chile which never get super hot. Everyone can eat it out of the jar and I can just put picante in it to taste. But yeah, make a pico de gallo whenever you have the fresh veggies to mix it up. Cilantro is also called Coriander in the UK, perhaps Europe also.








  • I fished a wedding ring out of a basement shower drain with one of those flexible grabbers. Drain is made of iron pipe and embedded in concrete, so even demolition may have lost or destroyed the ring. It was past the trap and could be seen with a small snake camera. I had a flexible grabber that was spring all the way to the end, we stuck the camera in, and I got the ring after about 5 minutes of careful manuvering.
