Mk6: “FELON”
Inspiration for FELON: “Everyone copes with disappointment differently, and some of us use humor. Also it’s okay to try to equalize pain with more pain.”
The day after the election, left with no interest to watch news or learn more about the outcome, I went into my kitchen and started thinking about making an all-around spice centered Mexican style sauce. This was the first one that had a decent amount of spices added, but without any fruit: just fresh peppers (no fermented peppers used), tomatoes, lime, and spices. Delicious, useful, cathartic!
