Utz’s Spanish Tortilla

snapshotsincursive

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Country Casual Cravings: Utz’s Spanish Tortilla! I like to talk with servers at restaurants. More often than not, they reveal significant tidbits about recipe ingredients or preparation that send my mind spinning. For example: Did you know instead of adding hash brown potatoes to an omelet you can substitute potato chips? When folded into a beaten egg mixture, they thicken the omelet while keeping it light and airy at the same time. It’s pure genius. After all, everyone has a bag of potato chips stashed somewhere.

Mas eu, em cuja alma se refletem As forças dadas do universo, Em cuja reflexão emotiva e sacudida Minuto a minuto, emoção a emoção, Coisas antagônicas e absurdas se sucedem … Eu o foco inútil de todas as realidades, Eu o fantasma nascido de todas as sensações, Eu o abstrato, eu o projeto no écran, […]

In all of us there is a hunger, marrow deep, to know our heritage – to know who we are and where we came from. Without this enriching knowledge, there is a hollow yearning. No matter what our attainments in life, there is still a vacuum, an emptiness, and the most disquieting loneliness.” — Alex Haley, Roots

Never forget your history, for it paves the way to your future. When I began my research to gather more information about my genealogy tree, I realized there remain many untold stories and mysteries that are buried in time. Why the secrets? Why the lack of discussions? I wished I thought about asking those questions many years before I asked them, especially when so many family members were alive.
