Miraflores, Lima, Peru

June 2010: Lima, Peru

A view of Miraflores Park from our suite
...and slightly to the left, the Pacific and the cliffs of Lima
Me, gazing somewhere
Gorgeous homes and boutiques abound in Miraflores

a revelation

watermelon rinds, quickly blanched, then sprinkled with sea salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, freshly cut chives, minced garlic, a squeeze of lemon juice, a splash of soy sauce, and a splash of apple cider vinegar, then left to stew in its juices for a week = the best kimchi I've ever had.

i used to enjoy making people balk by saying that watermelon was the only food i didn't like, but now i'll have to change that.
