I sauteed peppers and ginger and then added chipotle hot sauce to some local shrimp I made served over quinoa, it was so good and not too hot either. We also had some flavorful apricots from the farmer's market. We're getting lots of rain here which gives me a reprieve from watering, more time for playing with clay.
