Charles was enjoying the salsa more than he was talking with Camilla the other night. We were grilling burgers and brats for Labor Day and it was hard to get a word out of him because his mouth was always full because he was intent on consuming as much of the bowl of salsa as he could. His good manners made Camilla stalk out to the grill to cool off with Best Beloved (and huff a cig). Charles can’t be blamed for enjoying this delectable delight! In fact, he asked for a copy of the recipe, which is why we are back to doing a proper Food Friday. Here you go, sir!
