Marriage Booster Weekend
Hubby and I, on a last minute whim, hooked up the camper and went to the cheapest and closest campground.
We set up camp to enjoy each other's company for a marriage booster weekend. We really wanted to ferry over to our favorite island, but work told us a different story.
Hubby and I try to get time with each other several times a year.

Salsa Tasting
Okay, I lied about letting the zucchini salsa sit. We popped open a jar already. Now, I did pretty much follow the recipe, but I diced up 2 jalapenos and 2 hot banana peppers and added them (to the marinade early on).
If you like medium to hot salsa, definitely add some hot peppers. We loved this salsa. It's very thick, so I think I can safely leave the corn starch out next batch (if I get enough zucchini to make it again). I drained the veggies very well and I also drained my roma tomatoes after I chopped them up, before boiling everything.
