Today is no exception.</p> <p>Abuelita always said that when people are sick it’s a good idea to feed them something spicy, both hot and flavorful, so they can taste their food and want to eat, but also to raise their body temperature a few degrees so they can run a low fever and sweat it out. She claims that cinnamon, nutmeg, and hot peppers do this best.</p> <p>I’m not much of a recipe person as I just rummage around the refri for ingredients, grab fistfuls and pinches of things, and throw them into pots, but here’s a post of what today’s cooking produced.</p> <p><strong>Ingredients and preparation</strong></p> <ul><li>Grape seed oil</li> <li>1 yellow onion, coarsely chopped</li> <li>1 ripe acorn squash, guts scraped out, peeled, and cut into big chunks</li> <li>4 carrots, sliced</li> <li>2 or 3 big handfuls of frozen yellow and white sweet corn</li> <li>dry spices to taste: cinnamon, nutmeg, cayenne, ginger, mustard, sweet basil, black pepper</li> <li>1 14.5 oz (411g) can of diced tomatoes</li> <li>1 28 oz (794g) can of diced tomatoes</li> <li>Enough water to cover what’s in pot</li> <li>2 or 3 cups dry lentils, rinsed</li> <li>2 or 3 tablespoons pumpkin seed oil</li> <li>1 big handful of raisins</li> </ul><p><strong>What goes in the pot and when</strong><strong><br/></strong></p> <ul><li>Put chopped yellow onion with some grape seed oil in pot and cook until soft.</li> <li>Throw in the acorn squash and mix until squash starts to turn a brighter orange.</li> <li>Add carrots, frozen corn, and spices. Stir until everything starts to steam, soften a bit, and smell delicious.</li> <li>Mix in diced tomatoes and add enough water to cover what’s in the pot.</li> <li>Add lentils, pumpkin seed oil, and raisins.</li> <li>Cover and bring to a boil.</li> <li>Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes or until lentils are desired tenderness. </li> </ul>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17561593690http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17561593690Mon, 13 Feb 2012 14:33:00 -0500foodvegetarianveganrecipe<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcbdzyxY21qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Girl with fluff and crystals ends the backlog of sketchbook pages to post.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17555056095http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17555056095Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:34:47 -0500drawingillustrationprismacolor<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcbabDB5z1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Reclining girl?</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554983676http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554983676Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:32:35 -0500pencildrawingsketchillustration<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcb88e4lM1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Faces and notes.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554941787http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554941787Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:31:20 -0500sketchpencildrawingillustration<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcb4m9i7f1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>More imaginary faces.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554866807http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554866807Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:29:09 -0500sketchdrawingpencilillustration<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcb0i13eB1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Some sort of big burly ogre guy.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554786822http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554786822Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:26:42 -0500sketchdrawingillustationpencil<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcaw1aBOV1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Baba Jaga and two cute girls.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554697442http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554697442Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:24:01 -0500sketchillustrationpencilinkdrawing<img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzcatrZP221qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Weird little things.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554653591http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17554653591Mon, 13 Feb 2012 11:22:39 -0500sketchillustrationdrawingink<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzc8bggD471qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Some preliminary character sketches for a collaborative animation project I’m part of.</p> <p>I’m probably going to post a lot today since I am sick and hiding in bed chugging tea with lime and honey.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17552934527http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17552934527Mon, 13 Feb 2012 10:28:28 -0500sketchdrawingpencilillustration<p>Indeed I am.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17290632265http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17290632265Wed, 08 Feb 2012 19:30:00 -0500<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz3dkeLDBo1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Awkward panorama taken from under the installation.</p> <p>Better photos when gallery lighting is set.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17277038556http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17277038556Wed, 08 Feb 2012 15:43:26 -0500printmakinginstallationscreenprintingsculpturepaper<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz365mngRt1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Upholstering some wall circles with painted, printed, and embroidered stuff.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17270527695http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17270527695Wed, 08 Feb 2012 13:03:22 -0500progressprintmakingpaintingscreenprintingupholstery<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz1ns7QACe1qbt7i1o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Staging for hanging everything.</p>http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17228839266http://diario.naomi-maria.com/post/17228839266Tue, 07 Feb 2012 17:28:55 -0500printmakingscreenprintingprogresssculpture
