Not quite as easy as I thought.

Easy?  Actually it is easy.  What I mean is not as...  Each part demanded more of my time, all along each dish, than I had supposed.  With practice it is possible I might have gotten tortillas done by now.  As is the refried beans are done, and for the first time in my many tries they are every bit as good as I have ever had them.  Simple and yet not.  The pork has, by the clock, about an hour and an half.  I just checked them and will again in an hour.  Checking new foods or foods new ways often is part of the learning.  Oh, I added too much lard to then add peanut oil... new processes are all on a learning curve.

I am deciding whether to start tortillas tonight or just hold off and do the finishing of all tomorrow.  I probably have the time.  Ah, but I want to chill the lard.  The butter is chilled.  The freezer would chill it quicker, but lard does not cool fast.  Hmm?  No.  I will figure how much lard to chill though, and set that to chill for tomorrow.  I'll keep on the kitchen, and figure out how best to store the meat unti tomorrow.

Not bad.  No major problems.  It was mostly steady work, as well as I could do, with good outcomes so far.  A few more hours and things should be almost done and cleaned for the night.  If it is as good as I suspect at closing time tonight tomorrow could be a reasonable end to a good week.  I am even possibly going to catch up on dishes before the night is through and tomorrow just to punk sloth.

Good night, don't suspect I'll be back this eve.
