Absolutely positively 100% fresh salsa!

 SO. today I really was in the mood to make something absolutely deliciously yummy. Oh wait, I am always in that mood. But seriously, today was sunny, and I was hungry, so I made a quick trip to Smith's (well, as quick as it could be with my own 2 legs..), bought a conglomeration of tasty vegetables, and threw them all in my food processor...quite literally :) Here is my new found recipe for absolutely positively 100% fresh salsa!!! Yum yum yum. I am SO in love with my food processor. Seriously, its kind of a problem. If that little beauty ever leaves me, it would take my heart right with it. I'm hoping our relationship lasts a good long time.
Anyway enjoy the salsa! Let me know of any suggestions you may have...I am always looking for new ideas.

All processed!!

Num num num. I could eat this all day long. Oh wait, I just did.

This is my very best friend. Seriously, it has saved my life many a time. Isn't it cute?? :)
