On Friday nights, we cook Mexican food. We live in Toronto; it's a long way from Mexico.

Tacos ver. 1.4
My friend was asking me the other day about my camera lenses, specifically the one I use to shoot most of the pictures you see. It's a 50mm f/1.4, but I seldom shoot it at that aperture. I've usually got it parked at f/2.8 to get a little more depth of field in the photos. But this week I figured hey, let's open it wide up; everything you see is shot at f/1.4. So dial that aperture ring all the way down, and make the jump for tacos ver. 1.4!

Ersatz Taco Soup
Ever have an idea that was funnier in your head? I thought some black and white dithering would be funny. Oh well. Too late now! Getting Friday Night Mexican back to its roots as an easy to prepare meal on a Friday is something that we've obviously struggled with.
It can be done however. You just need to be prepared to sacrifice words like 'authentic', 'fresh', 'honest', and 'Mexican'. Those words are all overrated anyway. So if you've got limited time and energy and you want to phone it in like I'm obviously doing, print off the recipe and get to work on Taco Soup!
