    The pointy smaller ones are usually hotter.  Even so a lot of the grocery store jalapenos are pretty tame even here on the border. Look yummy 

    Agreed and thanks!

    The Latin grocery stores have good peppers sometimes. When I grew peppers, I'd  dice up Thai chiles, and add 'em to the cheese mixture.

  2. Jalapeno poppers on the gasser for a late lunch. They taste good, but the heat is non-existent. 

     😡

    I quit growing them years ago and it's always hit or miss at the grocery store, heat-wise.

  3. Here's a summertime recipe that you may like. 

     

    The  recipe has been in the family for years. I'm not sure where it came from.

     

    After it's frozen, scoop it into any size glass, about 2 3rds full,  slap 3-4 mint leaves in your hands to release the oils, stick the leaves in the mixture, top with 7-Up or ginger ale and garnish with a sprig of mint.   You can top with more bourbon, if desired😉

     

    Use cheap bourbon and keep the proof no higher than 90.  I use Ancient Age 10, or Evan Williams Black.  Be careful,  these go down real easy....

    Everyone is limited to 1 day of practice. Man they are really limiting the fans this year. 

    Yeah...but STH can get tickets for other days when they're made available for everyone else starting tomorrow.     Each person can get up to 6 tickets, so you can give some out...but that still kinda/sorta sucks because you can only get one parking pass.

    Was getting my battery wall installed today.  Spent the whole day with my cats to make sure they were less nervous (scared to death of people they dont know).  Went smooth until they turned power back on.  All the workmen more or less came inside simultaneously and in the ensuing scramble, lost a cat.

     

    Multiple hours of searching, inside, outside (hes scared to death of outside...still tho hes more scared of humans).  Finally found him.  He figured out how to open a lower kitchen cabinet, close it behind himself, and was hiding behind a wok.

    It's amazing how they figure out new places to hide....

    Certain poster’s opinions on bourbon can safely be ignored.

    Oh, that post was most certainly not directed at you miss. I happen to be quite the fan of sunny d screwdrivers. 

     It's all good.

    You like what you like....if we all liked the same things it would be a pretty boring world..🍻

    Believe it or not, they're in your grocer's freezer :ols: 

    They're called Mary B's, and they taste good too.  About 23 minutes in the toaster oven (I broil 'em for about a minute at the end to brown 'em a little more). 

    My grandmother that I'm named after made the best biscuits on the planet--I really should've paid closer attention.  🙄 I've never baked well, and I can accept that. 

    Thanks!

    I'm not much of a baker either, that's 

    Thankfully,  Mrs. Skinsfan is is really good at baking...

    Do you drink it any other way but as shot?

    I drink whiskey straight.

    If it's high proof, I'll pour it over a cube or with a splash.  Once in a while I'll make an Old Fashioned, but I use rye in those. 

    The thing to keep in mind is that our palates change, sometimes a few times a day.  What tastes great one day, doesn't taste good another day...it happens all the time. That's why I don't give up on a bottle until I've had a few pours.

    That works out great for our son, because he likes whiskey and he gets  the bottles that I give up on.

    I just gave him a bottle of Bib & Tucker,  and Tarnished Truth, so I think the little **** is hoping that I don't like some of the stuff I buy. Those pics are only some of what I have in the bunker and I have more whiskey than I can drink in my lifetime🙂

    Trash bro.

    Acceptable. But I agree, a tad sweet.

    Trash? 😂

    WT101 is very good whiskey.. better than Buffalo Trace. People who don't know any better 🤔 turn their noses up at it because that's what their Dads and Grandparents drank.  That and they equate price with quality. There's  reason that those legacy brands have been around so long.  

    I have a few backups that you may find acceptable😉

    I'd like to apologize to @CommanderInTheRyeas well as everyone else on the board for my behavior today.

     

    My father passed away on Sunday and it's been a rough week. Today has been especially tough as I've been doing funeral planning so I've been in a terrible mood all day. But that's no excuse for taking it out on the people in this community.

    I'm very sorry for your loss.
