Say - an envelope with some mysterious reddish powder showed up at my
office the other day. I haven't opened it yet - that will be done
tomorrow (Thursday) at the weekly luncheon meeting of the Illinois
Chilli Society. I do enjoy sharing with my friends - and they never know
what I will bring next for show-and-tell.
Last week it was the bonus bottle of "Fiery Hot Habanero Sauce" that I
got as a bonus in my order from Mild to Wild. Definitely hot - but,
either not as hot as I expected - or, I am developing more of a jones
than I thought. And sweet, too. All who tried it approved.
BTW - if y'all have the weekend of July 15th & 16th open there is going
to be a gathering of foodies, chileheads and natural foods folks in my
back lot.... My sister and I are hosting a picnic on Sunday the 16th
which won't, strictly speaking, be a hot-luck. But, several of the
foodies are 'heads - some even members (or former) of this list so heat
will not be out of place.
For those who want to spend an overnighter - I am working on a group
discount at a decent motel. And any head who wishes to judge the
Illinois State Championship Chilli Cook-off (ICS) on Saturday the 15th
has a blanket invite from the organizers. I am ditching that cook-off to
host the picnic - but, I'll probably judge.
Even though people from both coasts, Canadia and (maybe) Mexico will be
at this deal - it's just an informal gathering of friend who have met
over the electrons in cyber-space.
The only people not welcome are food cops. <GGG>
ENJOY!!!
