"My Favorite" Herb/Spice sent/received thread....COMPLETED!!

[Mi3stooges]

And I received mine on Thursday (I think it was Thursday ). Thank you! I will post late tonight what I received. I'm off to two church services, a district church event, dinner at my dad's and a chorale rehearsal before I get back on the computer tonight... in between reading research, writing a paper and writing checks...

I hope you liked what I sent....waiting to hear!!

Hopefully Sandy will have time to give us a list of what she received

And hopefully we will hear of a couple more arrivals soon.

 

[Papa Deuce]

Yup!



Since I am the only one (or one of very few) that plays in the SW, I figured this one was headed my way. It was!!!

Chuck (who knew he had a real name ), our very own Papa Deuce, sent me an awesome collection of peppers and spices.

I got:

Cookshack's Spicy Barbecue Sauce Mix (will get put to use over Memorial Day Weekend for sure!)
HomeBBQ.com's BBQ Beef Rub and Grill which smells divine. DH better finish that built in grill soon!
Jalapeno/cliantro dip mix (2 of my favorite flavors!!)
And assorted dried peppers with explanations and warnings written on the bags:
New Mexico chiles which are medium heat
Chipolte peppers which are smoked jalpenos
Habanero peppers which came with the warning SUPER HOT!!!

Fortunately, thanks to DH's gardening skills, I am well versed at working with peppers. I have a box of rubber gloves in the kitchen just for pepper work! In fact in about 3 months, I'll be canning peppers and making pepper jellies. The habanero jellies are awesome (if I do say so myself)!

And I also had a recipe for Posole, a traditional Mexican dish (thick soup) with handwritten notations where Chuck has made adjustments to the recipe. I can't wait to try this. We love soups and stews in this family.

Thanks for everything Chuck!

You're welcome.... and now I see the irony of what I sent....... All traditional SW stuff to a person who lives in the SW! Doh!

Posole recipe? What was I thinking?

Not to worry. If it makes you feel better, we have only lived here for the last 18 months. While I grew up in TX, I haven't lived anywhere near the SW since I graduated from HS 20 years ago (OMG, I'm getting old!!!!). Thanks to the military, I have lived in CO, the Philippines, ID, FL, NE and LA before moving here.

And suprisingly enough, I had not heard of Posole (although I have heard of all the ingredients! ) until you sent me the recipe. It looks awesome, and the "adjustments" you made to the recipe are the same ones I would make. You can never have too much garlic!

Mmm I love Pozole.

I make the traditional Mexican one that my Mom makes
