    Just found this thread - COOL!   I am going to Indianapolis next week for Masters swimming Spring National Champs. I'll be doing the 50, 100 and 200 backstroke individual events, and also doing the back leg of two medley relays. I had intended to do breaststroke, too, but a fall on ice hosed an...

      WHAT????????   Me? I care about rice.   Ok, I care about ONE kind of rice - Texmati basmati rice.   Not just any basmati rice, just Texmati basmati.    I try not to buy Texmati basmati rice, 'cause I mostly stay away from starches.   But I could eat Texmati basmati rice three meals a day.   ...

    [Apr 30] What are you working on this week?

    Getting ready for the USMS spring national champs in Indy. Will be swimming May 11, 12 and 13. Can't wait to see how my races turn out, as my times have dropped pretty drastically in the past couple of months. Also can't wait to meet back up with swimming and running friends from other...

    food Sandwich of the Month

    I so rarely eat sammiches. I keep a loaf of bread in the freezer. When I want to make a sammich for lunch, I slap stuff on some frozen bread in the morning and, similar to your approach, it's thawed and ready to be eaten come lunchtime. I just don't freeze the insides else who knows how many...

    What's the sweetest chilli?

    You really can't go wrong with a c. baccatum.        Not a formal name at all, but I consider aji habaneros (a baccatum) to be a "snacking pepper." Meaning that, while I'm watering and otherwise tending to my plants when there are ripe aji habaneros to be had, I tend to pull and eat them as I...

    food Sandwich of the Month

    I liked those, because I'd like to be liking them today.   Tomorrow? Not so much.   Don't the buns get all soggy that way?  :think:   Dang.   I almost forgot to double-space this.   Can't be single-spacing a post about TB's food.   Nosirree.

    water Spraying plants with water?

    Chile plants don't really need a lot of help in making fruit "set", as they are self-pollinators. If you are growing indoors, once the plants begin to bloom, you can a) give the pots a good thumping - enough to shake the plant, b) run a fan on them (ideally, oscillating), andor c) just run your...

    Interesting. But why not just use the upside-down standard can opener trick? Works every time!

    Got my CCN order yesterday. Today I remembered what drama queens Tsakoniki eggplant plants can be. They will be fine, but geesh! So glad the chile plants aren't like that!

    Somehow, I suspect I'd like Chip, if I met him. What's not to like about a man who goes after bears with a chainsaw???

    This Scorpion plant must be an introvert.

      That should fix it for new leaves. The old leaves will retain their warped appearance, but should be fine.    Seems kind of odd to be talking about new and old leaves for such a young plant, but you know what I mean.  :think:

    Pics suck, but it is what it is. Top just shows the seasonings that floated on the pork and liquid in the crock pot. Middle just shows a tortilla that just hit the pan. Sorry hoggy, but I don't care for tortillas with burnt spots. Bottom is assembled. Kept it simple - meat and hot pickled okra -...

    heat In The News: Chili grower defends world's hottest pepper after man who ate one was hospitalized

    Interesting. So I am curious..... I've never eaten a reaper as I don't like the flavors of most super-hots. But I've eaten T-Scorps and such. Never had intense pain for "an hour or two" following eating one. Anyone here eaten a reaper and had intense pain for "an hour or two"?

    My prayers for both of them. I worked with two women, in the past, who had the same thing happen. CJ is strong and can recover from this. Recovery is about the process - it won't go quickly and it will be frustrating, but recovery will happen. My hope is for strength and patience to handle the...

    It's been a long time since I pulled my tortilla press out of the cabinet, but it's still a beauty.   And not one gram of wheat flour has ever been harmed in its use.   Tonight was no exception.   Onliest thing is that blue corn tortillas look rather grey in the evening and I didn't feel like...

    Eating the core isn't bad. It can be tough and fibrous, so most peeps don't eat uncooked core. And since not eaten raw, it's not familiar cooked, either. Me? I only rarely eat pineapple because it is too acidic - more than a few small pieces literally results in mild acid burn in my mouth -...
