I simply stopped frequenting this site. And I met some awesome folks through it. I recently got a reminder about judging at ZESTFEST 2013 in Irving, TX. And I'm definitely IN. I'm actually wearing my Sicman Spices T-shirt as a type this... that may have been a throw-away gift, but it meant a lot to me... and still does. I wear it proudly all north Texas. Alabama Jack! Any of my brief friends still around?
