Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Had I not known, I would have guessed you have a brother. You may have been lucky, but I was far too negatively acclimated to the smell of socks. Also? Old onion smells remind me of my brother's teenage years.

Excuse me now that I'm not hungry.

Our wings are not tired.

I don't think I have consumed white peppercorns. My love for the black variety is great so I won't be rushing to try them either.

{{JZ}} Financial stress is so hard. No advice however since I have the debt beyond reasonable levels too. I have no budgeting skills whatsoever.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

There's a flavor aspect to white pepper? Oh, then I am totally going to have to get some. I thought it was just aesthetic.

They're the same corns, but they're processed differently. White peppercorns are more mature, and have had the black outer hull removed.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

All's I know is there is 4 times more white pepper than black pepper in a good cajun spice rub. Mostly it's paprika, chili, and red, but there's way more white than black, and only a tiny bit of salt.

Tomorrow will be a bad day. On the upside, people have made it easier on me by getting my to do list done without me having to do anything. On the downside I pushed all my list aside for scotch and puppy kisses.

Seriously, today until 7:30, tomorrow until 8:00. Out of town until Sunday and then late hours until I drive home to Louisiana for Christmas, and then back and back to long hours until NYE , where I will play pretty hostess.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Now I need to buy white peppercorns and do a taste test. Lord knows I have more than one salt, having multiple peppers makes sense.

My love for GA S1 will just have to wait, I suppose. grump

Go you, msbelle. I am not being so strong.
