That would make a fine compound! Sorry about the closed border, Jess.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Timelies all!
My parents are visiting this weekend(Mr. S's birthday is on Monday), so much cleaning needs to be done tonight.

What I need is something that's as healthy as the apple slices, and gives me the same pleasant mouth-burning feeling as the ghost pepper corn chips.

Have you tried just eating straight peppers, chrismg?
My laptop kindly informed me that it needed to plugin or it would hibernate, so I stopped work for a moment for that, fed the cat, and opened a beer. Am also congratulating myself on not answering "that sounds like a you problem" when someone in another department asked how I'd like to handle a shortshipped order. I really don't see how that's any of my business, I though.

I actually like the dried bell pepper chips they sell in the salad section, but they have basically no kick to them. And I don't like the texture of raw peppers - the crunchiness of the apple slices is part of the appeal. I suppose I could try soaking the slices in chili oil or something....

That was going to be my next suggestion

Sprinkle tajin on apple slices maybe?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Popcorn with hot sauce on it? The bits with the hot sauce get soggy but the overall effect is still crunchy.

Because books.
I am such a wimp with spicy food, as in I can't eat any of it. Like, some things at Taco Bell are too hot for me. ::sheepish:: So Carolina Reaper, whatever that is, paired with ghost peppers... Yikes.
