So you're telling me that without those extras you Chanticleer your plate, but rather squawk at the chef? Sounds like henpecking to me.
My wife accuses me of being unable to count calories.View attachment 992175If she saw this, she’d cluck about, then swipe a bite.

And maybe something a little spicier, like chile piquín. And onions and tomatoes.
Don’t forget the dousing of Tobasco!

Remington today

Got my Enigma in us2000 in pocket today. Came in handy at my kids skating lesson, new glasses means adjusting the helmet foam to accommodate them. I’m pretty sure they’re putting up their latest run tomorrow...

These today, and probably the rest of the week as well. No Uncle Henry fixed blade, so all 3 folders lock! Really liking the 127, I been on the fence about a case in this style, but all I can find locally are 2 blade, and I really wanted a single. Plus the price of the case been holding me of some to. Finding this Schrade USA one was a real treat. Really like the LB7 to, while not quite as "elegant" as the 110, it feels more robust to me. And that's say'n something!
 
This was an interesting experiment. I carried this Remington R5 today as my work team was volunteering at our area food bank (they do great work locally). The last time we did this was several years ago, and when I took out the knife I was carrying to break down some boxes (not enough box cutters to go around), a coworker gasped and asked why I had a “weapon”. I put it away and remarked “it is just a pocket knife” and moved on. The knife in question was a OHO.

This is a 3 inch lock back and very thin. We were opening boxes and packaging, and again not enough box cutters to go around. Someone asked to borrow the box cutter I was using, I said keep it as I was reaching into my pocket, and he said “you have a pocket knife? Great”. He wasn’t being sarcastic.

So I returned to the conveyor belt and continued to open boxes and packaging, but when I needed to take a box of food over to a pallet I left my knife on the conveyor belt (it wasn’t moving, we were just sorting cans and dry goods on it). People started using it without a thought, including our Chief Marketing Officer who remarked “That is nice, you must have been a Boy Scout”. I then got a little worried it was going to disappear :), but it was interesting to see their reaction to a traditional as opposed to the modern I used before. Not sure if it was the OHO itself, the size, or me opening it one-handed, but this little guy received either compliments or no reaction at all.

 
Tabasco is a staple in my house. Used some on my eggs this morning! May use a different Louisiana hot sauce tonight--having red beans and rice. (We usually have at least a dozen different hot sauces around, as well as fresh peppers, like jalapeños and chiltepines). Life needs spice!

I live about an hour and a half from Tabasco. Try lousiana crystal on your red beans. It’s milder flavor than Tabasco but I like the added vinegar flavor from putting more. I make a home made pepper relish also that’s not too sweet that I eat with red beans (or white, or black eye, or field peas). We love beans in this house. Lol

I'll put it on my grocery list. Thanks!
