@Devil Doc, cut those Jalapenos into slices and marinate in tequila in the fridge. Two (2) slices in a margarita make it mo bettah.
I’ll do it. Sounds like fun, I mean sounds like it would taste good.View attachment 7112

Thanks for the tip. Before the apocalypse I would take peppers to work to give away. A neighbor grows peppers from his country Nepal and we used to swap but mine apparently weren’t hot enough so we stopped.@Devil Doc
Too many hot peppers? Candy them. Great little condiment. Sweet and hot.
A Google search brings up all kinds of recipes, but here’s one that produces some good stuff. You can do them for the reefer for short-term or full canning routine for a year storage. DH likes these on a turkey sandwich.
It's probably both.I’ll do it. Sounds like fun, I mean sounds like it would taste good.
Raise your hand if you knew what "Stare Decisis Doctrine" was, before this SCOTUS hearing.
I sure didn't. It's a good week. I learned something.

And worth every penny at that!3 teens reeled in a 10-foot-long bluefin tuna weighing more than 1,000 pounds
Earlier this month, three teens found themselves hooked into something big.www.kcci.com
Bluefin tuna sells for about $40 per pound, by the way.

Jack Daniels distillery - two great standouts from this tour about 20 years ago. First, they make their own charcoal for filtering. They have rickers who stack milled oak into stacks about 5 feet tall and burn them so the coals are uniformly created. Second was shortly after that, in the filtering room they show you a barrel with the charcoal that is actively filtering the whiskey, the barrel has a plexiglass lid and the tour guide lifts and closes the lid rapidly for a few seconds and the malty, smoky, whiskey aroma wafts through the air, the entire group is captivated and is looking for glasses to drink the air.Since we are in the ET drawer, the previous post made me think of other good “brand name tours.”
Celestial Seasonings tea in Boulder, CO. Interesting. There is a gallery with the original paintings of all the artwork on their boxes. It’s also fun when they have you stand behind a safety line halfway across the facility, warning buzzers sound, guys in full face coverings roll up the door to the massive Mint Storage Room, and a concentrated blast of mint whacks you.
Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream, Waterbury, VT. You get to see the flavor of the day made, and, of course, taste it.
Any others?
I missed the Martin tour when DW and both DS's visited a couple of years ago. She's been hankering for a Martin ever since and her surprise Martin bday present showed up yesterday. Now if I can keep from giving it to her over a month early.Surly Brewing is very near my home and a great tour. Let's just say they are not always particularly disciplined about quantity management during the tasting section of the tour.
A few years ago I had to kill a half day in eastern PA while my DD was off with the Admissions people. I went on the Martin Guitar factory tour and it was fantastic (and free!) You end up walking through the aisles very near the people doing tiny, delicate work. It felt like the Waterford Crystal tours in Ireland except you get way closer to the workers. The museum and factory are closed for Covid now, but there are a bunch of versions of the tour online.
