    Good morning, Bar Buddies.

    I hid today's bottle behind the dead plant in the corner near the pistachio machine.
    By the way, I know 5 cents is a bargain for a handful of pistachios but didn't they stop dying pistachios red in the '80's.

    i have to sit at the computer too.. pesky clients bringing me money! But asap, I'm out the door, the places I go always have had "social distancing" and the sun scours any puny virus in seconds too. My favorite place might just be me, the bartendress, and a cold beverage.

    I can finally test my hypothesis that bluegill stunt from lack of food through competition rather than overcrowding. My ponds are filling with babies quickly. May have to eat some fish soon. It looks like I won't have to buy or catch anymore gills.

    Certainly beats cotton Q tips and that wasn’t as cute and funny as Fredo wanted it to be.

    How many of you are laboring today? A holiday called Labor Day how odd is that? When I was a child I thought it meant you had to work silly me..

    The pineapple adds a little sweet tang to the Stubbs.
    A big BBQ is like a roller coater ride for me. There is always the potential for disaster - especially if something distracts me.

    My new favorite ingredient for chili: just make your recipe less spicy, then be generous with it.

    Will order a bottle.
    McCormack's Mexican Chili Powder can also add punch to chili.

    And then there's Slap Ya Mama...

    I learned my lesson, last year. I ended up with several expired boxes of microwave popcorn, from Halloween. This year, I got something that I won't have any problem with eating any leftovers.

    When I had to buy Halloween treats my rule was only to buy what I would eat. Worked except for the pounds.
