I got up early this morning and caught Sasquatch on my internet.
He found a recipe for grilled Cando with Pink Flamingo and chocolate basil sauce and was drooling all over the keyboard.

I called BR-549. ET answered from Jupier. He told me that He was making that same offer for only $20.00 and he'd throw in the moon Europa.(He's been watching TV ads.)
Like i've said VORT,You're a rascally booger.
I personally would not trust ET--
Me either. The big creepy fingers skeeve me out.
Vort, I've been camping out and i have truely missed you and the others of course.
I simply could not find your backyard.
I stopped at every Backyard in SE Texas. Every single backyard had a bar-b-que going. Texans will bar-b-que anything. One yard had bar-b-que asparagus. Another had bar-b-que alligator and rattlesnake. I never did figure out which one was yours Vort.
I had a weiner and marshmellow roast. When the odor spread a little, I heard a low growl.I knew it was bigfoot or ms bear. I shone my flashlight around but saw nothing. Then i heard it again a little louder. That was a bigfoot growl if i ever heard one. But no nothing again. All was quiet for awhile. NOTHING BUT SILENCE. Than everything returned to normal. I breathed a sigh of releif and had another marshmellow.(actually two) Than i heard the rustle of leaves right next to me. I looked down. There was a little weasil. He spoke quite clearly and said....Can i have a marshmellow?
LOL
I've been seeding, potting, up-potting, planting, transplanting, weeding, composting, mulching, pruning, slapping gnats, watering, fertilizing, building raised beds and trellises, sending weasels out on perimeter patrol and BBQing Roly Polys. Bigfoot eats them like popcorn.
Happy summer guys. :)
lol, been doin the same here, but adding, not only slapping gnats, but deer flies, and those green neon things that are smaller than a pea but hurt like a yellow jacket !
oh, and sweating alot ! and replacing the melted chocolate kiss's hanging from my Purple Ruffles*.(*thanks vort !)
I remember going fishing south of Deland many years ago--only a small part of me managed to escape back to Alabama--the deer flies chewed off the rest.
cando1 has been wandering around in the wilderness down in SE Tx while BF and I are spending the afternoons peacefully grilling and munching on BBQued Roly Polys in N. Central Tx. and just wondering why our little weasle has been gone for so long.
I've been busy training weasels to weed and cultivate my herb garden, whispering chocolatey things to my basil...mulching it with coco mulch...they sip iced mochaccinos under the patio furniture when they're not working.
put a little chocolate rum in those iced mochaccinos and I'll come pull weeds for you !
I never knew they had chocolate rum, who knew. I'd even bribe you with flourless chocolate cake with raspberry coulis. And rum if you want it. LOL I think I have Bacardi, some kind of dark.
I'm sure I could infuse the chocolate with basil. Hmmm....key lime and lime basil pie does NOT sound half bad.
Off to the kitchen to putter...

Vort !
Thanks for the recipe ! Got all the ingredients except instant coffee ( I don't do instant, I'll just brew some extra) and "real chocolate basil" , but I'll figure some way around that !

I'll be glad to send you a cup of fresh chopped chocolate basil for the measly sum of $1000 bucks.
I'll trade you some well composted horse poo !
The harvesting, chopping, packing and shipping of chocolate basil is personally supervised by Sir Sasquatch.
Sorry mjs but Texians only accept bull poo in trade--nice try
I am trying my best to not be depressed by the fact that over the years not one of my CB buddies have ever sent me one thin dime to purchase any of my "once in a lifetime" offers.
Oh well--I started off with nothing and still have most of it left.
Se La Vie
Wow, Vort, no calories in that recipe, are there? Sounds good, though. I'm not much of a drinker, but I do love a shot of Irish cream in my coffee every now and then.
Bigfoot is Irish? Who knew?
Angie
LOL-Angie
Bigfoot is all American but is of Irish and/or Scot descent--I think he his distantly related to Loch Nestle despite the lack of resemblance.
Even pure lard is not fattening or harmful if one eats only one teaspoon a year--so enjoy.
Cheers
Ew. Sasquatches out there doing shots of Irish/Scottish lard.
Celene
I know you guys think us Texians and Bigfoots ain't got no 'fistication but me and BF axually had Lardo at Mario Batali's Babbo Ristorante e Enoteca in NY.
They started not to let me in but BF made the doorman an offer he couldn't refuse.
"If the doorman let me in BF would let him keep both of his legs"
ps. The Lardo was really kinda yukky. It tasted a lot like pig fat marinated in Rosemary.
So when we got home we grilled a brisket and some Roly Polys
Yummm--- Texas soul food at it's best.
In fact we are at this very minute in the process of opening a restaurant with the signature dish to be BBQed Roly Polys smothered in chocolate basil sauce.
Not so much about sophistication, and a lot more about several decades as a vegetarian :) I had lardo in Italy when I was a girl, I was unimpressed. Salty herby fat, rather than just fat.
Hey Vort. Is Bigfoot wearing a chefs hat?
I love fried porkskins. Does that count? And of course hoghead cheese.
We like fried porkskins better than Lardo also. Especially if the source is a Razorback. :)
My how fast things can change.
"No. Carolina Man Claims Close Encounter With Blond Bigfoot"
Chef Sasquatch just read this and took off for N.C. to look for a good looking blond.
VORT, I left myself wideopen for that, HUH!!?
Can you imagine how mad mr.chef Bigfoot will be iffen he don't find that blonde? If you showed him that article, He may get mad at you.LOL
Computer has crashed----miss you folks--
I'll be baaaaaaak
Well here is the new thread the other one is far to long!!!
