    Hi Shawn,

    I think he has adjusted quite well. There are enough other spices he
    can use on his foods that add flavor instead of heat.

    That's alright then.

    Yes, I've not heard him say anything about missing the hot stuff.


    The family friendly chili I make is usually on the mild side but I generally bring an assortment of heat/heat levels for those that want
    it. Brought some habenero pepper powder once, labelled "hab". A friend
    saw it, thought it said "hot" and used it generously. He soon found
    out how hot it was. (G)

    OH NO!! That's why on my home made hot sauce I don't label other
    then: X or XX or XXX. My co worker from sri lanka says my XXX is
    quite mild and tasty. Everyone else says it will burn tastebuds from
    your mouth, then find your mother and burn her's off too.

    (G) One of the first recipies I printed off when I joined the echo was
    for a Psuedo-Melinda's Hot Sauce, using habenero peppers. Steve made it
    a number of times when the girls were home, and continues to make it
    now. In 2003 when she was deployed, our younger daughter asked that we
    mail her a bottle, so it went, with other goodies as well. When she got
    it, different guys in her unit thought they were macho enough to handle
    it, but found out they were wrong. Her CO (commanding officer) was
    raised in India and bragged about how he could take heat so she offered
    him a taste of the sauce. He found a sauce that bested him. (G)


    I only made it once, and gave the rest of the batch to her and she probably put it on cereal.

    If we take any to church, I warn parents not to let their young children
    to try it, sometimes drawing a skull & cross bones on the bottle.


    varieties of peppers I use. I try for a medium, all the way thru the
    mouth feeling of heat but do let those who don't like heat that it may
    be hotter than they prefer, but well worth a try.

    I would like that.

    It has placed a number of times, outright winning once in our church
    super bowl chili cook off. The year it won, I had beef, elk and goat in
    it.

    For sure, but the popcorn aroma would still waft thru the halls. The
    dorm I lived in 3 1/2 years was torn down a while ago but the one I
    first lived in (one semester) is still standing....and probably still setting off smoke detectors.

    Laugh, I bet you are right.

    We're going up for a reunion next year, may ask about it.

    Hello Ruth!

    That's good.

    I like the flavour of the habenero, however I probably don't use as many as the recipe calls for. :)

    Laugh. Nice! That serves the CO right. :)

    Smart - no one can yell at you that way.

    in it.

    I wish I could eat meat. I'm going to try some agian this weekend and see how I do.

    We're going up for a reunion next year, may ask about it.

    That should be fun.

    ... If it weren't for C, we'd be using Pasal, BASI, and OBOL.

    Yes, as long as he's made the adjustment and is happy about it, there's
    nothing to be concerned with.

    I understand he was a pretty good guy anyway, just that Deborah caught
    him by surprise with the heat of the sauce we sent her.

    As long as they've looked at the bottle, they can't blame me.

    Hopefully all will go well. We've gone vegetarian for a week or so at a
    time (complimentary proteins) but usually never longer than that.

    That should be fun.

    I'm looking forward to it.
