  1. Blend hot soup without the top of the blender on. Was not pretty. I have an imersion blender now.
  2. On a speedboat. That show was horrific. I normally watch his stuff with my foodie son (has known he wants to be a chef since he was two. No, I did not push him. Really). I got about halfway through with him and turned it off and I am someone who has no issues with them hearing a bad word, or seeing life as it really is.
  3. The only problem I had with the Jamaica episode was the amount of time spent in the cave. I love Jamaica. I'm about to go back for my fifteenth time. There is something about it that speaks to me. It started as a tourist thing, although never in a gated resort, and is now a much deeper love. I've met the fishing boats in early morning to get the food for the dinner that night. I wish he'd shown that. The local artists, the diversity, the mix of new...the changes in the way the Jamaicans are cooking their foods in my lifetime with the advent of propane stoves in the country. He did show some of the Rastafarian lifestyle and that it goes much deeper than Ganja, and some of the ital food, but there is so much missing. Actually, a one hour show can't scratch the surface. It almost would have been better if they had called it the, Kingston, Jamaica episode. Since much of the show focused on Kingston. A part of Jamaica most tourists would never get to. A city I love, even though I've been robbed at gunpoint there. I think I need to start planning a trip.
  4. My local sporting good store is lacking a sausage making aisle. dag nabbit and I don't have the energy to drive thirty miles and fight the crowd at Cabellas this weekend. Any ideas where I can get the sodium nitrate if I don't have a local source? I'm dying for some good corned beef that does not cost more than my kids shoes. (Otherwise, I would just fight the crowds at Zingerman's).
