Jackpot today!
A delicious delivery of some favorite Marie Sharp hot sauces. The Garlic Pepper and Green Habanero are two recent favorites. They are very flavorful, not particularly hot, and are enjoyable with a wide variety of foods. The Smoked Habanero has been a long-time favorite.
I updated a favorite pot. I made a mistake and recently purchased this pot (All-Clad D5 1.5 quart) in a shiny finish which annoyed me every time I looked at it. My maintenance guy liked it, we made a deal, he got the shiny pot, and today the pot with a brushed finish arrived. Frankly, I was surprised at how much the shiny variant annoyed me.
A new garlic press was also delivered. It supplements a press I already have but which has a much smaller hopper. While it's a well-made and capable press, its limited size capacity has been bothering me for years, and recently while watching a cooking show, I discovered this press sold by Ikea. The press is $18.00 on Amazon and $6.50 at Ikea. For the money, it was a no-brainer. I used it this evening and love the extra capacity.
I subscribe to Peet's "Small Batch Series" and every month I get a pound of coffee that Peet's sells in limited quantities. I never know what will be arriving so there's an opportunity to explore a wide variety of coffee that I'd probably overlook. The surprise for this month arrived today.
I don't think I've ever had so many deliveries in a single day.
