"green chile"

barbie gee — Thu, 23 May 2013 13:29:27 GMT

I was looking for recipes for mexican "green rice", and one of the recipes
calls for "green chiles". "Frozen or fresh", not canned.

Where I'm at, when I think chiles, I think peppers. When I think green
chiles, I'm thinking green peppers, but then which ones? Poblano? Bell?
Jalapeno?

What the heck am I supposed to be using when a recipe says, "green
chiles"?

I jes ordered my Bug-A-Salt gun:

http://bugasalt.com/

I douched 2 wasps yesterday with Raid Wasp and Hornet Killer ...inside
my house! I fear wasps even more than spiders, probably cuz I was
almost stung to death by a nest of 'em when I was 4 yrs old. Anyway,
CO is positively lousy with the damn things and I'm tired of hosing
down my interior windows with poisinous insecticides. Soooo... I got
me a Bug-A-Salt gun.

I've been wanting one of these things for 2 yrs, but they were one of
those crowd funded projects that hadda be finalized and brought to
mkt, etc. They look pretty solid, now, so I ordered one. It was
created to kill flies, but youtube vids claim they will down a wasp.
Count me in! If regular table salt won't do the trick, I'll load it
with kosher salt. Must be like buckshot to a fly or wasp. OBfood:
Who knows, I may even use it on food. Take aim at a bowl of beans and
blast away. I can't wait. Literally. I think I'll make up a mess o'
ham n' butter beans, today. ;)

$$$$ saving tip:

Use the coupon code. I did and it saved me the $10 shipping fee.
Looks like the codes on fleecebook work, currently. That's where I
googled mine. Today's code: ARMPOPS (how appropriate)

Die, fly!! Burn in Hell, you stripey assed bastid! LOL....

That is the one. They're calling it 12" but that's the top diameter. The
flat cooking surface is only 11".

Hi Jeffrey.

Got a golucometer? Check you FBG (fasting blood glucose) as soon as you get
up, before you let any food pass your lips. Target is between 80 and 100
mg/dL.

Check after eating. One hour after you started eating tells you the effect
of various food; two hour target is below 120.

You might also visit alt.support.diabetes.

Where are you? Age? Weight? Diet? Exercise? Etc.
Nice to meet you. Sorry it's here.

Very possible. The relatively small chain here in western NC owns it
own dairy. That is about 120 miles from here.

That's encouraging! There is still the by-catch problem but perhaps I
can occasionally have monkfish.

But they still believe that you'll wait until they have time to
pull out their guns before you blow their heads off.

In their fantasy land, that's how things work.

That's why it's always better to stand your ground, shoot them
first and ask questions later.

======================================

Unless of course they sneak up and blow your silly brains out before you
have the chance. I guess shooting first is the best defense in your foolish
utopia.

Hope you don't live in MY neighborhood.

Spanish Chorizo "Salami"

I'd start with sandwiches to taste the thing and then, as others suggested,
I'd try it on pizza. Salami is not much used in cooking, the cold cuts I
usually cook with are just pancetta and cured lard.
I see they

I see they also have coppa, one of my beloved culd cuts, to the point I buy
coppa from Parma, from Piacenza and from Macerata where it is called
"lonza":

Perfect for a sandwich

OT: fat diabetic cat

Susan — Wed, 22 May 2013 13:14:17 GMT

x-no-archive: yes

Tom is on the way home with Freddy.

No change in the past three months despite his weight loss and greater
activity, so no reduction in insulin.

Vet says "best controlled diabetic cat she's ever seen."

His numbers were between 100 (after breakfast and insulin) and 120
today, always rises in the couple of hours before it's time for his next
shot.

This bovine/zinc insulin is probably better for humans, the way it is
for pets. The others are too roller coastery, she says, and I've heard
it about people, too.

Cava Pere Ventura

JaneRathore — Wed, 22 May 2013 12:36:51 GMT

It is fairly easy to google...
Seems to be a middle of the road product, some like it, others are less
impressed.
The most favorable critic was this one:

I shamefully underestimated this lovely and inexpensive Spanish sparkling
wine. Bright and lively, with hints of crisp pear and apple, it has easily
taken over the coveted role as my everyday sparkler. It went extremely well
with Cana de Cabra cheese and is also perfect for a Saturday morning mimosa.

I doubt that if they had a suspicious past they'd willingly be on TV.
It's all just more PR.
