[Comment ID #52880 Quote]
Do they have to room ith the gnome guy – he’s kind of creepy!
[Comment ID #52876 Quote]Huv, you may be broke, but you have sauce. Make sure you bring some of that stuff to trade with us. I’m dying to try it!
[Comment ID #52881 Quote]
Why are you jealous Huv?
[Comment ID #52883 Quote]
Lee how is my order coming along
Anyone landing at DFW around 1 or 2 pm on Friday? Looking for someone for my wife to split a shuttle with to the show.
MSK is on the way
Lest Hurricane Ernesto
In Mississippi wants to play
Without a Blog Shirt I’ll have drove
Miles and mile a peppered highway
Towards the Amerisuites for a little doze
On a Wing and Prayer
And a Collecter’s Badge
In eleven days I’ll see you there
[Comment ID #52886 Quote]
Lee, above Arizona Jack said he arrives at 2:30, not sure if he meant into DFW?
[Comment ID #52885 Quote]Bret, all I can say is you’re going be happy you waited. We’ve got this unreal artist performing the finishing touches on labels like you’ve never seen in the hot sauce industry. He’s done all the art for Harley Davidson of Canada and several other high profile customers. The labels themselves are going to be printed on special stock which I’ve NEVER seen used. In addition to that, Danny Cash is just about to announce our first 2 collectible sauces ever, to be sold early at ZestFest to collectors and they are both awesome. We’ll be able to get an order out the door for you right after returning from the show. I can’t wait for this show by the way. Never has there been so much buildup and collector presence and it’s gonna be one hell of a party! Woooooeeeeee! Time for whiskey shots!
[Comment ID #52889 Quote]
Lee, special bottles? limited numbers? tell us more…
[Comment ID #52890 Quote]Sorry buddy, sworn to secrecy for now. But I will send a release w/pics to Nick a few days before the show to post on the blog.
[Comment ID #52891 Quote]
That’s cool, I’ll be there sometime Thursday night, so will look forward to seeing them in person Friday. I’m sure they’ll be awesome.
[Comment ID #52892 Quote]Show, we’ll see you Thursday night at the Amersuites lounge or Booger Red’s!
[Comment ID #52893 Quote]
Sounds like a plan to me! Looking forward to checking out your sauces too.
[Comment ID #52884 Quote]
Well….. a little ๐ณ
[Comment ID #52889 Quote]
You or Danny call me sometime this week ok. You and the crew be easy on all them big bad texans and I’ll be nice to all the San Fran People LOL. If you did not here I will be in San Fran why you all are having fun at ZF
[Comment ID #52895 Quote]
LOL…how’s everything going Huv?
[Comment ID #52889 Quote]
All these collectibles….. very tempting !
We’re arriving at DFW around 2:30 (can’t remember the exact time, but I know its around there). We’ll be taking a shuttle as well to out “Tops Secret Location” (found on expedia and CIA’s websites only). If Jack, Lee, and we are arriving around the same time, perhaps we can split the shuttle three ways? A sort of “menage e fare”? And Bret, there was no ass kicking while you were gone. I wouldn’t deprive you of such things.
[Comment ID #52896 Quote]
Bret, San Fran? or ZF? sounds like you’re making the wrong choice! LOL hope you have a good time, I know Leroy said he was going to ZF!
[Comment ID #52898 Quote]
Too bad you’re borke Huv!! LOL You need to sell alot of FKS quickly…
[Comment ID #52896 Quote]Will do. Texas is a great place to party. Sucks you won’t be there but have fun in San Fran -lot’s of cool stuff to do there!
[Comment ID #52901 Quote]
True…. trying to get the web done right now. It’s totally broke now ๐
[Comment ID #52894 Quote]
Bigshow I might need you to work for me at the show. If everyone is doing Zf only bottle. I will need someone to buy for JJs. How much $ do you think you will need LOL
[Comment ID #52904 Quote]He’ll need a lot, Bret. Show, stop at our booth first, okay?
[Comment ID #52904 Quote]
Depends on how much you want me to buy? LOL As it is I’m gonna need a flatbed cart just for me, gonna have to get a pallet jack for you! LOL
[Comment ID #52903 Quote]
Time to call in the professionals yet? LOL
[Comment ID #52905 Quote]
You’re definately on my early list. Plus I’ll work on meeting up Thursday night.
[Comment ID #52907 Quote]
Nah – just need 36 hours in a day ๐
[Comment ID #52908 Quote]Sounds like a plan.
G’night all. 11 days and counting….
[Comment ID #52910 Quote]
Can you make that count down go any quicker!! LOL
Have a good one!
[Comment ID #52909 Quote]
We could all use that! The 12 extra hours need to be sunlight too!
Lets corner the market Buy all of Blair’s and CaJohn’s and DC and anybody else that’s got a ZF only bottle. Let’s see Blairs has 59 of them you will need about $13.000 and CaJohn’s has 100 of them so about $25.000 to buy them all you will need to offer them 2 times there asking price. So about $45.000 to buy all ZF bottles. Can you handle it. LOL
[Comment ID #52913 Quote]I like the way you think, Mortimer.
Ok back to the real world. Back to work. Everybody If I need sauce I will call you this week so I can get it rolling before you take off. Nite
[Comment ID #52913 Quote]
I sure can!! Too bad they won’t let us do it! Blair is talking only one per person and CaJohn 1 or 2 per person. And Lee is being too tight lipped about DC collectables (at least for now). If you can talk them into it, I’m your man!! LOL
[Comment ID #52915 Quote]
Bret, have a good one. TTYL
[Comment ID #52901 Quote]
Sell alot of FKS?! That just sounds wrong…
[Comment ID #52913 Quote]
$15,900 for Blair’s and CaJohn’s stuff…have no idea what the DC boys are selling theirs for, or how many they have, but I’d say $16.5K oughta cover it.
[Comment ID #52916 Quote]
It would be fun. I would never do that to the folks on here, they are the best. But what would Blair or CaJohn do, say I offer $50.000 for all of there ZF bottles ?. Back to folks on here and how nice they are Letting Huv go and stay for free and the THT ladys letting Leroy stay with them. God Bless them all and tiny tim also.
[Comment ID #52918 Quote]
Not even gonna ask where your mind is Tracy? LOL
btw…got the invoice and paid, thanx again.
[Comment ID #52919 Quote]
If cajohn’s selling his for 100.00 and he has 100 I would have to double the pricePlus alittle extra for #1 and #100 same with Blair.
[Comment ID #52921 Quote]
It’s packed up and ready to go out on Monday..Tossed in a little something xtra for the wait..THX
[Comment ID #52920 Quote]
Blair said in New Mexico, someone walked up with $6k to buy all the N-59s but he said no. I’m sure CaJohn would say no too. And the DC guys also.
Yeah, would want to be fair to the bloggers too.
Sounds like Leroy got the best deal though! ๐
[Comment ID #52923 Quote]
Thanx Tracy, nothing extra necessary. Looking forward to it.
The Emans will be attending. Staying at Amerisuits.
I have my shirt and I am ready to go!…..but I am not going to be able to make it, damn!!! somebody pick up some collectables for me!

[Comment ID #52924 Quote]
I’ll sell Bret all my sauce any time he wants ๐ I’ll even drip wax on them…. here the heck are those crayons ๐
I agree, unless it was a boat load of $$$ I don’t think they would do that either.
[Comment ID #52849 Quote]
Thanks for the consolation Tracy! I agree, they should have a placard for us missing people so we can be included after!
[Comment ID #52918 Quote]
Filling in the blanks again Dick Tracy? ๐

[Comment ID #52924 Quote]
I freak the guys working for Blair at that show in N|M. I offer them 10.000 for what they had left. Blair was not there yet he was still on his way. I love messing people.
[Comment ID #52932 Quote]

YES we arrive at Dallas Ft Worth around 2:30 from Phoenix Sky Harbor, will be glad to split transpo!!! Dont forget, we have 100 ZF bottles of JimC’s Red Savina, #1 going to Jims charity.

If they will even allow it on the plane?

Leroy, Bubba says she’s losing the TV station again, git your butt up on the roof and fix it! And put a matress on the ground under you this time, you only got one tooth left!
Night Bret!
[Comment ID #52947 Quote]
That’s what I was thinking!
I’m outta here – good night all
[Comment ID #52950 Quote]
Night Huvason.
DK …. got your joke for today!
Living Wills
While I was watching the NASCAR Race a few weeks ago, my wife and I got into a conversation about life and death, and the need for living wills.
During the course of the conversation I told her that I never wanted to
exist in a vegetative state, dependent on some machine and taking fluids
from a bottle.
She got up, unplugged the TV and threw out all my beer.
Man, sometimes it’s tough being married to a smartass.
[Comment ID #52950 Quote]
Later Huv!! While you’re in Hillsborough, you can dream about ZF!
[Comment ID #52953 Quote]
Hahahaha! ๐
That last line is probably why I am still single! Can’t find anyone willing to hook up with a ……, well, you get the picture!
I can’t wait ’til the forums are back up, got some jokes sitting here just itching to be told. ๐
What the heck, her’s a short one for ya.
[Comment ID #52955 Quote]
lol..that was good.
i’m sure Nick will have them back up soon.
I probably should have put that in the Off Topic thread, oops! Sorry Nick, I’m not going to ZF by the way.
It’s going to be tough to post in the next week or so if everyone stays in the ZF thread, just gonna lurk and read and get depressed! Nah, I still got jerky to make! ๐
OK, I’m outta here, goodnight!
[Comment ID #52948 Quote]
Sorry man, been unpacking and getting a few things in order, but I’ve been chew’n on your jerky all day. I LOVE IT! its got a real good flavor to it, can definitely taste the mamba, but its not enough to cause any real burn. Great snack’n stuff man. Love the labels too! The cat was so cute it made it diffficult to open ๐ Nice job Bro, and thank you very much. The Mrs. isn’t a big jerky fan, and her tolerance for spicy/hot stuff is nowhere near mine, but she said it was good. Coming from her, that’s a big compliment. Pat yourself on the back my friend.
[Comment ID #52958 Quote]
See ya DK..have a good one
[Comment ID #52945 Quote]
Photoshop is a great program and all, but I don’t think its THAT great! Kidding man. Say, did you get that disc I sent you?
I will ship the hot sauce to my hotel in advance. Also, probably not going to # the bottles, just the #1 for JimC, that will avoid problems I hope. I need some opinions on this, THANKS !!!!
[Comment ID #52961 Quote]
LOL…thanx man… Yeah I was away for the weekend, but it was here waiting for me when i got back. Will play around with it tomorrow. thanx
[Comment ID #52959 Quote]
Thanks Ryan! Remember, you got a modified recipe. I went easy on the Mamba, but yea, it was in there. Glad you guys enjoyed it.
Ok, good night for real this time.
[Comment ID #52962 Quote]
Number all the rest of them #2! ๐ ๐
[Comment ID #52962 Quote]
AJ, really you’re call totally. Personally I like them numbered and limited. I think it makes it more the collectible. Otherwise its just a signed bottle. You could sign 1, 100 or 1,000,000. And for collectors like me, that like a certain number, increases the hunt and challenge. And if you know there are only 100 compared to 1000 or what not, just increases the collectabilty. Just my 2 cents for what they’re worth.
[Comment ID #52966 Quote]
I’d say that’s worth about threeeee fiddy
Thanks bigshow, send me an email. I just want everybody to have an equal chance.
[Comment ID #52934 Quote]
Feel free to mess with me that way ๐

DC is leaving Denver around 3 am Thursday morning and should be at the show hall around 3 pm. Unless the Texas Rangers feel like harrasing us again this year for going 7 mph over the speed limit….
[Comment ID #53032 Quote]Jodie, my wife is excited to meet the Tamales because as she puts it, “Are there going to be any chicks there or just dudes like usual?” I told her about you guys. Should be fun.

Sorry, look for the 300+ bald guys, and the 3 Hot Tamales!!!!!!
Sorry Jody!
[Comment ID #53043 Quote]
Sometime Thursday, depends how fast those Texas Rangers are, if they can hang with me or not!
FYI – any bloggers showing up on Thursday and looking to get a sneak peak of the show? You’re more than welcome to help us setup our booth! Just come round back to the loading zone. lol
[Comment ID #53049 Quote]
hmmmmm……you’re like my 3rd offer to help setup. How much do you pay? Maybe I can make enough money to help support my ZF Bottle Habit!! LOL
[Comment ID #53050 Quote]LOL. Show, we only pay people in beer and hot sauce. I have no idea how Danny and John pay their mortgages…
[Comment ID #53052 Quote]
Well hot sauce works!! Not sure how i pay my mortgage sometimes either, must be Leroy’s math!
I should be there on Thursday, just don’t know when. Hope to leave out of the firehouse on Wednesday sometime. Arrival Thursday depends on how traffic flows.
I have been out all weekend with my birthday having been Saturday so mark me down for ZF at the Amerisuites! I didn’t order a shirt cause it totally escaped me to think about it till just recently! Oh Lee I would offer to help set up but I am already indentured to Mild to Wild!
Anyone getting into DFW on Thursday morning? I am trying to see the best way to get to Amerisuites.
[Comment ID #53057 Quote]
Happy Birthday Aaron. see u at ZF

HAH – I said I would buy you a couple of beers. If I was to offer you free beer all weekend I have this sneaking suspicion that you would show up just to get the beer ๐
[Comment ID #53068 Quote]
Absolutely, it would be my pleasure. Although…if it’s anything like the ZF I’ve known in the past, we’ll all be hookin’ up somewhere for sure!

You gonna be in Texas at all yourself?
Sounds like another sweet bottle for ZF! I can’t wait!
[Comment ID #53083 Quote]Nice! I hope we sell out of the DC collectibles so I can buy one of these!
Is anyone else in fear of spending every dime they have! I’m gonna go broke! But will have fun doing it! ๐
[Comment ID #53092 Quote]
Definately!
On last tally, it’s at least $500 for collectible bottles alone (if you get two T-99’s)
Lee…I sent you an email
[Comment ID #53071 Quote]
LOL – very true. Sad, but true ๐
I’m going to be there! I write for another blog though….sorry.
Still. I hope to party with you guys and turn you on to some of my hot sauce….i’m bringing samples!
[Comment ID #53098 Quote]
And the party grows!!!!!!
Maybe we should touch base with one of those Rent-All places. With as much sauce as we’ll be swimming in we’re going to need a VERY BIG pool! ๐
Better yet, maybe the Amerisuites will empty their’s and we’ll refill it for ’em! ๐
[Comment ID #53098 Quote]
He said the “s” word. Yum, looking forward to trying your stuff.
The Envy is killing me, I am trying to collect all the back sauces and reserves, Have a charity obligation that I would not think of missing during ZF and got beat out by the Big Show on a 6 am reserve on Ebay this week(Anyone feel sorry for me). Next year I’m making all the events and coming on like a vengence. Does anyone know what the next large event is? I was hook on Hot sauce collecting and eating different sauces about 3 months ago and since then have never looked back. I love the HSB site and all the knowledge and passion everyone shares. Learn my name because you will see it again and again.
Have Fun at ZF, wish I could be there and meet all of you. Next time
Welcome aboard Blane! Next big strictly hot sauce event is March- the Fiery Foods Show though there will be several higher end Fancy Food Shows and smaller Christmas Gift Shows… unless you want to go to Australia for the Hot Sauce & Fiery Foods Festival near Melbourne ๐
Thanks Jim, and congradulations on your great feat, have you recovered yet?
Jim,
In the future if you need or would like any products the I make for your stepupforcharity.org Just ask I donate items that I produce in my wood making / carving shop for the local Fire department and habitat for humanity charities. I do a lot of one of a kind carvings and signs. Pieces take up to 1 month to produce, its a side hobby, can’t make sauce but I did grow some peppers this year. LOL.
Best wishes
BLANE

[Comment ID #53159 Quote]
good point, well taken. hmmmm even hotter huh? heat is always good. have you tried other sauces? or just mamba? just curious?
[Comment ID #53155 Quote]

Hey CaJohn, how’s it going?
Hi, CaJohn
New member to the site it would make my day if you said Hi. The USDA has been busting my chops all night.
Well by the spelling in that last post I must have talked too long to Bret this afternoon! Otherwise, pretty good, as long as we can get everything ready to ship in the next couple of days. Pre-Show time is not always fun time. How about you?
the big show.
did you get my email
Wazzup Brother?
[Comment ID #53221 Quote]
Hey BLANE! Welcome to the blog! I saw your earlier posts talking to the “StairMaster”, hope you do hang around for a long while. What’s the Feds got goin’ with you? They are a nosey bunch aren’t they, they’re kinda like bees, don’t swat at them and they’ll not sting you…
MSK in the House! Great news, C-Hip IS going to be in Houston!
Welcome Blane! It’s good to have new faces join in!
I’m a Superintendent, at ConAgra foods, he saw a drip over one of my lines now I have 11,000 pounds of meatballs on Test and hold, not a good night.
[Comment ID #53226 Quote]
I’ll be damn! You up for a call?
Thanks
MSK
[Comment ID #53228 Quote]
Yes, that does not make for a good night, or day for that matter. USDA pretty much moves in, we just get visits from the FDA at our place. They at least come around every so often, but they do stay for a while when they drop in.
[Comment ID #53231 Quote]
We have one on site, we have a relief inspector this week, need to figure him out.
Sure MSK (by the way Blane, MSK stands for Mississippi Sauce King so when he arrives make sure you “Bow to the King!”) He’s quite the recognizable dude with his autographed head, you gonna be sportin’ that in Ft Worth MSK?
lol
Are there many chilliheads from Nebraska on the Blog?
[Comment ID #53233 Quote]
Whats autographed on his head or should I ask.
[Comment ID #53235 Quote]
None that I now of… what happened to thebigshow? Did he drop out?
Phones ringing, must be MSK…
[Comment ID #53236 Quote]
You just never know, got us thrown out of a bar in Albuquerque…
CaJohn your new flask looks awesome will it be for sale on your site. I have your Lava dome, several auto reserves and I just got a A-Z pickles 1of 6 on a O my stars. What does the AZ pickles stand for.
[Comment ID #53222 Quote]
Things are good. Yeah you must be really busy getting ready, not only your own stuff, but Bret’s too. Just getting ready for the trip myself, not coming soon enough! lol
Hopefully I will be down there early enough Thursday to sneak in and get a preview.
[Comment ID #53223 Quote]
Yeah, just sesnt you a reply.
[Comment ID #53228 Quote]
Huv and I will test those meatballs. lol
[Comment ID #53237 Quote]
I’m here, was just writing an e-mail that took some time. Remember, I’m Polish, only one thing at a time.
[Comment ID #53238 Quote]
the autograph got you thrown out? or MSK got you thrown out?
We have messed around with some small batches of putting hot sauce in with the Meatball blend. Pretty good if I do say so. Every Friday we bring in different hot sauces and peppers and a couple of willing subjects, the outcome isn’t always as planned but enjoyable to most.
[Comment ID #53245 Quote]
sounds tasty. you could also try dry rubs in the mix.
If anyone wants I can do a blend test with a specific Hot sauce of your choice and send it to you? It will be sent in a cooler with dry ice. I’m always send tests to R&D at Corperate. Just let me know. We do a really good Italian, its the Quizno’s meatball. Do you have them in your parts?
[Comment ID #53244 Quote]
The picture taking got us thrown out, be back in a bit, have an audience with the King.
CaJohn, MSK, Hello. I just sealed and packed your jerky. Hope you like it hot! Should have it and a few more of them in the USPS tommorrow.
Thanks CaJohn, got that sauce right on time!
I havent bought any dry rubs yet what’s everyone’s favorite.
[Comment ID #53247 Quote]
Wow sounds good BLANE, Yes we have Quizno’s here in Orlando, I have a bottle of their Batch 81 Three Pepper Chili Sauce on a shelf. It’s actually pretty tasty too.
[Comment ID #53247 Quote]
Anytime, i’ll try any of them. Mamba is good in jerky, should be good in a meatball or talon(ask Huv about his Talon pizza), blair’s nitro i’ve had in a meat sauce that was real good. Original death, good on everything.
What’s up DK! How life at the Gator Farm ๐
[Comment ID #53248 Quote]
I can see how that would happen!
[Comment ID #53251 Quote]
Hey Vic, how goes it?
mmmmm Quizno’s, we just finally got one in my town some months back.
Good evening there bigshow, how’s it going…..
[Comment ID #53255 Quote]
Mmm Mmm Toasty!
[Comment ID #53256 Quote]
going well…just getting ready for an awesome week in texas…
[Comment ID #53253 Quote]
Hello Vic, packaging up jerky. Got yours in there as we speak, ready to go.
[Comment ID #53257 Quote]
Had my first Quizno’s in Phoenix, then again in Cocoa beach, couldn’t wait for them to come around here. Always warm and tasty. And now everyone’s copying them.
[Comment ID #53258 Quote]
I here you, counting the days and counting the pennys until then. With all the cool collector bottles it seems are going to be there; Wendy is hiding her jewelry so I don’t pawn it all, she locked up the titles to the cars, and she won’t let me sell the cat- she ruins everything. ๐ฟ
OK, I’m going to order some Talon from CaJohns and make a batch next week when the shipment arrives, I’ll send it out after ZF. I’ll send it to the first 5 that respond on this site and to CaJohn if he wants, it will be 10lb samples in preasure sealed bags, on dried ice. I would send more but I need to draw a limit on the first batch.
[Comment ID #53259 Quote]
You are the man! And it is greatly appreciated as well! ๐

I’m sure you’ll find what you need…where there’s a will, there’s a way. And I know you got the will man!
[Comment ID #53272 Quote]
Well there’s my will and Wendy’s way! But as long as she doesn’t say the “B” word (remeber your Hot Sauce BUDGET) I think it’s going to be one heck of a time! And the collection will be greatly improved!!!
[Comment ID #53269 Quote]
Huv, you still on? Don’t miss out man.
Who makes talon
I have The big show
DK
Vic
I would like to use a CaJohns product any suggestions
[Comment ID #53273 Quote]
I guess it’s always their way! Not much room to improve on that collection. I can’t even imagine that many bottles! That Caveat Emptor is gonna be one hell of an addition to everyones collection.

You may want to add huvason to that list, he has a kick a$$ sauce that would be great in some meatballs. Fat Kid Sauces. I can shoot him you info.
That said, check your mail.

[Comment ID #53278 Quote]
Thanks dude, My personal goal is to be at 1300 bottles by ZF, We are @ 1288 right know. Some in transit and I have my eye on a couple here local. We’ll see what happens. ๐
I thought he made it , but I didn’t want to put my foot in my mouth, both of them wouldnt fit. I’ll put Huv on the list, Shoot me his address. We can do his sauce next time. maybe one each month, we make about 125 SKU’s
[Comment ID #53282 Quote]
Quite well actually! Works great in jerky!
[Comment ID #53281 Quote]
Also his Fatalli Fire isn’t on there that I saw, but there’s a lot that I’m sure isn’t there. I just ordered the Fatalii Fire and Mamba from him last week to do the jerky with.
Does he sell Talon on his site or did I miss it?
[Comment ID #53284 Quote]
Yeah I don’t see it on his site either. we’ll have to ask him when he gets back on. hopefully it will be available on my site after ZF. I know it’s on sweatnspice now.

It is a challenge to keep finding room, I have to update the pics because we recently bought two bookcases and filled them to the brim, packed full already. But it did give a me chance to move all our CaJohn’s and Blair’s all together- each of them has a top shelf space!
I just sent huvason your info BLANE, he should get in touch with you.

Why your having fun with men with cowboy hats. I will be in San Fran with men in tights. LOL
Okay, CaJohn didn’t have the Talon on his site, so I got black mamba instead, with a few others. so hopefully in 2 -3 weeks you will get the meatball test.
Have fun at ZF

Yeah, she’s lazy like that. Her excuse was “they’re supposed to open it and try it”. We plan to have complete versions at ZF. I know you won’t be there, but we’ll see about setting one aside for you and I’ll have her sign it. I’ll be sure to pack some pens and a wrist thingy in case she has to sign a bunch and develops carpal tunnel.

Dare I say his next label for Free? LOL you could just make it a simple black/white label that says “Fat Kid Sauces” then charge him for all the upgrades to make it a real label. LOL
[Comment ID #53439 Quote]
MY GOD!! you’re a genius ๐ I should start charging by the pixel ๐
[Comment ID #53443 Quote]
LOL..there ya go, but not till after you finish mine! ๐
[Comment ID #53443 Quote]
a standard 3×5 label at 300 dpi is 1,35,000 pixels…so for 50 cents a pixel, you can get yourself a decent label for $675,000.00 ๐
[Comment ID #53445 Quote]
forgot a zero,….that’s supposed to be 1,350,000
[Comment ID #53445 Quote]
Make it real enticing, $ .02 a pixel, that would be $ 27,000. I think that’s fair, just don’t forget my commission ๐

Yeah, that’s fine. Do youy take checks? You just can’t cash it until I sell my billion dollar bottle of FKS on ebay ๐

Hello everyone
[Comment ID #53452 Quote]
What’s up Blane? Are you watching the 05 Holiday on e-bay?
The final list:
The big show
MSK
DK
VIC
HUV
DEFCON
I know thats 6 but Jim asked to pass his spot on to someone else… The TAlon was going to be too hot for him.
It should arrive after ZF I plan on getting the sauces this week and producing it the following week. It will be betwwen a 5-10 pound bag what ever will fit in the shipping coolers that I have. 2 bags 1 talon and one of Jim’s sauces not decided yet.
Hope you like them.. You are all too trusting. Just kidding. when it comes to blending I’m pretty good, if I do say so myself.
05 holiday just went out of my league for know!!! WOW what did they origanally sell for? I have a lot of smaller fish to grab before that big daddy. lol
[Comment ID #53454 Quote]
that’s awsome Blane! appreciate the offer, and looking forward to sampling it for you. want to give everyone a chance to be your guinea pigs. but whenever there’s an opening, you can count onthe Huv and myself. I have a friend that has been playing around with something, will have to get you a sample, get your opinion on it.
[Comment ID #53456 Quote]
Sounds good, we do a wide range of products, from pre-cooked Bacon to Meatloaf.. We produce about 65 million finished pounds a year, you probally eat something our facility makes weekly. So you have already tried my stuff and didn’t even know it. lol
I can’t wait to try some of DK’s jerky
[Comment ID #53455 Quote]
i hear ya. $100 new back in December. Now that’s a return on your investment.
[Comment ID #53239 Quote]
Quite a belated answer, Arizona Pickles. Thanks for the order today. I’ve got a lot of catchin up to do on this thread. Chip, who owned AZ Pickles is now here in Columbus, Karen, who you spoke to today is his wife. He had a store in Green Valley that he closed when he moved, the Oh My Stars were a little thing I did especially for him.
[Comment ID #53460 Quote]
Big Daddy, jsut sent you an e-mail if you feel like answering.
[Comment ID #53459 Quote]
Wow, it’s probably a good time to unload my #42. I didn’t know they were doing that well. Man that would be hard for me to do though, even at that kind of a return. I still have not gotten a B99 to go with my Holiday. If it’s gonna be that kinda jack, it will probably never happen. Makes the thought of putting up the Holiday that much more tempting. Can anyone say NM plane ticket in March? ๐
Hello everyone!
[Comment ID #53458 Quote]
Now who’s the trusting one? ๐ You want it hot? Or you want some of the mild stuff I’m making for Bret. The hot has Cajohn’s Black Mamba and Fatalii Fire in it. The mild, no Mamba. Well, maybe a touch! ๐
[Comment ID #53462 Quote]
Hey DK what’s up? the B-99 is not as bad as the 05 holiday, at least not yet. keep me in mind if you decide to sell, i may have a buyer for you.
Hi everyone!

Karen is still laughing at me isn’t she, I think I called 3 times to add on to my order, can’t wait for the shipment.
[Comment ID #53464 Quote]
ok MSK, you can be Lil Daddy!!! LOL how’s it going ?
I’m out to play cards later all.
[Comment ID #53463 Quote]
Hey bigshow! I will keep that in mind for sure. Never even thought of selling, until I saw that auction, funny what will change a guys mind ain’t it! Don’t know though, the Halloween and Holiday were my first big purchases from Blair, big to me at the time that is. I don’t have a huge collection, and no extras, so it’s kinda hard to let anything go. Each bottle has more value than jusyt the $$$. A little story behind every one of them. I guess the only story behind those two was that they were the first big purchases, so hmmmm.
Someone once told me I was indecisive. I told him I would get back to him on that! ๐
Welcoma Blane to the blog, I missed you last night. Good luck Bigshow, hope you do better than I dad last night.
It’s going good bigshow! Gearing up to fly to Gettysburg, PA on Thursday for one of my military reunions. This one only happens every other year and I can hardly wait to see my “Band of Brothers” again.
[Comment ID #53466 Quote]
There is Bubba hot, and Leroy Mild. When it’s Bubba hot, it’s F’n hot!
Actually, I’m gonna make some more of both, I’ll send ya some of each. You tell me which you liked best. The mild is just relevant to how hot the hot actually is since there’s only two choices. So the only way I know to tell ya, is that the hot is really f’n hot, and the mild is less than that.
I am actually still experimenting with different heat levels, so no concrete recipe for the mild yet, but the hot is spot on now.
That help any? ๐
[Comment ID #53472 Quote]
Mild is Leroy heat level when you only have one tooth you have to let the jerky lay in your mouth cause you can’t chew so it just lays there. So if it was real real hot then it would hurt Leroy so thats why there is mild. Leroy real good about putting stuff in his mouth one side jerky and the other side some red man swallows one and spits the other,
[Comment ID #53474 Quote]
Now that’s about as clear of an explanation as it gets! Hahaha! ๐
Evening Bret!
[Comment ID #53470 Quote]
Thanks AJ, last night was pretty interesting last night. It was a great time and felt very welcomed.
[Comment ID #53476 Quote]
What’s up Brother Dk
I heard that Leroy learned how to spell his own name today! That fall off of the roof must have done more than knock out his other tooth! Tell him to keep practisin’, it may come in handy one of these days! Must be kinda hard holding that pen, missing that finger and all!

Bret just told me to use mine. He’ll pick it up ๐
[Comment ID #53641 Quote]
At least half of that is correct. I’m actually gonna try the FKS in it. Fat Kids on a Short Bus Jerky. Kinda has a nice ring to it, ya think? ๐ I may even throw in a bottle of Window Drool Dipping Sauce!
[Comment ID #53629 Quote]
Huv, I thought that’s what all the $ coming in from FK was for ๐
[Comment ID #53635 Quote]
Bret, you gonna try DK’s new batch, using Leroy’s missing fingers for the meat.
[Comment ID #53647 Quote]The secret’s in the meat. Just watch out for those hard-shelled peppercorns (TCM#3).
[Comment ID #53648 Quote]
so all those wings i ate, it was the meat that was good, not the sauce? ๐

huv would be proud

damn…chris….it one of those already…i held out for about 10 minutes!
looked to good, of course mine was just signed not numbered. lol
[Comment ID #53653 Quote]
it?????? “OPEN” one of those……what was i thining?
[Comment ID #53652 Quote]
. ๐
Is the vacuum still holding? I went to send out some today and one pack had leaked. Gotta reseal it tonight. I used a bulk roll this time. It doesn’t seem to be as heavy duty as the bags in the first few I sent. I didn’t notice it until all of the others were sent, otherwise I would have resealed all of them. If anyone receives one without a vacuum seal this time around, let me know. It will not hurt anything, just open it as soon as possible and put the jerky in a suitable container.
[Comment ID #53640 Quote]
Work is ok do you still have it.
[Comment ID #53656 Quote]
Bret, how’s it going, sent you an e-mail.

bigshow, I numbered the first three I sent out just to see if Huvason would open it or not after remembering the Habby incident. Numbered the three beefs as 1-2-3/3 and Huv’s turkey was a #1/1. ๐
[Comment ID #53656 Quote]
Yep, Thanks!
[Comment ID #53659 Quote]
lol..got it…and we all know, Huv, can’t help but open food and especially not FREE food! Yes Huv, FREE FOOD….wake up! LOL
[Comment ID #53653 Quote]
1 of 3 was open, I had some of that… ๐
2 of 3 and 3 of 3 are still sealed…
[Comment ID #53662 Quote]
oh, i see now. you should have opened #2 and kept #1 and #3 sealed. ๐
those are some final collectibles there.
[Comment ID #53663 Quote]
I really feel like a dumb polack today, can’t type at all… “final”?? s.b. “FINE” collectibles.
[Comment ID #53663 Quote]
Well, not really. I got 3 of 3 signed to me
1 of 3 and 2 of 3 went to others…
truth opened his ๐
[Comment ID #53663 Quote]
#2 will probably be encased in carbonite as a keepsake. No chance of it being open I don’t think. #3/3 was with #2 and #1 was all alone, so #1 got the hatchet. Right?
[Comment ID #53655 Quote]
Suitable Container = MOUTH
[Comment ID #53664 Quote]
dont worry bigshow, we know what you mean…
if junior was nice, he’s just fix it for ya ๐

That’s right… 1 of 1 shipped seperate from 2 and 3.
That was open…
I did get to try it though DK ๐

FREE FOOD – I’m here! (with my suitable container)
Howdy all how is everything going ?????

well i gotta run and work, back later..
Hello MrFreeze. I never asked you if you wanted any beef jerky did I? YOu want som? Still got a couple more people to send to, I’ll put ya on the list if ya want.
[Comment ID #53679 Quote]

See Huv, I knew there was FREE FOOD for you somewhere.
Sounds great Freeze…yeah, this has defiantely been the coolest Augist in a long time here too.
ok, guys…definately gotta go…back in 4hrs or so…..
[Comment ID #53683 Quote]
Oh yea, I would love some salsa. I’m making the next batch this weekend, I’ll get it out to ya ASAP.
Somebody send me MrFreeze’s email please! Or you can get mine at the link in my nick in the comment.
Hey Mr. Freeze!!! Long time no hear. I guess you’ve been spending lots of time in that garden of yours if I’m hearing all this talk of salsa.
Hey what’s up Kristi ?? Yeah been spending some time in the garden. Salsa will be sent out on Saturday…Weather has been crappy for the last three days, cloudy and rainy just like fall.
[Comment ID #53667 Quote]
You know it DK, #2 is staying just the way it is, the vacuum seal didn’t hold but thats ok, I think roadkill has a longer shelf life anyway.
[Comment ID #53688 Quote]
I hear ya, I”ve been cold since last Thurday! Rain everyday and gloomy. Although New Jersey does already have a reputation for being grey all the time. This is ridiculous though. If it were dry I could at least go hiking. sigh.
[Comment ID #53689 Quote]
You can send it back for a repair if ya like! The carbonite will probably work best anyway! ๐
[Comment ID #53677 Quote]
Thats what I heard, free FK sauce for all attending ZF, right huv?
Kristi, QC question for ya, was that one single bagged or doubled? I can’t remember.
[Comment ID #53690 Quote]
Where do you hike at ?? Last time I went I went up in Canada, it was awesome. Haven’t been out in awhile though, spending to much time on my mountain bike.
[Comment ID #53691 Quote]
No chance of risking the USPS loosing the good stuff on me! Besides I’ve already used a full can of Aqua Net to keep it preserved. Can’t find the carbonite. It was out back in the shed but theres been some strange going on’s out there lately.
[Comment ID #53693 Quote]
Looks like single, the seal at the end of the bag is fine, just not vacuum sealed anymore. I’ll let it slide, this time.
[Comment ID #53695 Quote]
MrFreeze, you need to get down this way for some MTB. CSRA of SC/GA has some sweet singletrack. I helped to build a lot of it. Used to a lot ofbiking and trail building a few years ago, but got fat and lazy. Or was that the other way around? ๐
Check out http://www.sorbacsra.org if ya get a chance. Great group of MTBR’s from my neck of the woods.

Is Leroy bothering you again? Bret, you need to have a talk with that boy again! Do you have a dog? If so, better go check on him! ๐
[Comment ID #53695 Quote]
Wow, Canada must be a great place for hiking. Around here I either go to Harriman New York or the Ramapo mountains in Jersey. Although, last time I was in Harriman I got lost with a group of eight for six hours in a severe snow storm. The only good that came out of that day was me being introduced to venison. It was the only choice and I was forced!! But I loved it! Haven’t eaten it since though, brings back too many bad memories of the near death experience! lol
[Comment ID #53699 Quote]
Sounds like fun, may have to make another road trip……….

Yeah it is very peaceful up in Canada, we hiked out 10 miles got to see a bald eagle and there was nothing out there but wilderness it was super !!!
[Comment ID #53698 Quote]
I’ll send a postage paid envelope for it. I can fix it. No need taking a chance on it molding or anything if you really want to keep it. I can fix it for ya. Heck, I offered Huv a repair also, even though he opened his on purpose. No refill for him though, just a reseal of the bag! ๐ ๐
OK. I gotta go home now. Enough work for today. I’l be back in here later. See ya Kristi, MrFreeze, everyone.
[Comment ID #53705 Quote]
No need to send out an envelope, I GUESS I’ll send it back for you to fix. Now I’m gonna have to take out insurance……. geez. lol

Take care DK, guess I will head out to the garden for awhile.
Yeah, I’ve gotta go too, need to get some stuff done for ZF. Talk to you all later.

I have been trying to keep up with current events as i don’t want to miss anything relating to Zest Fest. I just finished putting together my travel plans and tentative daily schedule, and i don’t want to miss anything. You guys have no idea how bad i need this getaway!!!!

It’s pretty good stuff. Burgoo is a hearty soup made from mutton, chicken, and a variety of vegetables. It’s big in the hills KY and Tenn.
[Comment ID #53732 Quote]
Got one for DK…….A redneck walks into a hardware store and asks for a chain saw that
will cut 6 trees in one hour. The salesman recommends the top of the
line model. The redneck is suitably impressed, and buys it.
The next day he brings it back and says, “This chain saw is defective.
It would only cut down 1 tree and it took all damn day!”
The salesman takes the chain saw, starts it up to see what’s wrong, and
the puzzled redneck says, “Heck, what’s that noise?”
[Comment ID #53732 Quote]
One more ok. This is going to be someone at ZF…….A drunk gets up from the bar and heads for the bathroom. A few minutes later, a loud, blood curdling scream is heard from the bathroom. A few minutes after that, another loud scream reverberates through the bar.
The bartender goes into the bathroom to investigate why the drunk is screaming. What’s all the screaming about in there? You’re scaring the customers.
I’m just sitting here on the toilet and every time I try to flush, something comes up and squeezes the hell out of my testicles.
With that, the bartender opens the door, looks in and says…”You idiot! You’re sitting on the mop bucket.

offered Huv to do a show with him, if he shows up. i don’t drink anymore, but i get the funny feeling that may change for the weekend from the sounds of it…
[Comment ID #53838 Quote]
i think Blane headed out for a few hours, but he’ll be happy to see that. have to let Bret know to send an extra bottle too…..
[Comment ID #53838 Quote]
Okay…. Sweat…….. OH my god…….. You rock, so I need to do it like we said?
CaJohn you rock
I’m doin’ pretty good. If it’s like most ZestFests, I think the people live on beer instead of air. Not to mention the tequila and bourbon and who knows what else…
It’s sort of an indurance run, not a drag race though.
[Comment ID #53835 Quote]
You know when to kick a man when he’s down lol I should have shut up about my number it probally will cost me in the end..lol
[Comment ID #53842 Quote]
sounds good, but 8 1/2 months off, maybe have destroyed my endurance.
[Comment ID #53840 Quote]
The pallets go tomorrow, I have 48 signed bottles, but lots more unsigned. I know how he makes his X though.
[Comment ID #53844 Quote]
Just drink slow, that’s what my wife does and she feels much better than I do in the morning.
[Comment ID #53838 Quote]
How’s everything with you CaJohn?
[Comment ID #53843 Quote]
lol…well, i’m sure AJ will hook you up, as long as you’re the first request. as for the 16 million, it’s available, waiting to see where the value of the 16t million is going now that the guiness book is out, and its a 2 digit to boot.
[Comment ID #53847 Quote]
Doin well brother, give me a call tomorrow if you get the chance. You have been good to your word so far about staying active with the posts. It’s good to see you here.
[Comment ID #53846 Quote]
that’s the only way to go….slow and steady wins the race. wasn’t all that long ago, i started with JD and Coke at 9am and finished at 2am the next day, yet was still find to go back and pick up the scoot at 9am. I obviously was not the only one drinking JD, but lets just say, it was not a busy sunday and over 3 bottles disappeared that day.
[Comment ID #53849 Quote]
You all make it easy, Good place to come and get away from the grind… Like I said before I’ve never felt so welcome. I’ll call you tomorrow on your cell.
Thanks again and I do mean that
I hear ya big, don’t feel you have to, there are several who don’t drink, yet they are still a big part of the party. We’re a brotherhood, everyones cool about it. Be true to yourself.
Good night all talk with you later
[Comment ID #53852 Quote]
I appreciate that, I didn’t quit do to a problem or anything, just kinda had enough. But a big party, no worries about driving, hangin out in Texaswith good friends, well, that maybe the reason for a nice weekend of just letting go. No problems climbing back up on the wagon on Monday, no worries there.
Just mapping out the trip back, and wouldn’t you know..i go right through Colombus. And if I plan it right, with very little work, I could be stoppingeither in Columbus or just short on Sunday night. Would lend nicely to a Monday morning visit. ๐
Look forward to hearing from you tomorrow, have a great night! I better be headin’off too. G’Night all, you too show, I wonder if you ever sleep too!
[Comment ID #53854 Quote]
Later Blane..have a good one
[Comment ID #53855 Quote]
lol..definately a night owl! this trip home is lookin even better. can stop at JJ’s to visit Bret and Leroy, then up to Big Daddy’s…
[Comment ID #53854 Quote]
Whatever you feel like doin, we used to stay over by the show, still would party with the rest of them, but then there was the ride back through Ft Worth, they show the Ft Worth boys a lot on COPS… not takin the chance this year. 100 yard walk to the hotel. When you meet MSK, ask him about his stolen truck adventure.
That would be cool, except I’m coming back from Houston on Monday. It’s a good show down there, maybe you could take the Southern route back and pick it up too. Hit it Saturday and head home. Still could meet you in Columbus then. If not, you can still stop by, SUe will be there and she could show you around.
[Comment ID #53858 Quote]
will have to check the southern route out. i thought about going there too at first, just have to make sure the schedule can fit it all in. plenty of time to finalize the trip home.
we’ll get thru there one way or another.
Let me know, really lookin forward to meeting you and the gang. Headed to bed, take care!
[Comment ID #53860 Quote]
same here. have a good one. ttyl
I hope they have some good places for some craft beer! I drink strange beers! I know there is a Flying Saucer that has over 200 different kinds of beer. Not sure how close the flying saucer is though to the Amerisuites or stockyards. We shall see. I am pumped beyond belief now!

A woman calls her boss one morning and tells him that she is staying home because she is not feeling well.
“What’s the matter?” he asks.
I have a case of Anal Glaucoma, she says in a weak voice.
He asks: What the hell is Anal Glaucoma?
She responds: “I can’t see my ass coming into work today.”

Don’t forget bigshow, a shot with the Tamales, put us on that list if you find yourself fallin of the wagon! Not that I”d encourage such a thing…….lol

Now thats a man with class….
[Comment ID #53877 Quote]
Well, either that or just a very expensive drinking habit….
[Comment ID #53775 Quote]
Just a word of advice. Anyone planning or even thinking about NMa nd who wants to stay where the action is at the Sandia, needs to reserve a room ASAP. I was already told the hotel is almost full already for that weekend.
[Comment ID #53798 Quote]
That sounds like a big job Eman! Be caqreful what ya say around here! lol
[Comment ID #53873 Quote]
Bret, it would be the 17th or 18th that he’s talkin about…
[Comment ID #53882 Quote]
Cool I will be there. If he would like to stop buy.
[Comment ID #53872 Quote]
I was just looking at that last night. What time you open on Monday. Figure I should stop just short of JJ’s for Sunday night. Get up hit JJ’s then CaJohn’s on Monday! Looks like I will make it there sooner than anticipated. ๐ This is gonna be an awesome trip….keeps getting better and better…
[Comment ID #53873 Quote]
You’ll be there then. It will be Monday 09/18! ๐
[Comment ID #53876 Quote]
No Kristi, you’d never encourage that ๐ hehehe… well if you can talk Huv and the 5th Tamale to make it down there, we can all do a shot together. I don’t count one party shot, fallin’ off the wagon ๐
[Comment ID #53887 Quote]
Store opens at 8:00
[Comment ID #53890 Quote]
Now that sounds like a plan to me then.
My plans were taking me thru Indy and Colombus on 70, so if I grab 74 just before Indy, down to JJ’s and then 71 back up to Colombus, that should work!
[Comment ID #53878 Quote]
Only when someone else is offering to buy ๐
It’s amazing how much Louis XIV can be slugged down in one shot when it’s free.
[Comment ID #53891 Quote]
That takes you to within 5 minutes of the chile fields and 2 minutes of my house (assuming up I-65 to 465 & 74). I’ll be chasing you up the highway it seems- I don’t get back till the 18th.

You know you want to. Besides, it is a business expense. You need mto network outside of the computer. Come on Huv, all the cool kids are doing it!
[Comment ID #53889 Quote]
No, it’s the second, third…..10th one that I wouod consider falling off the wagon! Hey I stopped drinking once…..it was the longest 15 minutes of my life! LOL ๐ฏ
[Comment ID #53895 Quote]
Unfortunately no Jim, I will be coming in from Arizona 44, into 70. Not doing the Houston show, gonna visit the bro.
[Comment ID #53893 Quote]
I now have a new mentor….go on Jim……..
[Comment ID #53900 Quote]
Any hotel suggestions in the area, i doubt i will make it into Cincinni, probably just shy of Indy or just through Indy. Unless you have a better suggested route coming out of Oklahoma City on 44. I see 64 in St. L. through Louisville, but my softwate took we through Indy.
[Comment ID #53904 Quote]
LOL.. i hear ya. If I just do one, I’m good. If I go for 2, then the gloves are off, and I will be climbing back on that wagon after the weekend. We’ll she see, what I feel like. I’ve quit for 2-3 months at a time before, several times. Saves alot of money to buy hot sauce with ๐
[Comment ID #53905 Quote]
Okay- 5 miutes from the fields then and 25 minutes to the house ๐

Bret, Dan is going to call you in a few minutes.

DK needs something to start his night—————Old Rooster
A farmer goes out one day and buys a brand new stud rooster for his chicken coop. The rooster struts over to the old rooster and says, ‘OK, old fart, time to retire.’
The old rooster replies,’ come on, you can’t handle ALL these chickens. Look what it’s done to me. Can’t you just let me have the two old hens over in the corner?’
The young rooster says, ‘Beat it! You’re washed up and I’m taking over.’ The old rooster says ‘I’ll tell you what, young stud, I’ll race you around the farmhouse. Whoever wins gets exclusive domain over the entire chicken coop.’
The young rooster laughs, ‘You know you don’t stand a chance old man, so just to be fair, I’ll give you a head start. ‘The old rooster takes off running. About 15 seconds later the young rooster takes off after him. They round the front of the farmhouse and the young rooster has closed the gap.
He’s already about 5 inches behind the old rooster and gaining fast. The farmer, meanwhile, is sitting on the front porch when he sees the roosters running by. He grabs up his shotgun and BOOM!, he blows the young rooster to bits.
The farmer sadly shakes his head, ‘Damn,…third gay rooster I bought this month.’

OK – now I know I’m losing it! What was your bribe? Man, going nuts trying to remember.
[Comment ID #54081 Quote]
The cap price, with correct items shipped.
[Comment ID #54080 Quote]
Hello Jodie, welcome to the freakshow! ๐
By the way huv, I know things, I don’t need to offer a bribe…
[Comment ID #54059 Quote]
Ellie told me they are almost booked. I don’t share a bed, so don’t look at crashing with me. Ask Kristi.
Hi John! I’ll call tomorrow.
Wow, 11:54 and Jim’s still up! Please do, I have a question or two.
[Comment ID #54084 Quote]
๐ฏ … on that note – I think its time for bed. I may need to call you tomorrow if your not too busy.
[Comment ID #54072 Quote]
Only if you are there laying across the front row…Yk, not to block the view for the driver! LOL
[Comment ID #54085 Quote]
IT would be just me and the 5th Tamale. We dont take mcuh room ๐
[Comment ID #54088 Quote]
OK, the pallets are gone so part of the crush is over. G’Night huv, I’m heading off too, G’Night ALL!
[Comment ID #54087 Quote]
Figured that would get your attention ๐ That would be ‘got up’ not ‘still up’. Little heathen pulled a fire alarm station in an apartment complex.
[Comment ID #54083 Quote]
I am the freakshow! LOL
[Comment ID #54090 Quote]
I don’t play nicely with others.
[Comment ID #54089 Quote]
Don’t worry Jodie, gonna satisfy all parties involved! Fair play and all!
[Comment ID #54093 Quote]
We will get along just fine then! Thanks for the pic on the Frapper page, cute! ๐
[Comment ID #54091 Quote]
G’nite CaJohn!
[Comment ID #53933 Quote]
Thanx Blane, but yeah, that would add probably 6 hours to an already long trip. But I appreciate the offer. You ride by any chance? You missed the Sturgis convo.

You guys must be getting rowdy in this thread cause I can’t view it at work because there are some choice words it wants to shield me from! I think it’s smartass ๐ I will be getting in early on Thursday so I will be available to help out those that need it until Jim gets there, then the work begins!
Good’m all
Good morning Bret, and everyone ๐
Happy Friday, and Labor Day Weekend!
For those in the NE, happy rainy days ๐
