Yum. The pecans. Pork rinds, not so much.

I'm not a huge pork rind buff either, but the salsa verde ones were really tasty. The nut mix is even better, though.

Understood. I can do the plain pork rinds. 0 carbs! And I did burn the first piece of bread in the toaster. But damn I love this cave.

and why absorb the wine? enjoy the buzz. I've been into the booze since this morning (bless my supervisor for that liter of Jameson). I'm watching the NatGeo channel. They're visiting the Twinkie factory.

Pecans are healthy (good fats).
Molasses is healthy (high in iron).
Eggs are healthy (high in protein).

Therefore pecan pie is health food.

Hooray! I should live forever.

Beer is healthy too. It's got grains in it and stuff.

I'm trying to return to buzzitude from spinnytude. So far it;s working. and YAY for wake forest on beating VT. tough year for them, losing their coach unexpectedly this summer.

Also, if i ever did get a tattoo, i donb;t think i could get one on my neck.

on preview, re: beer: yeah, and water.

Good call on the tattoo, chewie. I'd get the USDA Prime stamp on my tuchus, myself.

good idea! lotsa padding there, maybe not so ouchy. but you could bring yer jamesons.

and I would think how it's made would be more likely to visit the twinkie factory than nat geo but I guess itu's a free for all out there these days.

You put molasses in your pecan pie, BOP? Never heard of that version.

I adore pecans, too. They have such a wonderful flavor and they cook up well in a ton of different foods, sweet and savory.

When my grandfather was alive, he would often send us a large box via UPS, full of loose pecans he picked up from his trees in TX. Lord, they were fresh and sweet. I really miss that.
