All-Star Thursday #488

[smokey the elder]

Fish sauce is very salty on its own!

Of course, if you mix it with some chili paste, garlic and lime juice you get something quite nice!

Richard went to all of this trouble to open the bar - cleaned it up a bit - brought all of these lovely red Solo cups - I guess the least I can do is stop by - and support him with an order for something in a large red
cup.

Hmmm, let's see - how about a cold lemonade with some raspberry vodka........and some real lemon slices.

I brought some sandwiches - chicken with lettuce and tomato and mayo - tuna with lettuce and mayo -
a few turkey with cheese and tomato too. Help yourself - and there is a large bag of chips too.

Hot enough for all of you???

I guess we have been lucky, most of the serious heat stayed well to our South. Then again, I do live here by choice! I'll have a sandwich, thanks Gini!

One funny thing about the red Solo cups - Emma Watson, who played Hermoine in the Harry Potter movies came to college in the US - Brown University - and she was surprised to see the red Solo cups at her first college party. She thought they were some standard Hollywood prop for movies, and didn't realize they are real!

Red Solo Cups?? - somehow I always associate them with beer only.

But seeing that's it's so early and I don't like beer anyway, I have some Kahlua Coffee K-cups for the Keurig coffee maker that I'd be willing to share. A fresh cup every time, but not in a red solo cup. Anyone care to join me while I sip while sitting on the front porch, watching the occasional car go by? Could anyone stand that much excitement???

Weather has cooled somewhat, but it's definitely still summer and warmer than just warm. Very tolerable compared to what it was.

I'll have to remember that, thanks!

Gini,

A giant red Solo cup filled with lemonade, raspberry vodka and a splash of soda water?

The Gini Fizz!

Done!

Oh man was it hot out here.

109 on the streets the other day...T-storms tomorrow!

I guess a RSC could be considered kinda iconie?

Pom,

RCS are a great ice breaker.

For some reason people will stand there and ask,"What are you drinkng?"

If you ever get the chance, watch people and the way they hold and drink out of them.

It's a fun to see.
