Tonguespank Spice - Do You Like It Hot?

By



When I first heard of Tonguespank spices, I thought it was just another spice that you used when cooking. WRONG! Tonguespank spices are condiments that are used much like salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and hot sauce. I think you get the picture. In their literature, it states that one of their best comparisons would be "dry hot sauces". And this is what peaked my interest in trying their product.  


Hubby puts hot sauce on everything. So I thought this might be a nice alternative for us. We tried the Smoky Bourbon Table Blend and the Garlic Grappa Table Blend from the Liquor & Heat Collection (based on liquor-infused hot peppers). 

My first impression was wow the Smoky Bourbon smells hot, and the Garlic Grappa had a less intense pepper smell, very pleasant, but I could still smell a little of the 'heat'. 

I stir fried some chicken, and we gave it a go. Hubby went right in and sprinkled the Smoky Bourbon on his chicken. I was a little more reserved and tried on it on a small piece. It definitely had a 'bite' to it, but I liked it. It was a little hot for me. Hubby on the other hand thought it tasted 'pretty good'. And if you get a 'pretty good' out of my husband when it comes to food, then that's pretty much a two thumbs up. 

Next I tried the Garlic Grappa, and that was more to my liking. Upon first bite I thought, this is good and would be really good on eggs. Hubby also liked the Garlic Grappa. 

This morning I tested my theory with both spices on some egg whites. Both were really a nice addition to my eggs. And I will definitely be using these spices with future dishes, especially now that I'm trying to eat a little more clean (which means less sauces), and I'm finding that spices are a nice addition to dressing up my food.

2 Weeks Post Mohs Surgery

By
May 26, 2021 3:40pm  Finally, the phone call that I'd been waiting on. It was the Medical Center. ( Finally, we can schedule my surgery. ) She tells me who she is, and then tells me that she has a cancellation for tomorrow. ( Me stammering... )  "Ok, but I was thinking the end of June."   Then I hear "We just had a moment to look at your file. We really don't think that you should wait. We really think you should come in tomorrow at 8:15am" ( Me stammering again ) "Ok, I'll be there."  Wait, what? My mind is all over the place. I'm supposed to work. How am I going to get our son to school? Will my husband be able to go with me on such short notice. I expected this to be the end of June, not tomorrow. I'm not prepared! I was overcome with emotion.  May 26, 2021 Surgery Day I woke up at 1am with a horrible headache. By the time we arrived at the surgery center, I was definitely a bundle of nerves. I got checked in, went through the usual ...

Feel All the Feels Then Deal

By
Not what I expected when the phone rang. It was a routine dermatology appointment.  "Do you have any concerns?" “Yes, a small spot on my face. It comes and goes. Two weeks ago it had disappeared (again). So I'm actually glad that it’s back.”  It was the size of a pin head. It was teeny tiny. A nuisance, but not something that really seemed to bother me. “I suspect that it’s skin cancer.”  “So, we just burn if off, right?” “No, it needs to be cut out and sent to the lab.” I was not prepared for this. It’s on my lip! She’s going to cut a hole in my lip! She warns me that the shot is going to hurt and possibly a lot. She tells me this several times. (I’m thinking surely it can’t be that bad.)  I was wrong.  It hurt.  A lot.  I’m creeped out at the thoughts of her taking a chunk off of my face at the top of my lip. I’m even more creeped out as she tells me she’s going to burn it to stop the bleeding. Time and time again I hear the sizzle and the smell is n...

It's Been a Hot Minute

By
It's been a hot minute since I've written anything.... over a year. Between being a mom, full time student, and a substitute teacher during a pandemic, writing hasn't been a priority. More than once,  I've felt like I was in survival mode with classes. I didn't expect early block  to be so intense.  I admit that I broke down and cried several times this semester with feeling overwhelmed. But, I endured until the end, and I got straight A's for the semester. I'm proud of myself that I didn't give up. I am enrolled in 2 summer class, and 4 fall classes and studying for standardized tests that I must pass before I can begin my student internship.  I will be close to 50 when I graduate. Am I too old to do this? Who starts a career at 50????? I guess I do. I don't know what's going to happen when I graduate. I do know that I am enjoying the course work, and I'm enjoying being able to put what I have learned into practice as a substitute.  This sch...
