Drink of Choice
-
We had tons of mint ready in the garden grounds(Chocolate mint, apple mint, spearmint, peppermint, lots a mint) in addition to the daily doses of fresh mint tea, I harvested a ton & Margaret made several batches of mint simple syrup & mint syrup. Very nice for a little different twist on things. We still have a lot of it dried from last year, so we did not dry any (yet) this year, especially as I have been swamped here lately.
calldoctoday You are a lucky man on having the help who can/wants to produce great product and the bounty of plants (in this case mint types). Yay for you.

My drink of choice the last couple of days has been copious amounts of water! The Florida sun and humidity is hard on a ND kid on vacation!

ND Mike Hang in there! Don’t let it get the best of you, so keep the water or (watermelon, cucumber, lime, mint, etc. coming) & most of all, be safe, but have lots of fun. You only get to go round once!

zbigjeff Thank you, I really appreciate that.

calldoctoday oh for sure. We have been running pretty hard the last two days. My feet and knees are pretty sore. Tomorrow we are going over to Clearwater for the day. The kids have never been the ocean so it should be fun.

The kids will have fun at clearwater. The beach is really nice there. However, the beaches up near Destin, Walton, Mexico Beach, Panama City are nicer. I am biased. There used to be a real good place to get seafood there, but I think they went out of business after about 50 years a few years ago. They were first class. My Dad used to swear that Clearwater Beach had the best seafood in the world. Fresh Grouper is a good thing there when in season & it is all around there, same with Pompano when it is in season. Try it cooked in parchment paper. Another thing that is hard to find there any more is the Cuban guy on a bicycle selling these really, really good crab balls wrapped in wax paper. They were really good, especially with a little Tabasco on them. I don’t even thing you can find them in Ybor City any more. If you see him though, make sure you stop him & get a crab ball for everyone, they are huge & delicious. More than anything though, be careful & have fun!

I am not sure why crab balls was censored, I cannot figure that one out.

OK, Crab Calls with a “B”???

calldoctoday I’d have to agree with you that the beaches up north there are nicer, but Clearwater is good. I prefer the gulf side.

I popped open a new bottle of Tennessee whiskey tonight. Its from Old Forge, a small distillery in Pigeon Forge. They originally did small batch single barrel bottles which I really liked, but now bottle this blended 100 proof. Has a great taste. It’s become a favorite to pick up when I’m in the Great State of Tennessee.

GWG8541 Ya know, I keep telling the chasers out there that there are a good number of unadvertised spirits out there that equal many of the big boys. Hopefully, you found one here in Old Forge.

GWG8541 Just something else for me to look for on my bike trip later this year. CI and whiskey, I think I am going to need a trailer.
