I pour out a shot glass full of bourbon, drink it, and pour the rest of the bottle in the chili. Not always the best chili, but nobody remembers.

My uncle used to be the chef for any mountain oyster parties my dad hosted. He'd soak them in a mixture of eggs and bourbon, before dredging them in flour and tossing them in the hot oil.

We always knew when the meal was ready because he'd be wasted. (every time he gave the oysters a shot, he'd have one too) As long as you don't think about what you're actually eating...they taste pretty good! :tongue

A dark, evil place.

Me, too.

And hold the chilies. (I haz a baby mouth.) But you can bring on that seafood. I've never eaten real American lobster. :( I don't know if our local ones taste as good as I'm told the Maine lobsters do. And crab! Hubby and I used to watch that series, 'World's Deadliest Catch' and, since those poor guys risk life and limb getting those crabs, the least I can do is try one. It's on the list for my next trip to the U.S. :)

Eagle, Idaho, during Mountain Oyster Festival should be on everyone's bucket list.

You're nuts! I mean, you're wrong . . . the best testicle festival is the Testes Festies at Rock Creek Lodge in Clinton, Montana, but if you attend this year, the downside may be having to put up with a lot of jokes involving Clinton and balls. :Shrug:

Hmmm. No JJ yet? *taps foot*

Doesn't he know we don't have a lot of time to wait around? :tongue

I'm babysitting dogs again. Dexter is about Haggis size, although a lot chunkier than a chihooie. (He's also a pervert. Likes to watch me take a shower. First one in if I have to go to the bathroom.) I'd forgotten that he likes to 'help' when you get out of the shower. When he started licking my ankle...

Everyone hush this minute. I can't sleep with all the racket going on in here. Don't think I won't get out the hose.

Hah. Lucky for you FB, it happened to be nap time.

Which happens quite often around here. ;)

When Dexter goes into the bathroom with you and stares at you in the shower, what he's really doing is uploading.


When he looks away and closes his eyes, he's transmitting.



When all other canines look like this.....

You're broadcasting selfies, Syn.

Just thought you should know.

Gail has just ruined doggie innocence in my mind. However, if they're sending pics of me around the dog net, I can only feel pity for the poor things! :tongue
