It seems to be a hit whenever I make it.

I find most commercial lemon-peppers to have too much salt. I may took
a look at Ms. Dash' ingredients panel.

Nor did we - altho 34º was predicted.

I think she may have been born in Hawaii. She certainly is a champion for
Vets causes. And she abhors Cadet Bone Spurs.

I'll miss the green chile that my recently deceased friend Les used to
