I thought to give you all a story.. I hope its room for that as well here ;-) A GOOD STORY The story is told of a king in Africa who had a close friend with whom he grew up. The friend had a habit of looking at every situation that ever occurred in his life (positive or negative) and remarking, "This is good!" One day the king and his friend were out on a hunting expedition. The friend would load and prepare the guns for the king. The friend had apparently done something wrong in preparing one of the guns, for after taking the gun from his friend, the king fired it and his thumb was blown off. Examining the situation, the friend remarked as usual, "This is good!" To which the king replied, "No, this is NOT good!" and proceeded to send his friend to jail. About a year later, the king was hunting in an area that he should have known to stay clear of. Cannibals captured him and took them to their village. They tied his hands, stacked some wood, set up a stake and bound him to the stake. As they came near to set fire to the wood, they noticed that the king was missing a thumb. Being superstitious, they never ate anyone that was less than whole. So untying the king, they sent him on his way. As he returned home, he was reminded of the event that had taken his thumb and felt remorse for his treatment of his friend. He went immediately to the jail to speak with him. "You were right," he said, "it was good that my thumb was blown off." And he proceeded to tell the friend all that had just happened. "And so I am very sorry for sending you to jail for so long. It was bad of me to do this." "No," his friend replied, "This is good!!!" "What do you mean, 'This is good'? How could it be good that I sent my friend to jail for a year?" "If I had NOT been in jail, I would have been with you." ----- Situations may not always seem pleasant while we experience them, but it depends the way you see them... the choice is yours! ;-) ![]() |

Classic Caipirinha ![]() In an old fashioned or rocks glass, add: 2 to 3 (depending on size) key limes cut into thin slices (approximately 1/8 inch thick). You may want to remove any seeds before muddling ... unless you're fond of straining them through your teeth. Add 2 to 3 heaping tablespoons of cane sugar (the real stuff, not sugarbeet sugar) to the top of the lime slices (Brazilians like it VERY sweet). Muddle (mash) sugar and limes together well. Add 3 shots (ounces) Cachaça. Stir well to thoroughly dissolve the sugar, add cracked ice, stir, enjoy ... and think tropical thoughts! Serves 1 |

Wow! Now that's an excellent write-up, Domi. Thanks!!! What a lot of people don't know, is that the Brazillian Cachaça is itself a rum that is made from natural sugar cane. So the creation of the sugar cane mash is a most natural accompaniment to the rum. :]] This drink is the recent "hot drink" in bars around the world, much preferred to the original Mint Julep of days gone by. ******** Dear Moon of my Moon! What can I say of this? ![]() ![]() Except: Aw Shucks! <blushes> Thank you!!! ![]() ****** Now then Chris and Dune and others... Let me explain: You are still as much in the running with Arizona Moon as you ever were. She is just a dear friend and a good partner. But she is her own woman and her heart is her own. So Good Luck fellas! May the Best Man win!!! ![]() |
