Taste the Heat

A while back Joy went to a woman's conference for her work. They had a bunch of booths there and one of them was run by these guys at Taste the Heat. They were the only ones there with a big pot on a burner and were actually making their sauce right there in the convention! She got 2 bottles of their 357 sauce. It is pretty much the best hot sauce you can find anywhere.


I used the first bottle on everything... and I mean everything. It has this great smokey flavor that can make any food better. The second bottle I tired to covet as long as I can but I eventually ran out. I thought that they're office was in Austin and I kept telling myself that we were going to go up there and get some more. When I finally decided to find some more of that great hot sauce I found out that they make it literally down the street from my house! It's about a 2 minute car drive away!! I got to meet Tom, one of the two guys who make the sauces and try their new salad dressing. He gave me a bottle to test out at home and it's awesome! I'm going to make his Tilapia recipe tonight. I'm also sending some to my brother-in-law who loves hot sauce. Hopefully, he'll like this as much as I do.

We also have most of the Knutson clan here in San Antonio. That meant another trip over to grandma's to rub elbows with the cousins. Of course there's Hayden with the coolest pose in the front of the picture... yes, he does that on purpose.

Serenity had alot of fun too. She ran around with someones shoes on, which is one of her favorite pastimes.

We also had another little girl named Lilly there for her to play with. Lilly wasn't to crazy about Seri... but I think it was because Seri just wanted to play 'Let's tackle Lilly!'


After that I went with Uncle Ray and the FIL to go see the latest Batman movie. It was really, really good. You could tell that they really set up to have the Joker in the next one... whoops! It sucks too because Heath Ledger did a really good job. It's funny because I read a thing about how many people think that he deserves an Emmy for his performance, so they got a couple of actual Emmy judges who explained how it wasn't the right type of movie for the Emmy's and that they don't consider it Emmy quality. Yep... I guess if the Joker would have slept with a cowboy somewhere in the middle of the film it would have been in the bag. Too bad really.

I'm almost done with this semester in school. I have 90's in both classes, which is a new thing for me. I'm pretty confident that I'm going to sail through the finals but I didn't really learn a whole lot about anything. Oh well, that's college for you!

Hopefully, I'll get farther on my under-the-stairs project. If I do I'll get some pictures.
