Locavores and former vegans hunting deer

All right dadnabit! I went to the farmer's market and bought two large bags of dried, red chili peppers.

I'm going to eat them all in memory of New Mexico, the Ancient Ones, and that time in seventh grade I drank a small bottle of Tabasco sauce on a dare for fifty cents to buy an Orange Crush soda.

The burn remains the same!
So there!!

It will probably help with my allergies too...

Here you go. I'm a little skeptical about some of the information here, but maybe not all of it.
WHFoods: Chili pepper, dried
Ehh, what do I know?

I have eaten bison, and recently found elk meat at my local co-op. These meats taste so much better than beef that I may not go back to it.

Don't hestitate because of being 62. Someone once said old age and
treachery win out over youth and skill ever time, right?

Looking at it another way, let's say you don't hunt. Not hunting won't
make you any younger. Go for it, but cautiously. . . a tree stand almost
demands something be worn beneath the kilt!

But I wonder. Should the hunting knife be worn as a dirk, or would a
sgian dubh, do? If that is properly belonging to another thread, the mods
can sort out the dubh's and don'ts.
