Spicy Blog Returns

Life tosses you curve balls; you adjust your stance and swing away. Strike out and you sit on the bench for a while, wondering how Charlie Brown must have felt. Then you play right field for, like, three dog years (that’s five months for most of us) while the other team bats around a couple of times. Picking daisies and forgetting to keep your glove on.

Then like magic, it’s your turn to bat again! You dig in…

So dig in, fans! The Chile Doctor is back in the box, and ready to hit the heat. Better yet, ready to Enjoy the Heat. Between now and July 1, new recipes, new opinions, and new food news will pour forth like a spicy Niagra Falls. (Would you believe, like a leaky Tabasco faucet?) And to tide you over until next time, a bit of news… (Okay, it’s really not that new. But I can’t call it “Olds” because that’s a car. Get it? I crack me up, sometimes.)

New Threat to Air Travel Security

Noxious fumes caused an Alitalia flight from Miami to Milan to make an emergency stop in Boston. The crew was “overcome by the odor and donned oxygen masks,” then declared an emergency and headed for the safety of the ground. The FAA determined the problem wsa caused by 10,000 pounds of minced onions in the cargo hold. The offending allium bits were removed and the plane continued on.

But not to worry, there’s good news from all this. The Department of Homeland Security has directed the FAA to add bulk minced onions to the “No Fly” list. Now doesn’t that make you feel a whole lot better?

Enjoy the Heat!
